Nicely done Taylor! Such a great overview video, I'm afraid you may know our products better than we do lol, great work man! 🙏🙏
Customer service is best I’ve dealt with. I accidentally washed my slim bolt action pen with my jeans and while cleaning it I lost a piece. I reached out to them and within 2-3 days I had the missing piece in the mail with another sticker. 10/10 experience with this company and will always recommend them to anyone in the market for their type of products
I want to point out that their customer service is really great, too!
I had a solar driven field watch fail on me, BiD paid for the shipping and before even receiving my watch they sent out a brand new one. so happy bout that!
I just sent my Ti solar watch from the Kickstarter back yesterday. It just stopped working a week ago. Hopefully nothing serious.
@@DavidHooverJr that's actually a bit worrying... great warranty service is good and all, I just hope there's no big issue with the field watch that has it breaking every few months
@@Kleiner_Lutz yeah, I thought the same thing when I saw your reply. I really love my watch and all the other stuff I have from BiD, so hopefully I get it back soon. As Taylor said in the video, they use RZE to build the watches and they are supposed to be a high end tough watch.
@@DavidHooverJr well I guess i'll find out if my new watch stops in half a year too
@@Kleiner_Lutz My Ti solar replacement had the wrong date and day yesterday so I corrected it. Then the day of the week was wrong again today, but it won't let me past Thursday. I haven't contacted BiD yet, but this has me very concerned.
Holy shit bro. I took a full year or more away from watching your channel. I come back and you're half the size you were. What a fantastic job! Hope you're feeling a lot better health wise. You look great. Also BID have great products. Expensive as hell, but solid and worth the money.
Love the design and functionality of their products. Surely one of the absolute best EDC companies!
Absolutely love Big Idea Designs products. Own nearly every item mentioned here, as I have all the screwdrivers and the utility knife, plus prybar. Only haven't tried any of their pens/pencils or watch yet. The new knife is also definitely tempting. Can't wait to see what else they come up with!
There watches aren’t that good to be honest… I wouldn’t recommend them.
I sold my Slim Click pen a while ago, but I remember the refill size being adjusted simply by twisting the clicker at the top. No tool required.
Funny you mentioned the pocket protector, I use one for some of my gear and i love it! I definitely think it would be of use to many shop folks.
I have a v1 BDEDC TPT Slide and have carried it every day since launch and it is WORN…you’d be stunned lol
This is beyond awesome. 😄😄
I have the slim bolt and the mini clic and use them at work daily! Such great feeing pens
The designed products are very practical and everything is worth it
I've owned the Slim Bolt Action Ti pen with a Timascus clip for about 2 months. Worth every penny 😎
I've always had the same problems with fountain pens, as a lefty. But your endorsement has convinced me to get one. Nice video!
Awesome stuff, definitely going to get some of there amazing products.
Love their design language. I picked up one of the dual side click pens about a year ago and I enjoy the feel. Unfortunately the side click release mechanism is far far far to sensitive and releases if the wind blows to hard. In retrospect I wish I would have gotten the Bolt Action.
I have the big and little pry bars. Couldn't be happier. I had been looking for a year.
Not sure if it is a feature you overlooked, or a development in later models, but I have the slim click and you can adjust the length of the internals by turning the clicker. Super easy to adjust without a tool.
Probably a month ago I spent over $600 on their website. I laughed to myself as I mumbled sarcastically "thanks Taylor Martin".
Now I see a few things in this video I don't have, but unfortunately want. So I'll say it to you instead of to myself... thanks a lot Taylor Martin 😅
$1,854 worth of stuff ($1,954 if you have the automatic watch) is a lot of cheese! Some gorgeous items though
I have been dying to get one of their watches but life has been nuts recently!
I think that this knife is the OEM of Peter Mckinnon's knife that he released a few months back.. those scales are uncanny.. Love that boxy look!
Now we need all of these items in CC Topo for the win 🙌🏼
Man I’m not into pens at all. Afraid I’m going to lose them, but I would love to try out one of big ideas stone washed bolt action. Just looks amazing.
Love these videos!
I am so happy BigIDesign now offered a flipper utility knife. I avoided thier TPT Slide, because I wanted to avoid the "out the front" action.
I kind of wish more of the utility blade was encased, which is a problem with the TiRant, and the Arena - Flipout as well.
At $175.00, the price is out of my income bracket, but seems reasonable when compared to the Zero Tolerance 450, or Quiet Carry iQ, but these have blades made out of higher end steels.
It seems like BigIDesign added the cost of scales, to the cost of a TPT Slide. Which is why the price makes sense, but it is out of my income bracket. [I need to stick to Husky, and Milwaukie; for their utility knives, especially since I rarely use a knife in my day to day life.
BigIDesign Utility very cool, but I can't justify it for my use case/ income bracket.
Video started, and I immediately thought "looking good bro!" Keep it up.
I’m really glad you talked about the pocket clips! First question I had. ( TI pocket knife)
Just be aware that frame and liner locks aren't really lefty friendly even if you can switch the clip.
@@jeremylince9307 I am…but excellent point!
Oh yeah, I love me some big idea design stuff very high-quality
youre the man Marty!!
The Slim Click you just turn the click button. Don't need a long thin screwdriver.
Mine might be different. I believe mine was a prototype.
You can also adjust the slim click by holding the click button and turning the body. I actually find that easier to do.
Recently found BID. Great product
Those pens are sweet!
I have the mini bolt action pen in stonewashed ti, the standard bolt action pen in copper, and the edc screwdriver in stonewashed ti. Great material, great build quality, but you will pay for it. 🤑
Awesome round up video on Big Idea Design products. Are you going to do a collaboration with the Utility knife? That would be great to see in topo.
One of my favorite pens of all time for edc is the Pen of Greatness from Modern Rogue, it'd be awesome for you to check it out. Its slim and has a ton of versatility!
I just looked it up. Looks crazy cool and was going to order one but there sold out
@@B-RaDD Only bad thing is it doesn't come with the lifetime warranty like the Modern Rogue one has.
They come out with so much useful stuff all they’re missing is a tape measure.
Hey Taylor! Not new to this page and have been a fan for a while, but this is my first comment, would you by chance know if they 3D print these titanium tools with binder jetting, or do they machine them? Which I know is very hard to do
Ok the pen with a chuck on it is Fantastic!
I can take the ink tube out of any random pen I find and refill my pen
Pretty sure I’d never buy another pen but Momma told me when I was a kid “Never say never”
Great informative presentation. Cowabunga.!
I live in San Antonio Texas. I'm new to EDC.
What are some of the best shows/events i should try making my way to?
I wonder if you can Put the New heavy duty clip on the slim bolt action pen.
On the pocket knife I'd be slightly worried about the clip being a hotspot - does it dig in when you grip it tight?
The clip on both pens I purchased from them became loose and started rattling which was annoying. I eventually figured out how to fix it, but I shouldn't have to fix a $100 dollar pen. My Tactile turn hasn't had any issues and the clip is way thicker.
BiD has gotten a lot of my money lately! 😂 Great products.
The slim click pen all you have to do is click it to deploy the ink and you turn the click piece to adjust the length. Don’t need a screw driver.
How does the big idea design utility knife compare to the exceed design razer v3?
I love big idea design! Just I don’ t know which screwdriver to buy!!!! Who has some experience here?
I dig that Shirt. And as a moron..I’m clueless as to who makes it. Great vid. Great music. And I thank ya. Cheers
It’s my design. 🤘🏻 carry.best
It’s the Pete’s pirate knife for $200 less. I wasted some money but don’t regret it
Do a Cutlery video.
Please 🙏🏽 looking for a nice setup
Spoon/ fork
All BiD needs to do now is make their own little EDC pouch to carry all that gear around in.💯
hmmmmm... you might be on to something.. stay tuned!
@Taylor Martin if you have to push on the nib to get the ink to flow then the nib tines are probably too tight or a piece of paper fibre is in it. If you have a feeler gauge take the thinnest and try sliding it between the tines this will do two things, floss the nib removing debris and check the tinea adjustment. The feeler should just grab when removing it. If it feels super tight there are ways to adjust it. I would watch a nib adjustment video, plenty of YTers have done them. But a properly adjusted nib should rest on the paper and lay down a line. Then you will love writing with a fountain pen. Great video! Just a shame my wallet will be empty again soon. 😂
I meant that as a right-handed user, you pull when you write. Lefties are pushing (left to right) when they write. It’s just physics. I didn’t mean I had to bare down on it - just talking about the direction of the pen
@@BestDamnEDC ah, that makes more sense now. Being a lefty myself I write with the paper sideways and my writing goes down the page and from tight to left. Helps to not smear the ink too.
Nice Nice Nice, but something needs to be said about the pricing.
Bro, what was that outro music you used?
Need that in my life...
this or the exceed design can you do a comparison?
Can you talk about your black ring on your finger in a future video? is there anything special about it? I saw on another channel, a ring of this kind with a tool for freeing oneself from handcuffs inside. Is this the case for you too?
175 for a utility knife???
EDC community, I need help. I want to get my first knife. Ive carried a simple Kershaw in the past but haven't carried a knife in a while. I am absolutely obsessed with the look of the Petrified Fish Beluga but I want an American made knife. Are there any knives with that same shape and blade shape but that are American made you can point me toward.
You missed the Ti EDC Wrench
I covered it in the past
Algo
Beautiful things.
But sadly they are too expensive for all the lovers of such things.
My only complaint about Big Idea Design is there customer service or should I say complete lack thereof. I have had issues with a bolt action pen since Christmas and can't get any type of a response from them. I know my issue would be a simple fix or replacement. The problem has prohibited me from carry or using thier product sadly.
When he says Pen or Pin it all sounds the same
Way overpriced, it is nice that all things made from titanium, but all the things from BID are really overpriced
You think 2020 is a long time ago?
Relative to this UA-cam channel it is
sorry but 100 for a screwdriver is crazy tf
I like EDC and I have some, but I never do anything so never use it.
Awesome stuff. Kinda weird that EDC started out as prepped stuff but it’s moving towards this fruity place. What was once practicality and survival is now toys and vanity. Sort of a microcosm of societal changes. I’m including myself in that too, I just think it’s interesting.
I have a question that I hope someone here could answer - why do almost all of those pocket tools companies do these tools in titanium only? I almost never see cheaper versions of these tools made out of steel. Is there a legitimate reason why these tools have to be titanium or is it just that when they are their profit margin can be higher? And yes, I do know that titanium is expensive and harder to work with, but more affordable options would be really welcome.
Because Ti is light weight. If you want any hope of actually carrying all these pocket toys around with you they need to be as light as possible.
Most people end up just leaving this stuff on their dresser after a few days.
Ugh why can’t I edit this on my phone?
Anyways I realize that probably cam across as negative. It was more a commentary on my own past purchases (not from big idea designs).
It takes a while to realize what you (as a particular individual) will actually find worthwhile to carry around.
Hiiiii
Second!
Too spencive
bdedc
That scroo driwer cost 120€ and for that kind of money you can buy much more than plane scroo driwer with bits. Today is all abaut not big edeyas rather they cud coll them selws fast profit ,pens for 150€ and scalpels for 85€ . That is not way too scy rocket the price, they can hawe booth with Marphiones 4,500€ knifes . And real cost and laber is from India, not from China. But they regrind the blade sam ass Big idea with theirs thing its youk what price they have.
Second
Love what they do, just wish they didn’t manufacture everything in China.
First
These prices are for PTB/EDC.
"PTB" pretend to be .
Cost to make is below 10$ but sold to clowns for a 100$++
I divided this into 2 sections. My new keychain flashlight, and a mini folding knife that i am tempted to buy...
-------------------------------
Keychain flashlight
-------------------------------
I recently got the Mecarmy "X1S" titanium keychain "twisty" flashlight, and think it has a very well balanced brightness and beam pattern for everyday tasks. Because of this, i am able to actually enjoy the simplicity of a flashlight with only 2 modes. I also think its runtimes is just right for what i need from a keychain flashlight.
Size: Length is 45.1mm/1.775in, and the head diameter is 14.5mm/0.57in. This is considerably shorter than the Olight "i3E EOS" (worlds smallest AAA flashlight), and just a LITTLE thicker.
Weight: 16g/0,564oz (including battery - on my scale)
Modes: High mode is 130 lumen, and the manufacturer specifies "Low" mode as 8 lumens, but reviews say its 12 lumen, and it definitely looks about twice as bright as the 6 lumen mode on the Olight "i1R 2 Pro".
Runtimes: Runtimes are usually rated for the time it takes before it has dropped to maybe 1 lumen or something. If you ask me, this is both confusing and misleading, so i did my own tests on "low" mode, and at the 2 hour mark it was (IMO) more than bright enough for finding my way home in the dark. At 2,5 hours it was definitely useable in a pinch, but was starting to get a bit dim (i like dim lights btw, but not too dim). At 3 hours it was no longer useable for hiking, but would still function as a tentlight... High mode dropped to about the same brightness after 30 minutes.
Beam pattern: Its got TIR optics which produce a nice "medium" sized hotspot with a soft halo around it, and very little spill. The beam (including halo) spreads out to around 62cm/24.4" diameter for every meter distance to the target.
Color temp: Neutral white
Battery and charging; It comes with a 100mAh 10180 battery (worlds smallest rechargeable), and has Micro USB port for charging, which took exactly 1 hour after running for 3 hours on low mode (i will probably never drain the battery that much again). USB C would have been nice, but im ok with Micro USB on such a small battery.
----------------------------------------------------------
Mini titanium liner lock folding knife:
----------------------------------------------------------
When checking out their website, i noticed the tiny Mecarmy "EK33S Titanium EDC Mini Folding Knife", which i think looks really cool. Its definitely a bit pricey for such a small knife, but the blade is M390 steel, and the size makes it very good for a small EDC box.
Here is a copy paste from their website:
Features:
Handmade, patented design
Probably the world's smallest titanium liner lock folding knife
Closed length only 49mm
Manual quick-opening design
Blade material M390 steel, handle material TC4 titanium
Vacuum oil hardened heat treated blade, durable and sharp
Liner lock, with replaceable locking plate, ceramic ball detent
Dimension:
Total length: 83mm/3.268in
Closed length: 49.5mm/1.95in
Width: 18.2mm/0.72in
Thickness: 10mm/0.394in
Weight: 25g/0.882oz
I’m left handed also.
