QC finally stocked the KNSWSW model and i scored last week to a go along with my Waypoints. the Drift L arrived last night and i could not ask for anything else in a knife. it’s still early, but i think it edges out the Waypoint L. thanks the review. it convinced me to pull the trigger.
Favorite knife I've bought in awhile. Action was so good I had to check for blade play too. But mine was solid and smooth fresh out the box. Cuts and carries great. Thing is a home run.
got mine 2 weeks back, I wish they'd do a lefty version but no complaints on mine, super smooth action, no blade play at all on mine out of the box. perfect in every way
I’m carrying my QC large drift at work rn I love it! Insane slicer. I preferred the size and choil of the original but the large is like having a bearing and washer knife all at once. Best of both worlds
I love the fact that they kept the same blade stock thickness on the Drift-L, looks like an absolute slicing beast. This one has moved pretty high up on my want list. I am trying to decide if I like the look of the choil on the original or no choil on the new large. you sure do get a lot of cutting edge on the large compared to the original.
Have one of these and a PNW Wharnetac currently on the way to me. Stoked to have two monochromatic milled beautiful pieces coming within a couple days of each other
Everything ive handled from quiet carry i love. V2 g10 drift all time favorite knife. Just wish they would think more about reversible clips :/ large contoured waypoint just launched limited 100 pieces magnacut. Sold out quick
Expensive knives, but about the same range as the upper end Spyderco. The cost is relative if you are a collector/knife blogger. For EDC there are too many, far cheaper and serviceable knives that I would not feel stupid if I lost the knife in the field or to the TSA screener at the airport. It would be fun to own as a gentleman's carry. Fun video liked and subscribed
Quiet carry you’re killing me, make more knives on bearings. I freaking love my drift LC and 9, so any knife quiet carry drops that’s running on bearings are auto scoop/rake my money!
If they would do a M390 run that would be sweet. But again if Taiwan can ever figure out heat treating. Heard several folks talk about having to sharpen it a couple times to get to good steel.
Damn, I wish I had that buzz instead of the tuxedo buzz I have. But I don’t think mine is anodized, it seems like some kinda coating on the scales, but I could be wrong
I like how u started saying you learned you don’t have to buy every knife and how you would’ve bought it previously, but then u conclude u might have to buy it 😂😂 I empathize completely w all that
As someone who hasn't popped their slipjoint cherry, does having a flush back spring have any functional benefits? Like a more solid half stop or walk and talk? Or is it purely an aesthetic and comfort thing?
I hate I missed out on the Nip in purple I got on there the next day after the drop & it was sold out I guess you snooze you loose. Hope you have a great week.

the gao owl is great and I'm tired of you not liking it😛
Its horrible 🤣
QC finally stocked the KNSWSW model and i scored last week to a go along with my Waypoints. the Drift L
arrived last night and i could not ask for anything else in a knife. it’s still early, but i think it edges out the Waypoint L.
thanks the review. it convinced me to pull the trigger.

They're going to have the Large Waypoint out soon. Both the Drift and Waypoint XL
I got a small one today ,and love it, what a slicer🗡️
Amazing knife. I have the original drift. Wish this one had some sort of texture on the lock side..
The small has a finger choil. Smoothest knife I've seen on washers. Once it breaks in my small is basically drop shut
Thanks Kev.
I need this knife. It looks oh so good 🤤
I’m carrying my QC large drift at work rn I love it! Insane slicer. I preferred the size and choil of the original but the large is like having a bearing and washer knife all at once. Best of both worlds
I love the fact that they kept the same blade stock thickness on the Drift-L, looks like an absolute slicing beast. This one has moved pretty high up on my want list. I am trying to decide if I like the look of the choil on the original or no choil on the new large. you sure do get a lot of cutting edge on the large compared to the original.
I’m right there with you on the blade stock 👍
Man thats rockin! Always wished my drift was a little bigger and now bam its here! Sweetttt
Have one of these and a PNW Wharnetac currently on the way to me. Stoked to have two monochromatic milled beautiful pieces coming within a couple days of each other
Just got the large waypoint. It's pretty frickin cool
Everything ive handled from quiet carry i love. V2 g10 drift all time favorite knife. Just wish they would think more about reversible clips :/ large contoured waypoint just launched limited 100 pieces magnacut. Sold out quick
Man the new waypoint LC looks dope too with the CNC milled blade with the lines like a norseman or skaha and in magnacut. Woahh
I would loooove a knurled silver fox stonewashed blade on the buzz
Any word on next batch of Growlers? Still hoping to get CF one😅
Not yet. Hopefully soon
Ok I’ll stand by!
Same
Expensive knives, but about the same range as the upper end Spyderco. The cost is relative if you are a collector/knife blogger.

They just came out with the waypoint xl
Yeah the economy! FJB!!!
FJB !!!
Quiet carry you’re killing me, make more knives on bearings. I freaking love my drift LC and 9, so any knife quiet carry drops that’s running on bearings are auto scoop/rake my money!
Yeah!
I totally missed on this "buzz"? You used as a. Comparison? Are they still available in the knurling config?
No sorry. Just in smooth ti different versions on our website, divoknives.com
I love it. But 300 box, it's expensive !!
If they would do a M390 run that would be sweet. But again if Taiwan can ever figure out heat treating. Heard several folks talk about having to sharpen it a couple times to get to good steel.
Dream knife fa sho!
QC been on my list for a while now...
Damn, I wish I had that buzz instead of the tuxedo buzz I have. But I don’t think mine is anodized, it seems like some kinda coating on the scales, but I could be wrong
I like how u started saying you learned you don’t have to buy every knife and how you would’ve bought it previously, but then u conclude u might have to buy it 😂😂 I empathize completely w all that
Haha
As usual I'm late to the game on this one.
Do these drop fairly often?
Or are they sold at other retailers?
As someone who hasn't popped their slipjoint cherry, does having a flush back spring have any functional benefits? Like a more solid half stop or walk and talk? Or is it purely an aesthetic and comfort thing?
Not really no
Hey Kev, I’m an XL just FYI! 😉
Funny, I just noticed the spring at the end of the other video.
What spring?
Nvm haha
Last thing.. is there any knurled handles available for the Buzz?
No sorry
Ahh well. Had to try😅
Wish they would put the thumb hole back in the drift
Studs>holes
It just didn’t work well. They adjusted on the fly. I give them big props for that move
Can you say what the pocket clip is that you've got on your growler?
Lynch northwest spyderco wire clip replacement
Gotta ask permission to do knurling, lol. Been on barbells and bolts forever, quite carry didn't invent it. Great knife and thanks for showing it off.
Yea but they do it very well
And it’s their thing.
Dibs on the shirt…?
Ill give it away tonight
There is an IRS agent watching this video…
What did I say about taxes?
As many QC knives that I’ve bought over the past 6 months, and all I’ve gotten are some stickers 😡🤬
U can buy the hat and shirt. Im giving the shirt away tonight.
Get some sleep Kev, I know you read these comments in the middle of the night 😆
Kev can't sleep until he reads your comments Drew.
@@Marco_Ye 😂
Looks like I will be able to also sleep tonight. Thanks Dr.
@@Marco_Ye lol. I do want I can 🙏
Nope sorry 🤣. 1am here
The "steel" totally ruins it.
Vanax? It’s the best
@@LeftyEDC I have wanted Vanax since forever. It's the logo that missed.
I hate I missed out on the Nip in purple I got on there the next day after the drop & it was sold out I guess you snooze you loose. Hope you have a great week.
Mine should be here Monday, bet there's not a hat or shirt in there. The UA-cam hook up is real. JK Kev.
