It is awesome that there are more, and more American manufacturing companies popping up everywhere. I would like to see a knife for the average working man - a knife that is very durable, attractive in its design, while not being overly priced - something that I would use daily without caring about the price tag. I understand that it costs more to manufacture products in America, but overly priced knives keep Chinese knife companies in business. If I buy a knife for $225, that knife better be reliable and last a lifetime!
I'm from the UK - I don't know much about the 173rd, but what I did remember right away is that's who Nick Brockhausen served with before he went Green Beret/MACV SOG. That's quite a recommendation! MNC seem like a very cool set up. I'll have to find out more 👍
Been following Josh since before MKC. Never managed to get a drop and now i can't do it. Yet. The day will come and i am definitely looking forward to it.
MKC is becoming my favorite for sure . I have Speedgoat and Fieldcraft Magnacut ( which I won ) . The Speedgoat is freaking insane how lightweight and sharp that suckers is . Definitely looking forward to MKC Folder and 4.5" Tac Knife. For 10+ years Esee and Benchmade were my go too . Now its MKC . Cannot wait to see what they have in the future
Just got the book Prepared! Been really getting into it even sneaking some reading time at work. Looking forward to the podcast with Jocko to gain better insight.
Oof. I’m gonna have to add one of these blades to my list of “things to buy once I get my shit together and get out of debt” list. Gorgeous knives, awesome merchandise. I could max my card out in a heartbeat at this place.
@@mysterioanonymous3206 Stupid decisions, impulsive purchases, and a little bit of it was just bills that needed paying. It’s not a huge amount of debt, but it’s enough that it stresses me out. My own fault. I also have been way to complacent with my current pay rate. I need to do better. I’ll take accountability for my fuck ups though. Blaming the world or other people for my problems hasn’t gotten me anywhere. Being honest with myself and owning my decisions does seem to help, and I’m noticing a difference ever since I’ve started doing that.
@@JG54206 I see. Thank you for your honesty and openness. You seem like a good person. I know it's unwarranted, but... Try to not get caught up in the fake instagram/youtube world of make-believe and shallowness. Just focus on yourself and take it step by step. You already know what you have to do. Just take a deep breath, and another one, and then just do you. And don't forget to be kind to yourself. You'll be fine. You'll get there.
@@mysterioanonymous3206 Thanks man. The support helps a lot. Much appreciated. Trying to improve myself and my situation. PS- it’s not unwarranted at all. I need to hear it.
@@JG54206 a lot can happen in a few years time. Things can and will be substantially different in 10 years. I would know, trust me on this one. If anything, just pace yourself, steady progress, but make sure to not burn out... Seriously man. Self care is a learned skill (healthy, productive, balanced habits). Everyone has their own journey, it's not just you. You'll get there.
Awesome video Mike, thanks for showing us around Montana knife company’s factory, very cool knives. I’m definitely going to look into them. What brand of folding pocket knife do you usually carry mike?
Hey wait a minute...I remember him from Forged in Fire...Josh vs Liam Hoffman (Hoffman Blacksmithing)...the best Axes available anywhere (he also makes knives, but ya gotta take out a loan to buy one)...Two great American success stories
The American dream right there. Beautiful facility and I bet it's a awesome place to work. Im a proud Montanan. The last best place in the United States
like a Cuban independence general (Antonio Maceo, the bronce titan) once said; “ a bullet may fail, but the blade never fails” 🗡️ I always carry my blade, thats my main backup. 🇺🇸
love when shops are as nice as houses, would love to work there n have a decent human being for a boss! for some reason i thought they were all hand forged lol. ill save up for the blk n grn one
A portable mic can help the mobile setup. Cameras on these phones are great, amazing even, but the mics are a little on the junk side for interviews. I forgot the brand I got back 2 years ago but most are the same. No jokes today.
Small business owner here, this type of videos warms my heart.
I recently started working for a small business, a million times better than a giant company
This is great to see American made products and the work that is being done. The possibilities are inspiring.
What a nice facility. Pretty impressive!
Love it! American Company, American Made!!! God Bless Y'all...
Many years of hard work paying off as MKC scales up. Such a cool work environment
The building looks awesome. Way to go MKC 🇺🇸
Very happy to see a small businessman be successful.
Loving the C8 Mike. Wish we could get more car content from ya. I was really enjoying your rally journey. Hope you don’t give up on it in the end.
Agreed
Who doesn't love knives?

I have a serious knife crush on their Super Cub!
Great content, Mike. Mini speedgoat is my every day carry and I love it, best knife I’ve ever owned!

The Bear Tooth is a Green River Skinner knife clone! I love it. I can’t believe they figured out a Kydex sheath for it! 15:51

Elk meat in the freezer they can take home any time??? What a place to work!

Greetings from Helena - great to see a Montana company featured and doing well! ⛰️🌲👍 Thanks for the excellent video Mike.
David Williams 👋

Hell yeah, bro. Grew up in Frenchtown. Hope you're lovin it up here.

@@peterlowell7963 Thanks - I clearly had a "brain in neutral" moment 🤣
What a streamlined operation!
It’s good to see someone other than, benchmade, gerber, CRKT, Kershaw or leatherman all of which are based in Oregon getting some love.
Looks like a neat and professional job! I like it 👍 Greetings from Finland.
Just ordered my first MKC knife. Looking forward to it. I'll definitely grab a folder when they drop.
Very excited about this company. Enjoyed the video!
One of your best shows!! I want one...
I need you to tell Josh to get an EDC folder out so I can give him more of my money!
Parker 👋
Awesome looking US company. Just ordered a knife. Looking forward to it
Been following Josh since before MKC. Never managed to get a drop and now i can't do it. Yet. The day will come and i am definitely looking forward to it.

Haven’t heard of Montana knife company before going to check them out. Thanks for the tip.

What a flipping SICK company badass
At 10:49 there is a certificate on the wall hanging, any way to get a picture of that? I believe it may be from an old unit I was in.
MKC just got a new customer because of this video 😎🇺🇸
Welcome to the 406 glad to have you!
Your book gets delivered today or tomorrow. I’m looking forward to reading it.
Man....id love to work there!!!
Dude I'm so jealous you got to meet the guys from Montana knife company I'd love to get on of there knives someday ❤
Nice! Montana is amazing 🙂
The American dream right there. Beautiful facility and I bet it's a awesome place to work. Im a proud Montanan. The last best place in the United States
Hmm 🤔
"We didn't want people to sue us when they cut themselves, so we made it a club" Beautifully said Josh!😂
All That Sick Sharp Goodness
I thought I had all I needed but just bought the Canadian belt knife design.. never thought they would make it but threw my money at them :)
You had me at true American made🌟
New place looks great, only issue ive ever had with mkc is that they are impossible to buy, and no international shipping
You should really check out Stephenson knives out of Florida. Veteran owned, hand forged knives of the best quality. My friends and I own several.
My brother has ZO6....im not a Corvette guy, but his ride is badazz.
like a Cuban independence general (Antonio Maceo, the bronce titan) once said; “ a bullet may fail, but the blade never fails” 🗡️ I always carry my blade, thats my main backup. 🇺🇸
Where are the forges and anvils? Where do they grind bevels?
Toyota's, and Corvette's. My favorite vehicles.
Awesome!
love when shops are as nice as houses, would love to work there n have a decent human being for a boss! for some reason i thought they were all hand forged lol. ill save up for the blk n grn one
The blaze orange Blackfoot 2.0 is such a great hunting knife
Wilson 👋
Hell ya making Montana proud.
Are you from there ??
@HannahRoot55 yes I am born and raised.
Where do your get flannels?
That’s only 4ish hours away from me I need to go visit them I think it would be awesome
Yep. I don’t buy anything not made in America unless I have no alternative. Thanks for the video.
I’m willing to pay extra for quality American products. Was quick on the 12/12/24 drop and waiting on a wargoat, can’t wait!
Can you do a video on the tongo tongo ambush Mike?
Great video I’m buying the speed Goat 👍
Very cool. Only carry serrated folders. Current Benchmade. Will be tough to beat. Was not impressed with spyderco & kershaw.
Great 👍 looks very cool 😎
No compromise is great.. who is his steel supplier?
Very cool!
Those books sales already paying off i see, just kidding. Just got my copy, all the hard work put into it, you deserve afew new knives

Yeah, I saw both left hands so I know that you were driving with two hands.😂
Wow...I am going to finish my custom knife soon...I have been working on it for about 10 years...i am slow.
Didnt know you live up here in the great North!
