- Titanium handles have long been a staple of premium knives, but is it still the case? Check out some picks here: kcoti.com/3WnHMwo
With about 1/3 the weight of steel, titanium is both a hard and tough structural material. It’s non-magnetic, won’t rust, and it’s resistant to corrosive elements. All this does make it more difficult to machine and work with, which typically raises the cost of production. But we’ve found a number of great folding knives with this fine alloy for less than $100.

I think this is the first time Ontario has impressed me. That Robert Carter Prime is only 40 bucks on knife center's website right now and it's a damn good looking knife.
Vosteed is bringing the heat at $69 for that mini Labrador
Can we see a video with your top 10 most expensive knives in the store?
No
Benchmade haters would be disappointed to find Benchmade didn't make the list. 😂
You can spend 600 too a 1000 on a knife. I will give up 350 no more than that just isn't worth it. It's just a knife
@@jaybolton9117I'm with you on that It's interesting just to see what's out there though.
I mean, you can just go to their site and change the search filter to sort by highest to lowest price.
I know all about titanium 🙌 my whole neck front and rear on my neck spine is wrapped in titanium plates with20 screws into my spine from a hit and run drunk driver and I am so happy just to be alive and appreciate life so much more🙌
1:19 DCA with an all time quote. He thought we wouldn't notice, but we did.
I noticed.
@@twatmunro we need more people to notice. Nice.
@@turdferguson2874 We did mate.! All the way from Australia.
I like the Boker Tech-Tool 1 and the Fox Vulpis. Very nice.
The cheaper penguin even snaps open well with bushings. It's super smooth and stays sharp a long time
The OG penguin is definitely the best value/budget knife I have(of about 40 random folders)
I've been meaning to suggest to you guys the Exceed Designs TiRant as a great titanium handled gentlemen's style knife...although it is a replaceable blade utility knife, and from a smaller manufacturer than Knife Center would likely carry, but I think it fits in nicely with the theme of this video. High quality Ti construction and very low profile and low "conspicuous" factor in a true deep pocket carry flipper. May not be likely to be featured on the site or the channel, but as admirers of high quality knives, I would recommend to anyone looking in this category!
Love this video style.
a very nice collection indeed.
0:43, I maybe wrong, but I remember grinding titanium in welding class and it throwing bright white sparks, so I believe it is sparkling.
Wow less than 20 comments so far...
Last time I was this early, it was still "only two weeks to flatten muh curve"
1:06 hehe. “Doodoo”
@@elgatofelix8917 I need t p for my bunghole
I'd be willing to bet that these handles are titanium coated and not solid titanium. Has anyone ever done a metallurgy test on them?
Can we see a video of lock backs in different price brackets. I feel like with all the new locks it would be cool to see some classics.
Al Mar doesn't get enough credit.
When they moved production to China they took a hit.
Im fidgeting with my titanium Artisan Cutlery Blowback 😎
Cleaner than masturbation, but more expensive tho....
I have a Mini Labrador. Great little knife. Punches above its weight IMO.
The variant pe is a great knife for the money
Titanium isn't rare. Lead is rarer than titanium is. It's just a royal pain to extract from the ore, so when you pay for titanium you pay for the process. We haven't figured a simple and cheap way to extract the metal element the way we have with aluminum (using electrolysis) and there really needs to be a huge X prize for the person who figures out a cheaper way than they do currently. A bunch of people keep trying with electrolysis, but everything they seem to come up with isn't something that could scaled up to an industrial level of production and not include a lot of expensive chemicals. You usually have titanium mined in the proximity of where you mine the chemicals used in the soup to separate it from the ore and it's less than ideal. It also loves oxygen, so a lot of the process has to be done inside a sealed space, with a vacuum or inert gas (like argon).
Given weight, cost, and sufficient stiffness, why isn't aluminum more popular as a material? Superior even
For me... I own CS Code 4 with aluminum handle and it's slippery AF. Titanium is not much better, but G10 is doing well for now on the Native Chief
Cjrb has several options on titanium handled knives sub 90$. I believe kubey does as well
I'm really getting into slipjoints.
Hey DCA and crew! What are the thinnest knives you sell?
Maybe discuss the make-believe pricing of knives. How much is the wholesale price of a knife that starts at $150 and eventually drops to $35?
As long as you have those people who are willing to pay, they will never stop
Can you give a specific example?
Man that Carter Prime looks sweet , I've always wanted an overbuilt style titanium framelock bit don't have ZT money. It's a shame the logo and branding on the blade is so BIG! would that be later etched in? Doubt you would be able to remove it , especially on a coated blade. Or remove ALL the coating?? Haha I dunno at that price it's maybe worth just picking up to get one in hand. Enjoyed this video , more of these style please! Thanks , DCA , Thomas , and Seth V! I know you like to lurk in the comments 😂
I just got all the stuff to Titanium my PM2, that'll keep me happy for EDC.
Now for the QUESTION??:
Highest end butterfly knives under 150.00.
I feel like butterfly knives need more love!
That Al Mar Falcon looks exactly like the Lionsteel Skinny
Was this specifically intended to eliminate any cross bar type locks or is it just that titanium flippers tend to be concentrated on frame or liner locks?
Video idea - how about showing off some nice Micarta handled blades? All the variations , i enjoy the hell outta my micarta blades 😊
** handles before someone says 😂
Can we add to the Beat the Icon videos?
What are the benefits to titanium over aluminum?
Let's go!!!!
Hello. Greetings from Çanakkale, Türkiye. I love you very much and I watch your videos with admiration. I have a problem. I enjoy mountaineering and hunting. I have been looking for the Buck 537 open season skinner hunting paring knife in Türkiye for years and could not find it. I found it on a site in Turkey and it turned out to be a scam. I really want the Buck 537 open season skinner knife. Could you help me on this matter? I wish you good publications.
I feel like I carry my non titanium knives more then the titanium ones. Not sure why but o gravitate to g-10 and micarta.
Have you ever done a video of light knives? Maybe some are Ti but obviously other materials can be lighter. Basically a video of great EDCs that won’t weigh down your pocket.
Beat the Icon on Bugout kinda fits your description.
@@redlion145 I know the Bugout is light, I don’t know about the ICON or the BEAT.
Hey, what happened to the Monty Phyton esk show opener? Gotta do another. Please.
Which episode had that?
That is used on the KniFAQ videos posted on Saturday.
👍
I disagree that the liner/frame lock is right-hand biased. It's as easy to move the thumb left as it is right.
You could argue that it's left hand biased: when disengaging the lock the left thumb continues in the same direction to get out of the way of the closing blade; the right thumb has to reverse direction.
As a lefty, I've found them to be absolutely right-hand biased. Perhaps in ideal conditions, with a knife that is particularly suited to your hand shape, a liner lock might open "as well" with the left as with the right. But I sincerely doubt it'll ever open any easier, or any quicker with the left than with the right. I would challenge you to open and close a knife like the CRKT CEO with the left hand.
That's what it means to be right-biased: not that it's impossible with the left, just that it's much, much easier with the right. Compared to "ambidextrous" locks like crossbar, shark/lockback, or button locks, liner and frame locks are clearly less lefty friendly.
I was only talking about closing, not opening.
As for the rest, agree to disagree?
As a lefty I also disagree with you, when I’m closing a right handed liner lock or frame lock it is extremely uncomfortable and my thumb can easily push away compared to pulling the frame lock towards me while trying to close the blade. I have many left handed customs and a few left handed CRKS and a dedicated left handed knife is wayyyy better than trying to make do with right handed mechanisms
Interesting. When I close mine (I have several) I tilt the knife to the left so I essentially push down and left. It's honestly not difficult. It's certainly easier than with my right, since I am a lefty.
NIce video, but I don't think titanium is stronger than steel.
Cowabunga.!
My knife has titanium handles cost 12.99.
Did you get it off AliExpress?
@@K.V.P14 no. It's a Camillus , good knife
Haha, you said dodo.
I bought the magnacut blur lock does not fully engage they tell me they want a picture if it I want to return it amd my money back bought from you bw cause I like your video content only to have a bad taste left in my mouth now
Very disappointed
Change the title to Chinese knives for 100 bucks
Just bought a Kizer Feist with titanium scales and S35VN for $84 (they're 50% off right now) just sayin'
"For a NICE $69" 🫡
