I was watching one of Nutnfancy's videos and saw your video on the side. I initially thought you were going to trash Nutnfancy, and was relieved to hear that you had a wonderful experience with him. Not many people help out strangers. There should be more people like him.
You sir, are a rare breed now a days. Sensible, humble, factual, intelligent and clearly a huge heart. Great video, even though I was completely uninterested in any drama. Thanks very much.
Nutn flew in yesterday to film and visit my wife & I for his, "Impressive Humans" Series. Completely surprised us! I try each day to help our Vets, and many others but I'm disabled & dying from a Tumor in my heart. He handed me his personal Cold Steel AK-47 knife & he gave my wife a new Spiderco Dragonfly and $30 for us to go eat. What a guy, with a huge heart of gold. To just fly down to SE Texas to visit w/ us. This has never happened to us. We ask for nothing in return for what we do.
when someone makes a youtube video about another youtuber it's usually a hate speech. and honestly i was expecting it in this case.. im pleasantly surprised. you're both really nice guys.
The UA-cam gun community and big channels are so important. Whether you like a person or not, we should all agree that these channels are promoting responsible gun ownership, which is critical in times like today. Thanks Jeff and everyone else in this community.
I met Nutnfancy in January 2013 at a Gun Rights Rally at the Utah State Capitol. He is a genuine guy and I admire his philosophies and knowledge. He is personable with his fans and even with his busy schedule, he stays true to the mission of The Nutnfancy Project. I also had the opportunity to meet both of his sons at Blade HQ in Utah. Thanks for your kind words about our friend, Nutnfancy.
I don't usually comment on your videos, but I want to say that I appreciate all the time you put in to them, and I appreciate your story and your insight. Thanks
I don't think I have ever heard or even watched a video like this. It was actually very interesting to hear the perspective of someone who actually has multiple subscribers and seems like such a down to earth guy. I appreciate the maturity and clarity...even just in regards to youtube in general....Well done.
I've always loved nutn and this just blows me away, he's always come across to me as a really genuine and generous person who wants to give back but I never would have imagined something like this. Makes me all the happier I've been supporting his channel all these years
I just started watching Nutn's video's a few days ago. I've been a denizen of the interwebs and UA-cam for years and a firearm collector/shooter. I've watched a whole lot of reviews by a whole lot of people. I'm a big fan of Hickok45 and Iraqiveteran8888 and a few others. Well I finally started watching TNP videos. He seems to put a LOT of research and practical testing into his review subject. I like the way he talks about it, has talking points, etc. The way he relates stuff. It seems real. And laid out by somebody that knows pretty well what he's talking about. I don't think he comes off as a douche at all. But you get a large enough group of people together and you'll start to come up with haters. And like the saying goes. Haters gonna hate. It doesn't surprise me at all that you have had such a good experience with him. He seems like the real deal. I'd really like to take a few runs on one of his run and gun courses one day. Also, Just subscribed to your channel :) Take care
Nutn is in no way full of himself. How many times you hear him say "I'm not an expert in _____, I'm just a gear tester..." What he is, is happy, energetic, comfortably with himself, and very confident about what he knows about from experience. People tend to be jealous of truly self-comfortable people. He has my respect, as do you. I appreciate the openness and honesty in this vid, so...subbing. (I'm 50 BTW)
"Nutn is in no way full of himself." You haven't seen all of his videos then, mate. Check out the video on how obsessive and angry he is about his fan's "systems" and "testing for their readiness" it was absolutely ridiculous. The tone in his voice is abrasive as fuck, which Idon't hold against him. Referring to himself in the third-person constantly is annoying. Hell, I live probably an hour from the dude and would love to go shooting with him, I just don't know how long that feeling wouldl ast once there! There's a difference between being comfortable with yourself and full of yourself and you are in no better a position than I am to say what NutN really is. We just both have our opinions. Though it would, ironically, be full of yourself to be self-assured that I am most definitely wrong ;)
He's a good, generous, humorous guy, and a good dad to his kids, which you can tell, from how they interact. There is footage of him in the cockpit, flying a KC-135 tanker, on deployment, etc. As far as "full of himself," he makes fun of himself, and accepts his son's jabs, since it's all in good fun.
As a fellow UA-camr (with a much much smaller channel), thanks for this video. When you started talking about how tough it was to run a successful channel, I was thinking, "Yes!! Someone else understands that it's not all roses."
Those "hand people". First I made my videos, showing my knives, people kept saying bs like "why your hands are hairy?", "your hands are not manly enough", etc. Then I was like, ok, I'm going to buy gloves and wear them for my videos. Now I get comments like "why don't you show your hands", "why are you hiding your hands, are you a criminal?", "you are wearing gloves? you must be a psychopath" and such comments. Damn, I can wear my gloves or not wear them, either way, I get crappy comments time to time about my hands or the gloves. It's hopeless. haha
+thatmaninblack I would honestly delete comments that are that stupid. Troll comments don't matter. You can do whatever you want it's your channel after all.
I have to say this. I am a 45 year old man living the married life in Wisconsin. Your view on Nut N Fancy is the best thing done in the best way I have encountered in any of these types of forums. kudos to you sir for your strong convictions. I have gained a lot of respect for you for doing this. I to enjoy Nut N Fancy's videos. I do not always agree with his or your points of view, but hold no animosity towards either of you. I do not have a you tube video channel, and probably never have one. I love both edged weaponry, and firearms. I have respect for the way the two of you do what you do. It takes a lot of guts to come on a public forum and speak the truth about what you feel about another human being, So once again, kudos sir and keep doing the things you do. I am sure you will be successful in your endeavors.
Jeff, thanks for posting this. It's important to say things like this. I like Nutnfancy too. He talks a lot. A LOT. But I like that too. He speaks his mind and says all the little things in the back of his mind, and I find it refreshing that someone is so open these days when so many are so worried about what others think of them. And it's nice to hear from people who have as many hobbies as I do!
I enjoy watching people Like you, nutn, and sootchOO, you all come across, as normal and genuine! I can not understand how people that are proven frauds, that use poor grammar and foul language while threatening to "Kill people" manage to con so many people into believing them to be omnipotent. Keep up the good work!
The people commenting on this video are pissing me off. I've been watching Jeff's videos for 6 years and he has come so damn far with his channel and I'm legit proud of him. The comments below are all from naive individuals who need to educate themselves on who Jeff is before they post these ridiculous comments.
You actually are the first one to call me that. And yeah it is surprising. There's nothing wrong with defending a guy who I don't think deserves the comments I am reading below.
50 bucks? Ill never forget this too bro. Character- thats a powerful word. I usually wont watch an entire video, but this 50 dollar story WOWD me. Just think-that was a one on one thing, (unless nutnfancy made a video about how he sent a stranger 50 bucks... ) But he did that to bless you. They say its more of a blessing to give than to receive. Like, if you naturally are selfish, sometimes you can feel empty. So try giving instead of always wanting, and that just might fill you up. I am drawn to your character bro. I like your style, and in person you would be a cool dude to be around. Anyways, you shared some really real stuff man, so Im gonna subscribe bro. I am not really about you tube subscribing and uploads and reviews, I usually hit youtube for information on something, but I could def watch a knife review by you. So I might as well ask ya- got any reviews on high end micro tech china clones bro? Something other than a vespa combat trodden review.. Like in the 50-70 dollar clone range.. Armament and knives- I like those too. Good stuff. Now here is something to think about. We usually like someone if they are likable or show love and respect to you. Thats easy and natural. But can you love someone still, unconditionally and genuinely, even if they treat you like crap and hate you? That is near impossible, who does that? Friends, Id like to introduce to you the character of Jesus Christ. If you guys don't know Him, get to know Him. In all of our life, at the end of it all, THIS my friends, is the only thing that will matter. Sorry CL about that, but had to plant some type of seed here. GB! (God Bless)
I started watching your videos when I moved back to the U.S. from Hong Kong and you videos have helped me not feel so upset about the move and now I watch you videos every day. You have no clue how much they have helped me.
There are some people that are so rude on youtube, so I see what you mean. I will check out your channel, I don't know much about knifes, but I like knife reviews. As far as Nutnfancy goes, something would be wrong if you agreed with everything he says! We all need to think for ourselves, but he seems right most of the time. I only know him from watching youtube, but I sure would not turn out a chance to hang out with him and do a run and gun. A person could learn a lot. Besides his knowledge of firearms, I respect his values, at least what I perceive as his values. I don't know him personally. God, Family, Country, respect for others, kindness, coming to the defense of victims, and guns. I like all that. Those are positive attributes that many people have that make me happy for them and our society.
In my 56 years usually I find the reason for negative comments or railing on someone or their work is 1) Jealousy &/or 2) their own insecurities. Just subd to your channel and look forward to your past and new vids.
Very well done Jeff. Though I think Nutnfacy videos are very long I appreciate all that he does in putting out good information on all different products which allows us to make a more educated decision. I hope both of you keep up the good work. The story of him sending you the $50 towards a new gun shows me what type of characteristics he is made of and in my book he is "ok"! I would never forget someone when they have treated me nicely, it goes a long way!
What was the point of the video? Not too familiar with nutnfancy but for him to send you 50 bucks when he was relatively unknown is extremely generous, and rare.
The guy doesn't have a bad bone in his body! His obsessions and opinions have led to great success as a UA-camr. He is a great family man, has a large number of close friends and associates, and he is passionate about sharing his knowledge and opinions on his reviews of gear. I am jealous of him because of his passion, his organization, his originality and he probably gets numerouss freebees and I'm sure he makes more than a little money with his enterprise. His views on safety and safe motorcycle riding are spot on greatly appreciated. My only criticism of him is I don't often have 40-50 minutes to watch his entire posts. For me, and my schedule, he's just a bit long winded and that's ok if you've got the time. Good luck to you and your continued success. That was a really nice post!
I dont think I would consider what Hicock45 does as a review. He never states that he is reviewing something either. He is just a guy who loves firearms and is sharing his love with the viewers. The man must have fired hundreds of thousands of rounds throughout his lifetime, and even to this day he still smiles and gets a kick out of whatever he is shooting. That in itself shows that he is just having fun. @kashman24 's comment is pretty immature however, and unnecessary.
+bobby wasabi I would consider what hickok45 does more of overview a firearm and just sharing his opinion. he usually doesn't keep the guns that he gets, as he puts them back up on auction. I love his channel for the simple reason that if I want to see a good overview of a firearm I'm interested in, I can trust that he is going to show how it works and is going to shoot it. then I will go deeper into the rabbit hole for more info.
+kashman WTF ?!?!? He's just a sheep obsessed by weapons ... That's what we commonly call a kid. Don't you understand weapon are made for killing people so talking about , showing them etc ... Is awkward ?
You can't talk about rifles and guns without thinking of why they are made ... I've never tried a gun ( i will because i like shooting sports like bows , blow guns , knife throwing , darts , pool , whatever is about aiming and precision...) . But we don't live in 1944 ... There is no war , so common people don't need things that can kill so easily to "defend themselves" from ghostly threats... And stop . You have one of the worst statistics of murders by gun there is no need to debate. Country without guns have way less murders . That's simple. I dont want to go to the market with grandmas and stupid sheeps carrying guns ... I don't want to have mefiance about people , I want to talk and have fun with them. Sorry 4 my english i'm a little bit tired so I'm searching for words i perfectly know... Ps : In my country if you love weapons ( like me... But not so much guns i like swords , i do a lot of nunchaku , not bad with sticks, throwing knives etc...) . People think you are an immature kid . And they are right i'm agree with them because i know myself. I understand it's a fascination from childhood ... Because kids think weapons make them mens ... I can assume and have fun of myself , AND at the same time being proud because i'm good with nunchucks... ps number 2 ;P : Guns have no glory , no honor... It's too easy .
Watched this video on an impulse because I've gone to nutnfancy a number of times for perspective on different topics. I was impressed with your general "genuine" and "live and let live" attitude. Both you guys take a lot of words to get an idea across at times, but through those words you both inspire more trust and credibility than most. Thank you for your example.
Cutlerylover, BRAVO!! I just came across this video you've produce from a search result of nutnfacny, as I have recently been watching many (soon to be all) of his videos and I share a VERY similar mindset and opinion on firearms, knives, and gear as he does. As a result of this positive video you posted, I have subscribed to your channel and look forward to viewing all of your videos as well. Thanks for being a stand up guy unlike many of the arses on UA-cam (sorry James Yeager).
his 'philosophy' videos are what makes his channel worth watching. I like his reviews, but I'd much rather here about how he was raised, how he raises his kids, and how he lives his life. that dude has done a lot of awesome shit and has some great advice for people willing to listen.
Justification of killing the innocents , attacking a less developed countries based on selfish political interests is not a philosophy , it is Barbarism.
nutnfancy's primary philosophy is to avoid talking about jeff cooper, 1911's, the fact that HK dominated military contracts over Glock for 2 full decades, hi-cap 1911's.... and his #1 and #2 most reviewed brands are ruger and kel tec.... consequently in 2014 Ruger acquired Kel Tech. Nutn is also big on smith wesson and walther products (they have a strategic alliance).... so when nutn says he's unbaised or not bought, think twice about that stupid Glock Fanboy. You have to be a glock fanboy to review a Glock knife before something iconic like a spyderco police model. Take for example nutnfancy's primary "close to engage" series where if you look up jeff cooper and his color-coding of threat levels, nutnfancy directly references that without attributing it to jeff cooper or giving credit where it was due. Likewise with nutnfancy whenever discussing "the scout rifle concept" he ducks and avoids jeff cooper as quickly as possible. Nutn claims he isn't bought but his first colt review was an old police rifle a full decade after his channel was launched... I find it funny that nutn calls himself a "revolver guy" when he doesn't have a 44mag review or a .500 review or any python/anaconda reviews at all. It's like none of nutnfancy's friends shoot at all. It's pretty hard to shoot that regularly and not know someone with any of those guns. I find it funny when nutnfancy claims he _prefers_ SIG over Glock when all of his criteria are listed ergonomics in about 3 or 4 different categories and "value" is noted as in (X acquired at Z price = Value as in ignore overall Quality altogether because he always factors in price intentionally to bais to Glock) as well as the accessory market always being factored in simply because Glock refused to address the myriad of problems they've had including on the 5th Gen pistols still offerring plastic sights at which point nutnfancy balks at it just as he did in his early SIG video discussing the recoil spring that might break after 5,000 rounds... the same anecdote is given "most people will shoot only a box or 2 worth of ammo out of them so it doesn't matter" ..... yeah. Suck that up mr. average nutn sub. lol and we see every Glock model under the sun reviewed by nutn but do we ever see him review a P229? NOPE! Can you spell liar? I really feel sorry for ANYONE who takes nutnfancy seriously as he's the most toxic form of Glock Fanboy. Even on Glocktalk dot com you can google search for HK MK23 vs G21 and find out that when nutnfancy claimed in his G21/20 video that had the 10mm and 45acp guns reviewed nutn said he thought the Glock should've beaten out the HK MK23.... the pistol that basically invented and passed all of those tests before Glock Fanboys could try to reproduce them and at the same time actually offering match grade accuracy - something nutnfancy just loves to leave out of the discussion.... which is why his bullet points include "ergonomics" tactically spread out and talked about ad nausium. LOL even on Glocktalk dot com we find that the users there say "there is no comparison" HK is the ultimate pistol, period. As for nutnfancy giving guns a bad rap over weight it's anecdoted by Jeff Cooper that if you stop carrying a gun because of an extra pound of weight then you clearly don't understand the importance of exercising that right. So when nutnfancy docs points for that or "not enough firepower" as if you'll be standing in once place for 4+ full seconds to dump an 8 round mag.... lol your philosophy on such becomes bankrupt when your arguments revolve around ergonomics - I will note nutnfancy never reviewed or made light of a hi-cap 1911 either. Nutnfancy has to be the most (successful + dishonest) firearms channel ever. I'm not joking. But hey, don't take my word for it. Go find nutnfancy mr.knife channel first lol... go find his balison review. It won't even be one that you can swing open like a real balisong lol. As people have previously said about nutnfancy, "nice try but you still suck". ....and yes what you just might have read is only the tip of the iceberg.
Its funny when he is talking about glocks and how even if you don't know about guns you know what one is. I worked with a guy for about a year that was a former gang banger of some kind from florida with a rap sheet as long as his arm. He called ALL handguns glocks. It took me a while to realize this, I thought he just really liked glocks lol. Then one day he showed up at my place so we could ride to work together and I showed him my handgun. He said it was a "sexy glock" and that's when it clicked. It amazed me that he didn't know it was a brand name.
Our oldest, who is current active duty, about to be a veteran swore to me that my Springfield Armory XD, is a Glock. I told him over and over, it wasn't. I even went and got it (safe first, obviously) to prove it to him and while looking at it, he swore... it was a Glock. I showed him the logo on top of the slide, he swore it was a Glock. This is why... I hate Glocks. Well, that and I don't like shooting them... don't like the grip profile and the way they sit in my hand.
I agree completely BigDog. Ive never fired one that I thought was comfortable to shoot. Ive had guys tell me "oh if you take it out a few times and get used to it youll fall in love with it." Well, maybe but why should I force myself to get used to something I don't like just to please the Glock gods?
Love the springfields, have to agree the Glock feels uncomfortable. I'd rather have a gun I feel naturally comfortable with than have to get used to something I don't like.
Hey bro, I highly respect the fact that you took the time to make this video, and because of it I have subscribed to your channel. I'm sure I would have found you eventually because we share the same interests, but I found this video from watching one of his. I think everyone should respect the amount of time that you guys put into this project, I'm a 43 year old full time student working on my Bachelors in Theology and Psychology, yes I know odd combo, but anyway I know that I would not have the time to do what both of you do, and the fact that you do it with little incentive and with the viewers in mind, again is highly respectable, and appreciated by me I and I hope many others. So obviously you don't have just kids watching your videos and even though I'm sure you do have a lot, I think it is great that they would be interested in and watching your videos vs. playing video games or watching music videos. I am shocked that almost 800 people have given this video a thumbs down, that is so immature and childish, you didn't have to make this video but you did, and it was an honorable thing to do. So thank you, I look forward to watching more of your videos. Take care.
Off-topic, but theology and psychology can go hand-in-hand with each other. They're different subjects, but both can be observed in tandem in one's personality and mentality.
The reason I have issues getting through nutn's videos is because they're SO.DAMN.LONG. But I like them though, he considers everything possible when he says something.
I have to say I just watched one of nutn's videos on fire starting and after watching him clumsily use a hatchet(probly would have cut himself if not for the mechanics gloves), could not use a fire piston with instructions and generally not looking very comfortable doing the tasks he was doing, I was thinking wow this guy is a real doofus but after hearing your story I can't help but like the guy a little more. I guess we didn't all grow up in a house that burned firewood for heat. All the tasks involved with that are like second nature, splitting, chainsaw's, kindling, starting fires and everything else I can't think of right now.
I was watching a Nutnfancy knife video, I'm a longtime subscriber of his and love all his video's of knives, guns and gear. I seen this video on the sidebar and seeing " Cutlerylover " I thought hey another knife lover I have to watch. This was an awesome video and I really liked what you said and I can see your an honest and straightforward person so I subscribed and liked the video. I'm looking forward to watching your video's thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge about knives.
Nutnfancy is a great guy. I wish more channels had the guts to stand for the U.S. Constitution like him. My only gripe? He can be a bit long-winded. Thank goodness that UA-cam has this fancy new feature - you can jump to anywhere in the video by clicking on the play-head.
Where did I say that I don't like nutin's obscenely long reviews? I am sub'ed to his channel and "view" almost every video he puts out, including his hour long table top reviews. Chill the fuck out dude.
timmian85 Where did I say that I don't like nutin's obscenely long reviews? I am sub'ed to his channel and "view" almost every video he puts out, including his hour long table top reviews. Chill the fuck out dude.
ambee514 Then whats the gripe? if you like it its a non-issue. Its what he does, and if you like him you like "it". Dont fucking backtrack... Just say it gets on your nerves, i was just giving you some advice. Dont be ungrateful just because i fucking say fuck alot, thats fucking retarded..
I appreciate your sincere expression. We need more people who are balanced, mature, understand everyone has a shadow and gold because we are human. How many people are giving of themselves to ADD to peoples lives. How many people have the courage to put themselves out there. BRAVO!!!!
props to you! ive been subscribed to you for a little while, but def gonna start watching you a lot more. (btw im one those subs that dont participate much in comments, but i love your knife vids!)
My only real beef with Nutinfancy is that he's soooo long winded. I don't have the patience for 1 hour long You Tube videos. No doubt he knows a lot of stuff about all kinds of guns, and as a new shooter, learned a lot of things from him over the years. I followed nearly every recommendation he made for improving the Glock 17. I subscribed to his channel but rarely watch his stuff anymore.
pellcio all he ever needed to do was index his videos. If his description looked like: Weight 1:05 POU 10:30 Value 24:40 nobody would have a problem with him talking for so long.
Anyone that sends someone they don't even know $ 50 to get them started with something they're interested in without expecting anyhting in return is golden in my book! Thanks for bringing that to light CL!
Great video! I really rate Nutn's videos, along with Hickock and Eric and Chad at IV888. I'm from the UK and just wish I could make it over to the States sometime and have a shoot with some of those guys. You've just gained another sub from me too buddy! Take care, from the UK!
Dude, I have never seen your videos until this day, it's really cool to hear such story, this video lets us know you are a really cool dude, I will watch all your videos and like them all!!
Well, I'm a new subscriber, and i'm the ripe old age of thirty-nine... watched a lot of your videos, just recently subscribed... great stuff.. keep'em coming...
Why do people have to be so negative? I like TNP and people who just say and do stuff is annoying! I like his videos because he gives good info, he shows the pros and cons. and he gives good info. but then you have people like TheYankeeMarshal. That guy just talks a lot and does not show anytihnig to back up what he is saying. I pointed this out to the guy and he verbally attacked me and was mad because my Kel-tecs work. I did not attack him back because I am not that kind of person. But if you are going to make an accusation you should back up what you are saying. Not call people names and call something trash without proof.
We are talking about the same guy right? "guns, gear, politics and STUPIDITY". complete with old dude wearing pink panties that he purchased for himself at walmart?
Hi, I just came across your channel because of Nutnfancy. So now I subscribe to both of you guys. You do a great job and I really like your videos. And just for the record I am not 12 years old, in fact I just turned 61. I am still learning thanks to guys like you and Nutn. Peace, Rob
I liked Nutnfancy for his knife and gun vids, and didn't mind a certain amount of political commentary, even when I didn't agree with it. What broke me was when he went full-bore political, especially after Newtown. When I say 'full-bore political', I don't mean he started putting his politics in everything he did; just that, after the first couple of political vids, I got where he was coming from and didn't need to watch more of it. I'm not jealous of him; I have no interest in putting him down; I don't hate him; I appreciate the work he puts into his videos, and the passion with which he speaks about things important to him. I simply unsubscribed when I thought he went too far into right-wing political commentary. He certainly can do what he wants with his channel; I certainly don't have to watch. Thanks for a good vid, Jeff. Keep up the good work.
As someone who is completely tired of the leftwing media outlets and watching lefties force feed the sheep on MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, Headline News, Grammys, Nobel Peace Prize, LA Times, NY Times; nutnfancy is a breath of fresh air in comparison to staleness entrenched in everything else.
AbuGrabIt I like how you conveniently ignore the other half of domestic media, including the most watched cable news channel in the nation by the most powerful media mogul in the world. But hey, don't let me interfere with your delusion of self-victimization.
Well, I knew this day would come. Computers have done exactly what I thought they would do, they have separated PEOPLE from reality. This guy talks and talks and talks, and what is the point?? On and on he rambles, and so does the other guy (Nut'n), what is the problem they have?? These young people spend too much time sitting in a room fiddling with a machine and have forgotten or never learned how to interact. Bunch of strangers "talking to" another bunch of strangers about nothing. It is one monologue against another monologue. This guy talks all day and does not say anything.
I unsubbed from Nutnfancy about 3 years ago. He may be a nice guy, IDK. I do know his political views go strongly against mine. Anyone who still believes we can "vote em' out" is part of the problem. Even Nutnfancy.
nateo200 Because in the US there is no democracy. Its fake. Its set up to look like we have choices when in reality we don't. Thats why I said if you believe you can vote them out you are part of the problem because you believe the lie.
dragonballjiujitsu not part of the lie, but alot of people are ignorant to the fact that party agenda trumps democratic choice of the people, instead of politicians shaping thier beliefs to serve us, we shape our beliefs based on them. Democracy works well, but only when the politicians are representatives and not politicians for the sake of power. Also lol at this new chain of comments, happy new year yall
Ooh, look at you being all hostile and such. Calm down buddy, i was replying to the guy before me. When did i suggest standing by was an answer? I believe the exact opposite. But voting and participating in our great nations election process... well it doesnt garuntee the fishy sonofabitch we vote in won't misrepresent us, or screw things up. We, unfortunately, live in a time where superpacts and campaign money trump all. Bleh
Very much appreciate your honest face to face message in this vid. You UA-camrs go through a lot and you communicated that very well. Commenting as a 38 yr olde Aussie...just so I can ad to your non-tweener demographic on record. Cheers Bruz.
I try to stick up for him all the time. I have no idea why people don't like him, to be honest. I love the guy and his thinking and videos. Minus the hi-point one. You got a new sub from me. :)
nutnfancy knows what he's talking about, but he hasn't figured out how to condense that into a practical 5-15 minute review like 99.9 percent of the other reviewers on YT. This is why I no longer subscribe to his channel. Nothing against the guy's knowledge, he's just long winded and boring.
attananightshadow He goes on too long with his long winded musings, which can be charming in a way. I suppose that you have to like his style to watch it consistently.

alot of people appreciate an in depth review. nutn is probably the best at this. and I think he's pretty funny too. you can always skip forward and backwards. you can't do that on a video that just doesn't have that information unfortunately
He's said in his videos "if you want a 10 min review there are plenty of them on UA-cam" that is why I subscribe to his channel not a lot of people go in depth @nutnfancy
OH MAN; I was coming to this video thinking to myself I couldn't believe I was giving it a view. Thank you for the story and speaking truth (whether it went one way or the other). Favorite part was when you said "he's doin his thing" and I couldn't agree more. It's that type of attitude of others that shows their underlying mindset of humanity. I'm glad to have come across your channel and look forward to watching more of your vids.
Pretty cool video man...Nutnfancy really guided a lot of my purchases and I clicked this to see what you had to say. Really stand up guy overall though clearly. Like anyone, they're entitled to their opinion, but to be a stand up guy behind the scenes...that's pretty awesome. Nutnfancy is alright by me...so are you for doing this.
Nutn just seems so fuckin weird to me. I don't like him but I wouldn't say I hate him either. Just sort of off-putting. I've had very bad luck dealing with USAF officers so maybe I'm negatively biased. Suspicious confirmed. Sending a stranger $50 is weird. Nice sure, but definitely odd.
+Ty Davis well that's your opinion but why even talk about nutn on a video about him if you don't like him why you even watching this video about him if you don't like him you sir or ma'am seem to be the fucking odd one in the group
You're right, it is just my opinion. But you being offended by it and chiming in 7 months later just to insult a total stranger is completely normal. Lol, psycho.
not unlike too many youtube "informational" videos I see on this here website these days, people would rather wax poetic then getting to the f**ing point. I like your video(s), believe it or not, but damn bro just spit it out. Too many tangents, too many side points = frustrating
I am one of those guys you mentioned who watch the videos and never comment. I was scrolling through the pages in UA-cam and saw this video. To be honest I was waiting for you stop giving the reasons you like Nutnfancy and say BUT... It never came, all I heard was an honest guy telling us what he thinks of another honest guy. Sure, the higher you climb the better target you become and that may be one reason for all the dirt out on him (and you) but thank you for being a stand up guy. I appreciate that and will watch more of your videos.
Hey Jeff, just saw this video in the "watch it again" section and it said posted 2 years ago. so i was like "woah. i remember when that came out!" been subbed for the past 2.5 years and just wanted to say thanks for the great content and keep it up!
AirSofter241 he seems to have an almost theatrical way of narrating his reviews, like he changes his voice in the middle of the review intentionally. Regardless, I think he's an alright although slightly boring guy.
Very cool story. I’m sorry I keep commenting on your old videos. Lol. They keep popping up in my feed. Anyway, love your stuff and I have the same feelings you do on NF. I think means well and I actually like his videos despite disagreeing with him on a lot. He’s got a cool set up for running guns through their paces.
ive recently started watching his videos...seems like a down to earth guy and I like how he doesn't rush through his videos he takes the time to explain everything..far as im concerned hes a good guy
Whom gives a shit! You sound like you take things to personnel if you ask me, or you're running for office. I don't like lots of people, but I don't go out of my way to talk shit. We got enough women to talk gossip that travels faster then western union. If you don't like his videos and his subscribers, don't click the watch button. Jesus, I hate people that try and make their problems mine.
Try looking up why English grammar nazi are loathed on forms. I'll clue you in incase you're slow. Whom gives a shit what you think! You like them apples?
It's the grammar nazi again. How about you get a life or even better a job spell checking or proof reading expert writers that make more mistakes then Hilter!
I was watching one of Nutnfancy's videos and saw your video on the side. I initially thought you were going to trash Nutnfancy, and was relieved to hear that you had a wonderful experience with him. Not many people help out strangers. There should be more people like him.
Nutnfancy: The only person that can talk for 20 minutes about a fanny pack.
Anyone can do that, nutn fails to make informative and interesting videos.
@@user-pc8tb7hg1lHandlesRDumbHow many views do you have?
I wish I had his energy 😪
You sir, are a rare breed now a days. Sensible, humble, factual, intelligent and clearly a huge heart. Great video, even though I was completely uninterested in any drama. Thanks very much.
Nutn flew in yesterday to film and visit my wife & I for his, "Impressive Humans" Series. Completely surprised us! I try each day to help our Vets, and many others but I'm disabled & dying from a Tumor in my heart. He handed me his personal Cold Steel AK-47 knife & he gave my wife a new Spiderco Dragonfly and $30 for us to go eat. What a guy, with a huge heart of gold. To just fly down to SE Texas to visit w/ us. This has never happened to us. We ask for nothing in return for what we do.
when someone makes a youtube video about another youtuber it's usually a hate speech. and honestly i was expecting it in this case.. im pleasantly surprised. you're both really nice guys.
+subversive775 Honestly dude, I was expecting that, was legitimately thinking... "What could he not like?"
+GHOTI_ oh my god Sean
Same here, especially with a title like that. Pleasant surprise.
tadeadliest fk u dawson, me gon maek vidio abowt u
You must have a very low bar for "hate speech"
The UA-cam gun community and big channels are so important. Whether you like a person or not, we should all agree that these channels are promoting responsible gun ownership, which is critical in times like today. Thanks Jeff and everyone else in this community.
well said
Nutnfancy is great. You're a bald little boy.
I met Nutnfancy in January 2013 at a Gun Rights Rally at the Utah State Capitol. He is a genuine guy and I admire his philosophies and knowledge. He is personable with his fans and even with his busy schedule, he stays true to the mission of The Nutnfancy Project. I also had the opportunity to meet both of his sons at Blade HQ in Utah. Thanks for your kind words about our friend, Nutnfancy.
I don't usually comment on your videos, but I want to say that I appreciate all the time you put in to them, and I appreciate your story and your insight. Thanks
I don't think I have ever heard or even watched a video like this. It was actually very interesting to hear the perspective of someone who actually has multiple subscribers and seems like such a down to earth guy. I appreciate the maturity and clarity...even just in regards to youtube in general....Well done.
I've always loved nutn and this just blows me away, he's always come across to me as a really genuine and generous person who wants to give back but I never would have imagined something like this. Makes me all the happier I've been supporting his channel all these years
I just started watching Nutn's video's a few days ago. I've been a denizen of the interwebs and UA-cam for years and a firearm collector/shooter. I've watched a whole lot of reviews by a whole lot of people. I'm a big fan of Hickok45 and Iraqiveteran8888 and a few others. Well I finally started watching TNP videos. He seems to put a LOT of research and practical testing into his review subject. I like the way he talks about it, has talking points, etc. The way he relates stuff. It seems real. And laid out by somebody that knows pretty well what he's talking about. I don't think he comes off as a douche at all. But you get a large enough group of people together and you'll start to come up with haters. And like the saying goes. Haters gonna hate. It doesn't surprise me at all that you have had such a good experience with him. He seems like the real deal. I'd really like to take a few runs on one of his run and gun courses one day.
Also, Just subscribed to your channel :) Take care
Cutlerylover: Good video, full of good points and good attitudes/morals. A lot of people need to hear these truths.
Nutn is in no way full of himself. How many times you hear him say "I'm not an expert in _____, I'm just a gear tester..." What he is, is happy, energetic, comfortably with himself, and very confident about what he knows about from experience. People tend to be jealous of truly self-comfortable people. He has my respect, as do you. I appreciate the openness and honesty in this vid, so...subbing. (I'm 50 BTW)
I totally agree with you
sicesp he's kinda full of himself lol
"Nutn is in no way full of himself."
You haven't seen all of his videos then, mate. Check out the video on how obsessive and angry he is about his fan's "systems" and "testing for their readiness" it was absolutely ridiculous. The tone in his voice is abrasive as fuck, which Idon't hold against him. Referring to himself in the third-person constantly is annoying.
Hell, I live probably an hour from the dude and would love to go shooting with him, I just don't know how long that feeling wouldl ast once there!
There's a difference between being comfortable with yourself and full of yourself and you are in no better a position than I am to say what NutN really is. We just both have our opinions. Though it would, ironically, be full of yourself to be self-assured that I am most definitely wrong ;)
He calls the ppl that subscribe to him “TNPers” that’s totally a person that full of him self. I like nutn but he is full of himself.
Mature presentation. I shall have my kids watch this. Thanks!
He's a good, generous, humorous guy, and a good dad to his kids, which you can tell, from how they interact. There is footage of him in the cockpit, flying a KC-135 tanker, on deployment, etc. As far as "full of himself," he makes fun of himself, and accepts his son's jabs, since it's all in good fun.
As a fellow UA-camr (with a much much smaller channel), thanks for this video. When you started talking about how tough it was to run a successful channel, I was thinking, "Yes!! Someone else understands that it's not all roses."
blah,blah,blah. How the fuck did I get here again.
Those "hand people". First I made my videos, showing my knives, people kept saying bs like "why your hands are hairy?", "your hands are not manly enough", etc. Then I was like, ok, I'm going to buy gloves and wear them for my videos. Now I get comments like "why don't you show your hands", "why are you hiding your hands, are you a criminal?", "you are wearing gloves? you must be a psychopath" and such comments. Damn, I can wear my gloves or not wear them, either way, I get crappy comments time to time about my hands or the gloves. It's hopeless. haha
+thatmaninblack I would honestly delete comments that are that stupid. Troll comments don't matter. You can do whatever you want it's your channel after all.
***** Sometimes I do, but often some explanation or a sarcastic burn also works just fine. ;-)
True that but if it doesn't let up then you know what to do. :D
Well mate tell them to stfu u can do what you want
Dear mr gloved hands...
I just subscribed to you
The real question is... how do we feel about jello puddddddding?
Lol. Rape.
I have to say this. I am a 45 year old man living the married life in Wisconsin. Your view on Nut N Fancy is the best thing done in the best way I have encountered in any of these types of forums. kudos to you sir for your strong convictions. I have gained a lot of respect for you for doing this. I to enjoy Nut N Fancy's videos. I do not always agree with his or your points of view, but hold no animosity towards either of you. I do not have a you tube video channel, and probably never have one. I love both edged weaponry, and firearms. I have respect for the way the two of you do what you do. It takes a lot of guts to come on a public forum and speak the truth about what you feel about another human being, So once again, kudos sir and keep doing the things you do. I am sure you will be successful in your endeavors.
Jeff, thanks for posting this. It's important to say things like this. I like Nutnfancy too. He talks a lot. A LOT. But I like that too. He speaks his mind and says all the little things in the back of his mind, and I find it refreshing that someone is so open these days when so many are so worried about what others think of them. And it's nice to hear from people who have as many hobbies as I do!
I enjoy watching people Like you, nutn, and sootchOO, you all come across, as normal and genuine! I can not understand how people that are proven frauds, that use poor grammar and foul language while threatening to "Kill people" manage to con so many people into believing them to be omnipotent. Keep up the good work!
The people commenting on this video are pissing me off. I've been watching Jeff's videos for 6 years and he has come so damn far with his channel and I'm legit proud of him. The comments below are all from naive individuals who need to educate themselves on who Jeff is before they post these ridiculous comments.
Shut the fuck up youtube-hipster douchebag!
UA-cam hipster douchebag... Wow that's a first
*****
I'm not the first to call you that. Big surprise...
You actually are the first one to call me that. And yeah it is surprising. There's nothing wrong with defending a guy who I don't think deserves the comments I am reading below.
timmian85 Original label (UA-cam hipster douchebag) gonna remember that one.
50 bucks? Ill never forget this too bro.
Character- thats a powerful word.
I usually wont watch an entire video, but this 50 dollar story WOWD me. Just think-that was a one on one thing, (unless nutnfancy made a video about how he sent a stranger 50 bucks... ) But he did that to bless you. They say its more of a blessing to give than to receive. Like, if you naturally are selfish, sometimes you can feel empty. So try giving instead of always wanting, and that just might fill you up.
I am drawn to your character bro. I like your style, and in person you would be a cool dude to be around. Anyways, you shared some really real stuff man, so Im gonna subscribe bro. I am not really about you tube subscribing and uploads and reviews, I usually hit youtube for information on something, but I could def watch a knife review by you.
So I might as well ask ya- got any reviews on high end micro tech china clones bro? Something other than a vespa combat trodden review.. Like in the 50-70 dollar clone range.. Armament and knives- I like those too.
Good stuff.
Now here is something to think about. We usually like someone if they are likable or show love and respect to you. Thats easy and natural. But can you love someone still, unconditionally and genuinely, even if they treat you like crap and hate you? That is near impossible, who does that?
Friends, Id like to introduce to you the character of Jesus Christ. If you guys don't know Him, get to know Him. In all of our life, at the end of it all, THIS my friends, is the only thing that will matter.
Sorry CL about that, but had to plant some type of seed here. GB! (God Bless)
Your video was direct and respectful, and I appreciate that. I have used both his and your channels to learn, and appreciate the channels.
I started watching your videos when I moved back to the U.S. from Hong Kong and you videos have helped me not feel so upset about the move and now I watch you videos every day. You have no clue how much they have helped me.
TNP'r here but I stumbled across this video and Subscribed to your channel you seem like a decent dude and look forward to seeing some of your videos.
Wth is a tnp'r anyway iv always wondered that 😂
A Nutnfancy follower. TNP = The NutnFancy Proejct.
There are some people that are so rude on youtube, so I see what you mean. I will check out your channel, I don't know much about knifes, but I like knife reviews.
As far as Nutnfancy goes, something would be wrong if you agreed with everything he says! We all need to think for ourselves, but he seems right most of the time. I only know him from watching youtube, but I sure would not turn out a chance to hang out with him and do a run and gun. A person could learn a lot. Besides his knowledge of firearms, I respect his values, at least what I perceive as his values. I don't know him personally. God, Family, Country, respect for others, kindness, coming to the defense of victims, and guns. I like all that. Those are positive attributes that many people have that make me happy for them and our society.
Jacob Baker Well, you and I know that there is no reason to be rude. We all disagree sometimes.
i like nutn. i have watched many of his videos. people don't have to agree on everything. but i think he is a good guy
i think he loves what he does and does what he loves, gotta respect that.
In my 56 years usually I find the reason for negative comments or railing on someone or their work is 1) Jealousy &/or 2) their own insecurities. Just subd to your channel and look forward to your past and new vids.
Very well done Jeff. Though I think Nutnfacy videos are very long I appreciate all that he does in putting out good information on all different products which allows us to make a more educated decision.
I hope both of you keep up the good work. The story of him sending you the $50 towards a new gun shows me what type of characteristics he is made of and in my book he is "ok"! I would never forget someone when they have treated me nicely, it goes a long way!
Dude...if you don't like his vids....don't WATCH them...jeezus. .
He never said he doesn't like them. Actually he said he does... Did you watch the video?
You know what? I didn't. ...i guess I take home the douch award...
Jonathan Knight no the fact that you admidit your wrong makes you a kind person NOT a douch. The first comment DOUCHE second one REdemption ;)
Jonathan Knight Someone admitting they were wrong on UA-cam? THE WORLD IS COMING TO AN END RRRUUUNNNNNNN!!!
HOLY SHIIIIIIIIT
Nutnfancy is a "Class Act"...period
What was the point of the video? Not too familiar with nutnfancy but for him to send you 50 bucks when he was relatively unknown is extremely generous, and rare.
The guy doesn't have a bad bone in his body! His obsessions and opinions have led to great success as a UA-camr. He is a great family man, has a large number of close friends and associates, and he is passionate about sharing his knowledge and opinions on his reviews of gear. I am jealous of him because of his passion, his organization, his originality and he probably gets numerouss freebees and I'm sure he makes more than a little money with his enterprise. His views on safety and safe motorcycle riding are spot on greatly appreciated. My only criticism of him is I don't often have 40-50 minutes to watch his entire posts. For me, and my schedule, he's just a bit long winded and that's ok if you've got the time. Good luck to you and your continued success. That was a really nice post!
I'm a collier! -Ohio
Hi Eric! My Dad's side of the family is also midwest, from Iowa, Missouri, Illinois.
In a world where people are quick to condemn or criticize, your kind story about Nutnfancy is a refreshing change. Thank you.
I just watched a 45 minute video of his and stayed interested. Thats a pretty good accomplishment.
Nutn was the driving force behind my first gun purchase. He rocks and I hope he is on my side after the shit hits the fan.
What kind of trouble are you expecting?
Anybody that doesn't like Nutnfancy and Hickock 45 has some serious mental issues.
I dont think I would consider what Hicock45 does as a review. He never states that he is reviewing something either. He is just a guy who loves firearms and is sharing his love with the viewers. The man must have fired hundreds of thousands of rounds throughout his lifetime, and even to this day he still smiles and gets a kick out of whatever he is shooting. That in itself shows that he is just having fun. @kashman24 's comment is pretty immature however, and unnecessary.
+bobby wasabi I would consider what hickok45 does more of overview a firearm and just sharing his opinion. he usually doesn't keep the guns that he gets, as he puts them back up on auction. I love his channel for the simple reason that if I want to see a good overview of a firearm I'm interested in, I can trust that he is going to show how it works and is going to shoot it. then I will go deeper into the rabbit hole for more info.
+kashman WTF ?!?!? He's just a sheep obsessed by weapons ... That's what we commonly call a kid.
Don't you understand weapon are made for killing people so talking about , showing them etc ... Is awkward ?
babouille444 I don't think there is anything wrong with a guy that passes on very valuable information to most of the people who watch his stuff.
You can't talk about rifles and guns without thinking of why they are made ...
I've never tried a gun ( i will because i like shooting sports like bows , blow guns , knife throwing , darts , pool , whatever is about aiming and precision...) .
But we don't live in 1944 ... There is no war , so common people don't need things that can kill so easily to "defend themselves" from ghostly threats...
And stop . You have one of the worst statistics of murders by gun there is no need to debate.
Country without guns have way less murders . That's simple.
I dont want to go to the market with grandmas and stupid sheeps carrying guns ...
I don't want to have mefiance about people , I want to talk and have fun with them.
Sorry 4 my english i'm a little bit tired so I'm searching for words i perfectly know...
Ps : In my country if you love weapons ( like me... But not so much guns i like swords , i do a lot of nunchaku , not bad with sticks, throwing knives etc...) . People think you are an immature kid .
And they are right i'm agree with them because i know myself. I understand it's a fascination from childhood ...
Because kids think weapons make them mens ...
I can assume and have fun of myself , AND at the same time being proud because i'm good with nunchucks...
ps number 2 ;P : Guns have no glory , no honor... It's too easy .
Watched this video on an impulse because I've gone to nutnfancy a number of times for perspective on different topics. I was impressed with your general "genuine" and "live and let live" attitude. Both you guys take a lot of words to get an idea across at times, but through those words you both inspire more trust and credibility than most. Thank you for your example.
I was worried that this was going to be a bad story. But it warms me to hear about such kindness. Thanks jeff and god speed.
If you were blocked, think about what you did instead of play the blame game.
Nutnfancy is a smart guy...some people just can't handle that.
Fast FWD to 16:48 if you don't need all of the back story.
lol
Preciate you. 11 seconds and I'm caught up.
thank you fit saving me 16 minutes of my life!
Thank you
Thank you!
Very enjoyable video, it was cool to hear your opinion on nutn in a very nice and honest way. Really enjoyed myself, keep them videos coming mate!
Cutlerylover, BRAVO!! I just came across this video you've produce from a search result of nutnfacny, as I have recently been watching many (soon to be all) of his videos and I share a VERY similar mindset and opinion on firearms, knives, and gear as he does. As a result of this positive video you posted, I have subscribed to your channel and look forward to viewing all of your videos as well. Thanks for being a stand up guy unlike many of the arses on UA-cam (sorry James Yeager).
his 'philosophy' videos are what makes his channel worth watching. I like his reviews, but I'd much rather here about how he was raised, how he raises his kids, and how he lives his life. that dude has done a lot of awesome shit and has some great advice for people willing to listen.
Justification of killing the innocents , attacking a less developed countries based on selfish political interests is not a philosophy , it is Barbarism.
nutnfancy's primary philosophy is to avoid talking about jeff cooper, 1911's, the fact that HK dominated military contracts over Glock for 2 full decades, hi-cap 1911's.... and his #1 and #2 most reviewed brands are ruger and kel tec.... consequently in 2014 Ruger acquired Kel Tech. Nutn is also big on smith wesson and walther products (they have a strategic alliance).... so when nutn says he's unbaised or not bought, think twice about that stupid Glock Fanboy. You have to be a glock fanboy to review a Glock knife before something iconic like a spyderco police model.
Take for example nutnfancy's primary "close to engage" series where if you look up jeff cooper and his color-coding of threat levels, nutnfancy directly references that without attributing it to jeff cooper or giving credit where it was due. Likewise with nutnfancy whenever discussing "the scout rifle concept" he ducks and avoids jeff cooper as quickly as possible. Nutn claims he isn't bought but his first colt review was an old police rifle a full decade after his channel was launched... I find it funny that nutn calls himself a "revolver guy" when he doesn't have a 44mag review or a .500 review or any python/anaconda reviews at all. It's like none of nutnfancy's friends shoot at all. It's pretty hard to shoot that regularly and not know someone with any of those guns.
I find it funny when nutnfancy claims he _prefers_ SIG over Glock when all of his criteria are listed ergonomics in about 3 or 4 different categories and "value" is noted as in (X acquired at Z price = Value as in ignore overall Quality altogether because he always factors in price intentionally to bais to Glock) as well as the accessory market always being factored in simply because Glock refused to address the myriad of problems they've had including on the 5th Gen pistols still offerring plastic sights at which point nutnfancy balks at it just as he did in his early SIG video discussing the recoil spring that might break after 5,000 rounds... the same anecdote is given "most people will shoot only a box or 2 worth of ammo out of them so it doesn't matter" ..... yeah. Suck that up mr. average nutn sub. lol and we see every Glock model under the sun reviewed by nutn but do we ever see him review a P229? NOPE! Can you spell liar?
I really feel sorry for ANYONE who takes nutnfancy seriously as he's the most toxic form of Glock Fanboy. Even on Glocktalk dot com you can google search for HK MK23 vs G21 and find out that when nutnfancy claimed in his G21/20 video that had the 10mm and 45acp guns reviewed nutn said he thought the Glock should've beaten out the HK MK23.... the pistol that basically invented and passed all of those tests before Glock Fanboys could try to reproduce them and at the same time actually offering match grade accuracy - something nutnfancy just loves to leave out of the discussion.... which is why his bullet points include "ergonomics" tactically spread out and talked about ad nausium. LOL even on Glocktalk dot com we find that the users there say "there is no comparison" HK is the ultimate pistol, period.
As for nutnfancy giving guns a bad rap over weight it's anecdoted by Jeff Cooper that if you stop carrying a gun because of an extra pound of weight then you clearly don't understand the importance of exercising that right. So when nutnfancy docs points for that or "not enough firepower" as if you'll be standing in once place for 4+ full seconds to dump an 8 round mag.... lol your philosophy on such becomes bankrupt when your arguments revolve around ergonomics - I will note nutnfancy never reviewed or made light of a hi-cap 1911 either. Nutnfancy has to be the most (successful + dishonest) firearms channel ever. I'm not joking.
But hey, don't take my word for it. Go find nutnfancy mr.knife channel first lol... go find his balison review. It won't even be one that you can swing open like a real balisong lol.
As people have previously said about nutnfancy, "nice try but you still suck".
....and yes what you just might have read is only the tip of the iceberg.
*Zombie4416* who are you talking to?
Its funny when he is talking about glocks and how even if you don't know about guns you know what one is. I worked with a guy for about a year that was a former gang banger of some kind from florida with a rap sheet as long as his arm. He called ALL handguns glocks. It took me a while to realize this, I thought he just really liked glocks lol. Then one day he showed up at my place so we could ride to work together and I showed him my handgun. He said it was a "sexy glock" and that's when it clicked. It amazed me that he didn't know it was a brand name.
Our oldest, who is current active duty, about to be a veteran swore to me that my Springfield Armory XD, is a Glock. I told him over and over, it wasn't. I even went and got it (safe first, obviously) to prove it to him and while looking at it, he swore... it was a Glock. I showed him the logo on top of the slide, he swore it was a Glock.
This is why... I hate Glocks. Well, that and I don't like shooting them... don't like the grip profile and the way they sit in my hand.
I agree completely BigDog. Ive never fired one that I thought was comfortable to shoot. Ive had guys tell me "oh if you take it out a few times and get used to it youll fall in love with it." Well, maybe but why should I force myself to get used to something I don't like just to please the Glock gods?
I carry a Ruger as well. Actually 2 lol. I have a Ruger P94 and when I am wearing lighter clothes or its really hot out I carry a LC9
Love the springfields, have to agree the Glock feels uncomfortable. I'd rather have a gun I feel naturally comfortable with than have to get used to something I don't like.
I don't see nothing wrong with either of your videos...
Keep up the good work to both of you...👍🏼
Hey bro, I highly respect the fact that you took the time to make this video, and because of it I have subscribed to your channel. I'm sure I would have found you eventually because we share the same interests, but I found this video from watching one of his. I think everyone should respect the amount of time that you guys put into this project, I'm a 43 year old full time student working on my Bachelors in Theology and Psychology, yes I know odd combo, but anyway I know that I would not have the time to do what both of you do, and the fact that you do it with little incentive and with the viewers in mind, again is highly respectable, and appreciated by me I and I hope many others. So obviously you don't have just kids watching your videos and even though I'm sure you do have a lot, I think it is great that they would be interested in and watching your videos vs. playing video games or watching music videos. I am shocked that almost 800 people have given this video a thumbs down, that is so immature and childish, you didn't have to make this video but you did, and it was an honorable thing to do. So thank you, I look forward to watching more of your videos. Take care.
Off-topic, but theology and psychology can go hand-in-hand with each other. They're different subjects, but both can be observed in tandem in one's personality and mentality.
MusicOfAdam I agree obviously, I just always get the opposite reaction though.
Bravo jeff, great video, maybe the first one I've seen from your channel and look forward on watching in the future.
I messaged nutnfancy once he never answered
U both seem like good guys but damn you're both long winded, say what you have to say and turn the camera OFF...
The reason I have issues getting through nutn's videos is because they're SO.DAMN.LONG. But I like them though, he considers everything possible when he says something.
I have to say I just watched one of nutn's videos on fire starting and after watching him clumsily use a hatchet(probly would have cut himself if not for the mechanics gloves), could not use a fire piston with instructions and generally not looking very comfortable doing the tasks he was doing, I was thinking wow this guy is a real doofus but after hearing your story I can't help but like the guy a little more. I guess we didn't all grow up in a house that burned firewood for heat. All the tasks involved with that are like second nature, splitting, chainsaw's, kindling, starting fires and everything else I can't think of right now.
Dang man, I remember watching this vid a few years back then subscribing. TBT. You've come so far. Keep up the good work
I was watching a Nutnfancy knife video, I'm a longtime subscriber of his and love all his video's of knives, guns and gear. I seen this video on the sidebar and seeing " Cutlerylover " I thought hey another knife lover I have to watch. This was an awesome video and I really liked what you said and I can see your an honest and straightforward person so I subscribed and liked the video. I'm looking forward to watching your video's thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge about knives.
Subbed to both Nut and Cut. Couple of nice guys.
That kind like a history channel show. ha ha
Nutnfancy does good product reviews... Its not a competition...
Nutnfancy is a great guy. I wish more channels had the guts to stand for the U.S. Constitution like him. My only gripe? He can be a bit long-winded. Thank goodness that UA-cam has this fancy new feature - you can jump to anywhere in the video by clicking on the play-head.
A bit long winded... understatement of the year. lol
ambee514 Fuck you, play solitare while listening. You can fucking multi-task, cant you?!
Where did I say that I don't like nutin's obscenely long reviews? I am sub'ed to his channel and "view" almost every video he puts out, including his hour long table top reviews. Chill the fuck out dude.

Then whats the gripe? if you like it its a non-issue. Its what he does, and if you like him you like "it". Dont fucking backtrack... Just say it gets on your nerves, i was just giving you some advice. Dont be ungrateful just because i fucking say fuck alot, thats fucking retarded..
I appreciate your sincere expression. We need more people who are balanced, mature, understand everyone has a shadow and gold because we are human. How many people are giving of themselves to ADD to peoples lives. How many people have the courage to put themselves out there. BRAVO!!!!
props to you! ive been subscribed to you for a little while, but def gonna start watching you a lot more. (btw im one those subs that dont participate much in comments, but i love your knife vids!)
By the way, Jeff, you seem like a really down to earth type person. :)
I don't understand the nutnfancy hate. UA-cam unfortunately brings out the dumb in people. Especially in the comments.
My only real beef with Nutinfancy is that he's soooo long winded. I don't have the patience for 1 hour long You Tube videos. No doubt he knows a lot of stuff about all kinds of guns, and as a new shooter, learned a lot of things from him over the years. I followed nearly every recommendation he made for improving the Glock 17. I subscribed to his channel but rarely watch his stuff anymore.
pellcio all he ever needed to do was index his videos. If his description looked like:
Weight 1:05
POU 10:30
Value 24:40
nobody would have a problem with him talking for so long.
Anthony Kim Agreed. Good idea.
Anyone that sends someone they don't even know $ 50 to get them started with something they're interested in without expecting anyhting in return is golden in my book! Thanks for bringing that to light CL!
Great video! I really rate Nutn's videos, along with Hickock and Eric and Chad at IV888. I'm from the UK and just wish I could make it over to the States sometime and have a shoot with some of those guys. You've just gained another sub from me too buddy! Take care, from the UK!
I never got all the hate for Nutn. If you don't like someone's videos, don't watch...
The politics of envy are always ugly.
171,234 subscribers, thats a long way from 70. good job
Dude, I have never seen your videos until this day, it's really cool to hear such story, this video lets us know you are a really cool dude, I will watch all your videos and like them all!!
Well, I'm a new subscriber, and i'm the ripe old age of thirty-nine... watched a lot of your videos, just recently subscribed... great stuff.. keep'em coming...
Cutlerylover, you have class and honor. Well said.
nutnfancy is the real deal.
Why do people have to be so negative? I like TNP and people who just say and do stuff is annoying! I like his videos because he gives good info, he shows the pros and cons. and he gives good info. but then you have people like TheYankeeMarshal. That guy just talks a lot and does not show anytihnig to back up what he is saying. I pointed this out to the guy and he verbally attacked me and was mad because my Kel-tecs work. I did not attack him back because I am not that kind of person. But if you are going to make an accusation you should back up what you are saying. Not call people names and call something trash without proof.
Everyone has an @hole, some people chose to be one. The pen is mightier than the sword but even an illiterate can wield the tongue.
We are talking about the same guy right? "guns, gear, politics and STUPIDITY". complete with old dude wearing pink panties that he purchased for himself at walmart?
Hi, I just came across your channel because of Nutnfancy. So now I subscribe to both of you guys. You do a great job and I really like your videos. And just for the record I am not 12 years old, in fact I just turned 61. I am still learning thanks to guys like you and Nutn.
Peace, Rob
I really liked this video. It's nice seeing someone showing some respect for their fellow youtubers for once. You just got another subscriber,
I liked Nutnfancy for his knife and gun vids, and didn't mind a certain amount of political commentary, even when I didn't agree with it. What broke me was when he went full-bore political, especially after Newtown. When I say 'full-bore political', I don't mean he started putting his politics in everything he did; just that, after the first couple of political vids, I got where he was coming from and didn't need to watch more of it. I'm not jealous of him; I have no interest in putting him down; I don't hate him; I appreciate the work he puts into his videos, and the passion with which he speaks about things important to him. I simply unsubscribed when I thought he went too far into right-wing political commentary. He certainly can do what he wants with his channel; I certainly don't have to watch.
Thanks for a good vid, Jeff. Keep up the good work.
As someone who is completely tired of the leftwing media outlets and watching lefties force feed the sheep on MSNBC, NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, Headline News, Grammys, Nobel Peace Prize, LA Times, NY Times; nutnfancy is a breath of fresh air in comparison to staleness entrenched in everything else.
AbuGrabIt you have a problem with the Nobel Peace Prize?
SmileWidePro You mean the one Obooboo got undeservedly?
AbuGrabIt I like how you conveniently ignore the other half of domestic media, including the most watched cable news channel in the nation by the most powerful media mogul in the world. But hey, don't let me interfere with your delusion of self-victimization.
TheDoug76
Question, when you call the President of the United States "Obooboo" do you genuinely not realize how that makes you look?
Well, I knew this day would come. Computers have done exactly what I thought they would do, they have separated PEOPLE from reality. This guy talks and talks and talks, and what is the point?? On and on he rambles, and so does the other guy (Nut'n), what is the problem they have?? These young people spend too much time sitting in a room fiddling with a machine and have forgotten or never learned how to interact. Bunch of strangers "talking to" another bunch of strangers about nothing. It is one monologue against another monologue. This guy talks all day and does not say anything.
I unsubbed from Nutnfancy about 3 years ago. He may be a nice guy, IDK. I do know his political views go strongly against mine. Anyone who still believes we can "vote em' out" is part of the problem. Even Nutnfancy.
Charles T good job replying to a comment 2 months old, i doubt he cares
Voting them out? That's part of democracy! What's wrong with democracy? Sure it may not be super easy but its possible....
nateo200 Because in the US there is no democracy. Its fake. Its set up to look like we have choices when in reality we don't. Thats why I said if you believe you can vote them out you are part of the problem because you believe the lie.
dragonballjiujitsu not part of the lie, but alot of people are ignorant to the fact that party agenda trumps democratic choice of the people, instead of politicians shaping thier beliefs to serve us, we shape our beliefs based on them. Democracy works well, but only when the politicians are representatives and not politicians for the sake of power. Also lol at this new chain of comments, happy new year yall
Ooh, look at you being all hostile and such. Calm down buddy, i was replying to the guy before me. When did i suggest standing by was an answer? I believe the exact opposite. But voting and participating in our great nations election process... well it doesnt garuntee the fishy sonofabitch we vote in won't misrepresent us, or screw things up. We, unfortunately, live in a time where superpacts and campaign money trump all. Bleh
Very much appreciate your honest face to face message in this vid. You UA-camrs go through a lot and you communicated that very well.
Commenting as a 38 yr olde Aussie...just so I can ad to your non-tweener demographic on record. Cheers Bruz.
I try to stick up for him all the time. I have no idea why people don't like him, to be honest. I love the guy and his thinking and videos. Minus the hi-point one.
You got a new sub from me. :)
Great vid. I'm new to uploading vids to UA-cam so this was very helpful.
nutnfancy knows what he's talking about, but he hasn't figured out how to condense that into a practical 5-15 minute review like 99.9 percent of the other reviewers on YT. This is why I no longer subscribe to his channel.
Nothing against the guy's knowledge, he's just long winded and boring.
attananightshadow For me it was all his "charity" videos, and his constant "look what I do to help people, im a really good guy. Please donate now"
attananightshadow He goes on too long with his long winded musings, which can be charming in a way. I suppose that you have to like his style to watch it consistently.

alot of people appreciate an in depth review. nutn is probably the best at this. and I think he's pretty funny too. you can always skip forward and backwards. you can't do that on a video that just doesn't have that information unfortunately
He's said in his videos "if you want a 10 min review there are plenty of them on UA-cam" that is why I subscribe to his channel not a lot of people go in depth @nutnfancy
Good lord! It takes you as long to get to the point as nutnfancy.
OH MAN; I was coming to this video thinking to myself I couldn't believe I was giving it a view. Thank you for the story and speaking truth (whether it went one way or the other). Favorite part was when you said "he's doin his thing" and I couldn't agree more. It's that type of attitude of others that shows their underlying mindset of humanity. I'm glad to have come across your channel and look forward to watching more of your vids.
Pretty cool video man...Nutnfancy really guided a lot of my purchases and I clicked this to see what you had to say. Really stand up guy overall though clearly. Like anyone, they're entitled to their opinion, but to be a stand up guy behind the scenes...that's pretty awesome. Nutnfancy is alright by me...so are you for doing this.
48 here... Love both channels ...
Nutn just seems so fuckin weird to me. I don't like him but I wouldn't say I hate him either. Just sort of off-putting. I've had very bad luck dealing with USAF officers so maybe I'm negatively biased.
Suspicious confirmed. Sending a stranger $50 is weird. Nice sure, but definitely odd.
Ty Davis He speaks like a cartoon version of myself, and that weirds me out the most.
+Ty Davis well that's your opinion but why even talk about nutn on a video about him if you don't like him why you even watching this video about him if you don't like him you sir or ma'am seem to be the fucking odd one in the group
You're right, it is just my opinion. But you being offended by it and chiming in 7 months later just to insult a total stranger is completely normal. Lol, psycho.
+Ty Davis yet you do the same
+Ty Davis i like nutn,but this guy seems weird to me
not unlike too many youtube "informational" videos I see on this here website these days, people would rather wax poetic then getting to the f**ing point. I like your video(s), believe it or not, but damn bro just spit it out. Too many tangents, too many side points = frustrating
I am one of those guys you mentioned who watch the videos and never comment. I was scrolling through the pages in UA-cam and saw this video. To be honest I was waiting for you stop giving the reasons you like Nutnfancy and say BUT... It never came, all I heard was an honest guy telling us what he thinks of another honest guy. Sure, the higher you climb the better target you become and that may be one reason for all the dirt out on him (and you) but thank you for being a stand up guy. I appreciate that and will watch more of your videos.
Hey Jeff, just saw this video in the "watch it again" section and it said posted 2 years ago. so i was like "woah. i remember when that came out!" been subbed for the past 2.5 years and just wanted to say thanks for the great content and keep it up!
does anybody really care about the drama? i doubt it...
Nutnfancy seems slightly crazy.
Its funny how weirdly accurate that is... I mean I like him, but something about him just seems a little off.
yeah him AND his son both just have this weird Vibe
AirSofter241 he seems to have an almost theatrical way of narrating his reviews, like he changes his voice in the middle of the review intentionally. Regardless, I think he's an alright although slightly boring guy.
He's VEEEERY conservative keep in mind
davedisaster12
And that makes you crazy? Oh wait course it does
I just think they're long and boring.
Very cool story. I’m sorry I keep commenting on your old videos. Lol. They keep popping up in my feed. Anyway, love your stuff and I have the same feelings you do on NF. I think means well and I actually like his videos despite disagreeing with him on a lot. He’s got a cool set up for running guns through their paces.
ive recently started watching his videos...seems like a down to earth guy and I like how he doesn't rush through his videos he takes the time to explain everything..far as im concerned hes a good guy
Pretty FN cool
I see what you did there o.O
+Gundemon1 What did I do?
Oh I guess you didn't notice. The FN part being the firearms company FN.
Exactly! Haha
You bored me to death. Who cares? I only made it half way thru this drivel
Is someone holding you against your will and forcing you to watch this video? No?
Then go away if you don't like Jeff's videos. #baibai
Especially if you're going to go to the extreme level of lame by calling me a 'turd'... bahahaha I hafta tell you that is a first
*clapping* please continue you are doing a stellar job
Probably just like yours, just lick your right hand and you will know exactly what it tastes like
Vague Memory do you feel better now?
Whom gives a shit! You sound like you take things to personnel if you ask me, or you're running for office.
I don't like lots of people, but I don't go out of my way to talk shit. We got enough women to talk gossip that travels faster then western union. If you don't like his videos and his subscribers, don't click the watch button.
Jesus, I hate people that try and make their problems mine.
People asked him to make the video, and he didn't talk shit at all. He said he liked him. What's you're problem?
Try looking up why English grammar nazi are loathed on forms.
I'll clue you in incase you're slow. Whom gives a shit what you think! You like them apples?
It's the grammar nazi again.
How about you get a life or even better a job spell checking or proof reading expert writers that make more mistakes then Hilter!
Claude Rains who*, too*, personal*, than*, who*, nazies*, WHO*, who* (AGAIN), THAN*
Honest question, did you finish middle school? D:
Claude Rains people are grammar nazis because they cant do math..lol..its just english dont get excited...
You have earned a subscriber good sir. To go out of your way to make a sincere video like this is admirable!
Excellent video! Spreading of goodwill toward others, wish there was more of this out there.
