I have decided that all I want for Christmas is a compilation of every time nick has said :hey guys nick here" in chronological order
That Guy That would be awesome 😂
Mine also came very sharp so they are absolutely listening and making improvements. I’m very impressed with this company and this knife
Mr. Herman is a gifted craftsman. Metal-art to the extreme.
Hat's off to you sir, where ever you are. That thing's a wall-hanger (nice).
The pivot looks like an Imperial Crest.
I really like the aesthetics of this knife as well. I love the polished screw heads (like on some Begg knives). I'm even ok with his pivot screw as I would just toss his tool into my toolkit. He gets bonus points for captive pivot and I always wonder why I will keep buying knives without that feature!
Very nice knife !! Great review , thanks for sharing !
Ive been wanting this brand for a couple if years but hard to obtain. But I can gladly take that Dragonfly off your hands. Great video my friend
I want a T-shirt, “It’s definitely a thing.”
"I appreciate that very much"
"#NotaBrilliantMan" "A Beautiful thing" "Holy locktite Batman" so many opportunities for shirts and merch 💯% would buy
Hi, Nick pick up the sting a few months back. Love the knife!!!
That one’s a bit to BIG
HAVE A GOOD ONE.
Nice quality piece but my sweet spot for edc blades is around a 3.25" blade and around 2.5 OZ or less like my ZT 0450CFZDP or Bugout (I have Rogue Bladeworks CF scales)
I really like my HatiOn ( got a good price)
The Skaha in cf is also one of my favs.
Nice review as usual.
I really like this and I really like your videos thanks for sharing.
Great knife but the price... Oh my God! $700+ ???
In US$590😉
That's a sweet carry. If you're keeping it, mod the flipper tab. And get a custom pivot screw in your favorite flavor. Life's short - customize. 👍
Life's short - customize your wife! 🤣
The way this thing is built I can only assume that the pivot is designed for a specific torque. Reason for odd socket and wrench.
The country of Polish.... LOL The stand up is top notch!
Too many ..." Things" for 650 ,but I do like the looks and size. Fix the things and the price would be tolerable. Love that floating backspacer , and the blade jumping. Yeah , I want that.
Mine came incredibly sharp, and before your review I felt the same way about the flipper 😕
I would love a Sting to compare it to...one day I suppose
Nice looking, out of my price range!!!
I just got mine and yesterday I love it. Also I guess they listen to you because they fix the pivot they still send it all but now you can use a torques bit also
Very nice review. It's appreciated. Btw, you don't miss a thing, do you? Love the intricate detail. Seems to be a really classy knife. Unfortunately we've got that 3.5 inch limit here. Maybe I'll get that other knife you call it's little brother. Thanks Nick!
The Sting? Good luck with that.

What do you mean by that? Is it hard to get, or are you saying it’s not a good purchase.
@@RowdyRory It's not currently available as far as I can tell.
david marshall Thanks for responding. It's appreciated.
What was your impression of the ZDI-1016 Damascus on the other blade that you mentioned?
Hey Nick, thinking about ordering an Ishtar from Polish Custom Knives. How long does the shipping usually take?
OCD alert! When you installed the pivot the dragonfly emblem is sitting crooked.
just got a gen 2 dragonfly,same configuration to march my slim and sting ,rose gold anodised clip and backspacer and polished titanium,the dragonfly is my favourite of the 3 , mainly the action as the dragonfly blade is heavy so drops shut but in a controlled drop not like my Morpheus which is a 2022 knife or my Norseman,love this maker ,rask will be my next but noway am I paying the prices on the secondary when I can wait until my name is drawn and get a brand new one for retail
In no way to be confused with the Spyderco dragonfly.
Nice knife...I want a Sting sooooooooo bad! The Shirogorov sneeze was WONDERFUL, (and appropriate)!
It seems odd that a knife maker would name their knife the Dragonfly considering the existence of the Spyderco knife of the same name. I'm sure Spyderco isn't bothered but it is just really bizarre to me.
Herman began making a Dragonfly knife in 2016. I don't know when Spydrco started.
@@polishcustomknives9753 The original Spyderco Dragonfly released in 1994. Herman's knife is very nice by the way.
@@Evan_Schaefering Thank you for the information 🙏. Finally it's only the name of popular bug 😅
They must’ve also fixed the blade finish because mine is very smooth practically a satin
Not going in my collection anytime soon..sorry good review though !
You only have a link that takes me back to their home page that kind of sucks
Pretty sure Herman doesn't make this line anymore. Or if they do it's really hard to find.
This knife looks like a fractal of good
Nick a suggestion to add the edge length along with the overall blade length
I guess I'm first. Nice review Nick. 😎👍
Ive seen the scale pattern on a Two Suns knife that has been around awhile ,Blade shape also close to that other knife,,
It looks quite similar to Grimsmo Rask
Don't screw into the scales...
Nice piece btw...
Boutique knife is the word you were looking for Nick. Pocket jewelry for fancy pants. Knives that will never cut anything more than the tape holding a box closed.
The pattern on the handle looks so much like the Houge Ritter knife. Herman? Is he one of the Munsters????? 😵😂🤣😅
Left at 8:50...
Raised the BARtosz! lol
For 600 i dont want just a regular torx pivot screw... that would feel cheap
$700+= Not
In US $590
Hmm the Dragonfly is bigger than the Dragonfly 🤔
Think he ment sting
Nick, get over the flipper tab. You got the knife as a gift. Appreciate it as a GIFT.
Milled clips are 💩 the minute they catch on your jacket from stooping down and standing up etc.. they bend to 💩
not polished screw heads....pressed ball bearings
No watch the disassembly

When Nick finally discovers Twosun it will forever change his view of overpriced knives like this.
LMAO, hilarious
