Iv never seen besttech before just fell in love the grinds remind me of we knives I can't afford those right now so this is a great option the blade is awesome.
Troy's Flooring Solutions Yo dude, WE Knives just released their budget line. Checkout the Civivi Backlash, Praxis and Naja. All winners, no d2 steel... but 10 dollars less and cheaper than a tenacious too.
setting a new bar for knives in this price range
Really enjoy your work some of the best on UA-cam love the the way you do so much to promote other channels and the knife community
I received my green Scimitar today and it is beautiful. Razor sharp centered perfectly and the G10 is beautiful. Thanks for the tip :-)
Sadly nowadays we should probably mention not to drink balistol 😂
My first Bestech should be here Monday. Filling the void of my broken Rat 2 work knife.
I bet you'll like it. The one's I've handled have been really good.
Thanks for watching and have a great day!
Zelrick Got it yesterday. Very pleased with the design for a $50 blade. However, the action is way too tight and you can feel the bearings dragging. I am sure i can tune it up when i disassemble it but there is not a lot of forgiveness in the centring to tweak it much. Like thousands of an inch off the liners.
Just getting the thick grease out and putting some oil in it will help a lot. I hope it all turns out great.
How did you break your Rat 2? Was it the blade or the handle?
I own a Rat 2 and it's pretty sturdy..
They are putting out some very nice knives for the money thank you for sharing Zel
Just ordered a scimitar. Great review. Now I need some ballistol.
Everyone needs Ballistol, I use it for nearly all general lube needs that a person would use WD40 for.
Enjoy that Scimitar, it's a cool one.
Thanks for watching and have a great day!
The Outdoor Dude Amazon has Ballistol. It's amazingly versatile for many uses. And it's safe.
I own this knife and whereas I really like the blade design, action and overall fit and finish, the D2 steel is not what I expected or hoped for. I dropped the knife on a wood pile and the tip chipped off just by making contact with the wood. Overall the steel just behaves very odd when sharpening. It takes a toothy edge then looses it and goes butter knife smooth, then rinse and repeat over and over again. I really wanted to love this knife but the steel is sh**! Save a couple bucks and get a Ruike or Real Steel in 14c28n or VG10 and spend 1/4 the time sharpening your knife more time using it!
I ordered the p121 hussar yesterday, then I found this one. the style is very similar ! But I think that the Bestech scimitar is a little more cool. I'm happy to see that I maybe did the best choice with the hussar.
I'm a little blown away with the materials and price for their G 10 knives
I am too Bryce, they are haveing some growing pains with the G10 knives but they are a steal.
Massdrop has it for $36.99 right now. Worth for the price?
Another reason to love Ballistol! :)
Beautiful knife and a great review :)
Thanks!
Thanks for watching and have a great day!
Everyone of these are sold out on Amazon where is the best place to buy.
BladeHQ has had them and there was one dealer on EBay.
Thanks for watching and have a great day!
Free spinning pivot, what does that mean? Or what is the affect of it? Do I have to continually tighten the pivot when I use it?
nope nothing like that, it just means that it may be a pain to disassemble. The sleeve side of the pivot is not captured, so that it won't move and has no place to put a driver, so it can spin when you try to adjust the pivot screw. , in the Kendo "What's inside?" Video show some ways to work around it.
If you drink the Ballistol... well, remember me in your will!
mmmmmm.... Ballistol smells so yummy.
You are off the WE scene and now on Bestech?
Nope, I'm a whatever is on my table a the moment guy, lots of other brands on the docket, but these Bestech knives needed to be cleared to move on to other things.
I like the knife but I'm like you, I'm not a big fan of that heavy upsweep on the belly.
