Just ordered one for myself! It's great for our Canadian knife laws! You're causing me to spend way too much money......but please keep making your awesome videos! All my very best!
Finally was able to grab one of these after months Thanks to Pvk Vegas posting them at like 12am eastern time sold out in minutes can't wait to get it in Hand YES!! FINALLY! 🙂👍🏼
I have the warncliff black with stonewashed blade and I love this knife. It's my favorite. This is what I imagined to be the perfect knife. I was one of the first to receive this knife. This knife is perfect in almost every way. Very good review by the way ! The only thing that maybe might make this better is if it had a 40 or 50 percent lockup on the button lock but Idk I'm not a knife designer and if that was a possibility I wouldn't want to compromise anything with this knife as that is perfect in every shape and form. Like I said this is what I imagined when thinking of a perfect knife. I would like to see other materials as long as it don't compromise the weight and of coarse price. I kinda maxed what I would spend on a knife but it definitely feels worth every penny that I spent. Very happy camper with the Protech Malibu!
Super solid review man! Really glad you are enjoying it and having some solid mileage with it! I’ve been rocking both the reverse tanto and the wharnie as of late. Thanks for the updates! -ProTech Matt (PS i love using KPL in mine. Oil the pivot, not the button and you’ll be firing it like a rocket!)
Hey just a question to protech Matt do all the protech Malibu have a number on the spine I just bought one and mine doesn't have a number on the spine it just says protech cpm20cv I don't know if only certain amount of them were numbered or what was the case so if you could clear this up thanks
I am interested in this knife for a long time. But it has been some time. Is this still the most fidgety knife for you? Or do you have anything else that is 'the most fidgety'? I love the shape, plunge lock, overall style but I wish it was a thumb-stud opening or opening hole.
I really like this knife and I want to get a hold of one , as soon as I can. I also hope they make other button lock manuals. Yes I live in NY land of no autos. SBR manual please. Great video.
@@beardedgear I can send you my Rubicon for a handling review. It has never been used other than opened and I would like it to stay that way. I do have a large number of knives that I have never used from Shirogorov's, CKF to CRKT that I would be willing to send under the same conditions. Id email some pictures that you could pick from.
I appreciate the offer man! I won’t have the time for a while with all of the other knives I have on my plate to review. But maybe when things calm down a little bit 👍🏻
I'm digging that knife, I've been into knives every since I was knee high to a grass hopper but I've never owned a protech but im definitely gonna have to get one
Great review dude, can’t wait for mine to come in. BladeHQ had a release on these last night and they went in about 15 minutes. Was able to get one thanks to Talon Sei giving a heads up on ig.
I got the email a half hour after the drop, sold out before I could snag one, but gp Knives’s sent me an email this afternoon and I snagged a acid washed version today!!!!! I was upset at blade hq, but gp knves came through!!!!!
Kira Bonora funny you mention that, I had an email notification set up as well and I never got one either. The only reason I got the jump on it was because I saw a post on IG about it.
Man l really want this one ...I just picked up an atom ... Now these are sold out everywhere l found one for 320 guess I'm going to have to wait for production run 2 Awesome review! 👍👊
I got an alert from GPKnives today saying they had the black/stonewash and the black/stone/acidwash (exclusive) in stock. Grabbed one of the exclusives. Not sure if they're getting more in soon or that was it, though.
Wow not a knife guy but watched your video and fell in love with the looks,watched your and a ton of other reviews and was not sure what to believe Especially yours, it’s nice to have a Viagra effect on you and I wasn’t sure is it was really because of the knife or if you were promoting for another reason I have to get one off of eBay because nobody has them in stock, I have been on email waiting list at knife shops and within an hour long they’re gone I missed out. I received it today and I am so happy with it I can’t put it down you weren’t kidding it’s amazing how well made this is, I’ll never have to buy a life again, and if I lose this one I’m just gonna get another thanks for the videos
@@beardedgear Never mind, I got caught off guard, you are 100% correct lol, I think I watched one of your other videos and I did not realize it was you.
@@beardedgear Haha, well I'm jealous either way because I live in Canada and this knife will take a while for any suppliers to get it in :( I bought the Spyderco Smock in the mean time. Thanks for the vids!
Just got my knife today... Absolutely worth every penny and flips like no other knife I have held!!!
The Malibu and Giantmouse Ace Grand have both shot up on my most wanted list thanks to your reviews. Two great knives under that sweet sub $200 range.
Glad to hear you’ve enjoyed both! I hope you’re able to get them soon, both great knives!
Got this configuration on the way, excited for it. See if it can top my waypoint, tough ask.
Yep...love that reverse tanto!! Great review brother!
Thanks buddy! 🤘🏻
I have been waiting for you to post this vid. Now I'm waiting for the Malibu Mordax comparison.
Hoping to film that today or tomorrow if I can make the time! 👍🏻
Can't wait. Your my new go to lol.
Haha thanks man!
Awesome. Protech is a great company and they hit it out of the park with this one. Great review!
Thanks buddy!

Man I need to get one of these just so simple and well done great review 👍

Thanks so much dude! And of course you’re balling with both blade shapes 😂

That’s. Awesome Bro I honestly don’t know much on Protech I hear there pretty sold knives great Video as Always 👍
Thanks man! And if you haven’t tried a Protech yet you should, they’re really high and they’re 100% US made. Plus they’re super fairly priced.
Watching you fidget with that knife makes me want to own it! Haha I definitely don’t have a knife that fidgets that well
This one is one of my most fun knives to fidget with for sure 🤘🏻
I really like this knife and I want to get a hold of one , as soon as I can. I also hope they make other button lock manuals. Yes I live in NY land of no autos. SBR manual please. Great video.
An SBR would be awesome as a manual button lock 🙌🏻
Have you seen the Spyderco Subvert? I had to have one and it is on the way.
I’ve got several videos up on the Subvert AKA the Danger Banana
@@beardedgear Thank You, I will check them out. How about original Rubicon?
I haven’t had a Rubicon yet, but I’d like to get one.
@@beardedgear I can send you my Rubicon for a handling review. It has never been used other than opened and I would like it to stay that way.

Not a huge fan of reverse tantos but it looks like a decent blade
It’s been really functional for every task I’ve put it up to so far.
Great review dude, can’t wait for mine to come in. BladeHQ had a release on these last night and they went in about 15 minutes. Was able to get one thanks to Talon Sei giving a heads up on ig.
Nice! Glad you snagged one!
@@beardedgear I had email set up for notifications at blade HQ. Nothing came. I missed out.
Damn you blade hq get your shit together.
Same here. Been waiting and never got an email. This morning I was pissed to say the least.
I got the email a half hour after the drop, sold out before I could snag one, but gp Knives’s sent me an email this afternoon and I snagged a acid washed version today!!!!! I was upset at blade hq, but gp knves came through!!!!!

Dude i need a malibu yesterday. Who can i blow for one??
I might take a handy with a reach around, if I come across another one I will hit you up my dude.
Holland Gabriel yea just shoot me a message that would be great
Interesting, the clip on mine is black like a DLC coating and not silver like yours. Must be that #2 special ;)
Must be! Haha I’m usually more of a black clip kind of guy, but this one really works for me 🤘🏻
I have the reverse tanto PR 1 # 125, and my clip is DLC coated, whereas yours is silver. Weird.
I think the number 2 trumps the clip color but man I love the black clip, it looks fantastic.
Where have you seen them available? Definitely looking for one
I’ve heard some of the big retailers have already done small drops, somebody mentioned that Bladehq already did.
I got an alert from GPKnives today saying they had the black/stonewash and the black/stone/acidwash (exclusive) in stock. Grabbed one of the exclusives. Not sure if they're getting more in soon or that was it, though.
Got mine at Southern Edges and in hand right now! It’s sweet! rwrd.io/ydxkn9o
I got mine from PVK Vegas about a week ago. Great dealer.

Love this knife, but I might have to wait till the next run...lol.
good looking hair cut and Beard trim! Dialed in
Not a bad looking unit I must say. Thank for sharing Bud. Big ThumbZ UP (27th) !!!
Where can I find one man??
Keep an eye on the retailers, sounds like some have already started dropping them
Got mine at Southern Edges rwrd.io/ydxkn9o
Then get me one,i have no connections
But do you really like it....😎
🤣🤣
2nd
There's multiple people with number 2, it's not actually the second one made from that production run, just an FYI.
That’s not the way it was explained to me, are you sure?
@@beardedgear Never mind, I got caught off guard, you are 100% correct lol, I think I watched one of your other videos and I did not realize it was you.
Haha alright cool 🤣 I was gonna say that my Protech contact confirmed it for me when I wasn’t sure 🤷🏼♂️😂
@@beardedgear Haha, well I'm jealous either way because I live in Canada and this knife will take a while for any suppliers to get it in :( I bought the Spyderco Smock in the mean time. Thanks for the vids!
