There’s a small scratch on the back of the schrade that clearly shows that it’s alluminum. Glass reinforced nylon doesn’t shiny and metallic under paint. Lol
The Schrade is aluminium. I tested mine, and it seems to be just a little bit softer than the aluminium used on Cold Steel's Code 4, but it sure is aluminium. After a few months of use I have yet to experience the problem with lock up. You might just have been unlucky, but then again, I might just have been lucky with mine. Will test it again when I get back home to make sure :) Other than that, totally agree :)
Good to see your review on these 2 knives. I have been carrying the Boker for a couple years with no failures, great knife for the money. Just bought one with sv30 steel for $60. Love your channel keep it up.
I just got my Boker Kalashnikov 74 auto in the mail today and I am absolutely blown away by how well this knife functions..I pops out with authority,if you didn’t have a little bit of a grip on it,the knife would jump out of your hand..I just seen BladeHQ got some other Boker autos in that are made in D2..I believe it was the Boker “Strike” and they are just a couple bucks more than the Kalashnikov 74 auto at $50 a pop..I will be ordering one of them later this week
I like the boker I have bought that knife over and over. It’s a good work knife for what I do. Only issue is I have had a blade break when I dropped it, Nd the spring has now broken in 2 knives. But that’s over a few years of constant use
I have 2 Benchmade Auto’s... one of which I carried for 2 years. I now have a Boker 74 and have carried it for I think 4 years and love it. The button on mine sticks up further than the one on your knife. At least I think it does. You can actually feel mine above the handle... I do have to tighten it every once in a while though...
Just got the new Kalashnikov with harpoon blade, my first Kalashnikov. Yes, it's aus 8 but for $43, I have no problem with that. What blew me away is how hard it fires out! Dare I say better than my Protech tr-4. Going directly into my pocket as my edc. Came hair shaving sharp as well. And the coolest box too!
Aaron Thanks My best friend just sent me a Dagger blade D2 Blackwash Kalashnikov today for Christmas And so far I love it It’s my first automatic since the Buck Quickfire which really sucks I appreciate the testing God bless
Bought the Boker yesterday and then this vid popped up on my feed. I watched on pins and needles waiting to see if I made the right choice. Thanks! Great video.
I like how you point out that your opinions are your opinions in a world where everyone thinks they’ve gotta be right, great reviews man, I’m bout to go watch one on the launch now 👌🏻
Own 3 Boker auto kalashnikov auto knives and have no issues. Had them for over a year as my daily carries and love them. You get a lot of knife for the price. Obviously not a benchmade or a microtech, but trust them. I wear a schrade karambit neck knife, but that was the only knife design that appealed to me.
The Boker Kalashnikov is hands down the best budget auto .Even in S30V or XHP it can be found in the sub $70 price range. Replacement springs are cheap and readily available. I recently purchased a mini Kalashnikov in XHP for edc and I love it. This is one high value/low price auto.
I like it enough to get a full size XHP Kalashnikov, too. The mini gets a touch up on a ceramic hone occasionally but it has an impressive edge holding quality regardless. This seems to be the type of material you'd be better off keeping up with the edge rather than letting it get dull. Recently I purchased the Cold Steel Code 4, Recon 1, American Lawman, and the Talwar in CTS-XHP.
I'm Canadian as well...the problem with our laws it that it leaves a ton of it up to the RCMP/metro police... the can and do take away blades whether they are legal or not...and their is zero you can really do about it... because the laws are fairly vague and leave it up to the police to decide...
you can even be charged...as you need to have a good reason to be carrying any blade in public....and saying it's for self defense doesn't have legal grounds here...as it's illegal to defend yourself with a weapon here.... You can be charged for carrying a wrench here if they deem it...
Randy Yeager Just don't act stupid with your blade and they won't care. Take it out, use it, put it back and you should have no problem. It also helps for them to not be finding it once they're already searching you because of another crime/suspicious behaviour.
Im in Oregon which is great because not only do we have Benchmade, Kershaw, CRKT, Gerber, and Leatherman but we also have very relaxed knife laws. Its legal here to carry a ballistic knife
Good video, very informative. I had a bit of side-to-side blade wobble on one of my Bokers, and was able to tighten the pivot screw ever so slightly. Now there is no play.
Really enjoyed the video. I have been wanting an automatic for a long time now but they are usually too expensive for the good ones. This comparison video was very informative. I was going to get the Schrade even after the review because I really liked the way it looked but, after going to the Blade HQ website I found a Boker in all black with a blade that I really liked so I went with it instead. I have a couple Boker knives already that are manual openers and I carried them each for years without any complaints. The brand impressed me. Thanks again for the review. Very helpful.
It's just the coating on the aluminum man. Great video I just ordered on of bikers limited edition kalashnikovs it's the blue and black all their new colors are great
Too bad; I much prefer the blade shape of the Schrade. It's been over a year since you published this program, has there been any action by Schrade to fix/improve the locking mechanism?
Yea I have a couple of Boker knifes and they are all great for the price you can’t go wrong I have $30 $50 and $100 Bokers and love them all the same great knifes 🔪
Thanks for the nice review. I live in Illinois which usually sucks in regard to any LAWS regarding guns or knifes. However the Governor just passed a law that says if you have an illinois gun card you can carry and own automatic knifes. We just got a new governor in the last midterm election, hoping he don’t change the laws around. We were the last state to offer CCW. I know other states are worse than illinois but here they have made it very expensive to get your CCW.
I feel for you. Illinois only got CCW because SCOTUS more-or-less said they had to (Mcdonald vs. Chicago), so the legislators in Obamaland drag their heels whenever they think they can get away with it. In Michigan, the laws have been slowly relaxed, but the potheads who got lured out from under their rocks by a recreational weed initiative on the last ballot voted in Wretched Twitmer as our state's governor, and SHE wants to implement New York style gun control despite the fact that we've been doing reasonably well without it. Bet she'd re-instate the ban on automatic knives, too, if she thought she could get away with it... >:(
In today's market, the Boker Strike auto is under $40 and is an excellent edc auto. I carried one until I made the switch to a double action OTF auto Microtech Ultratech. But the Boker Strike auto is an excellent budget auto.
@@bartholomewnelson1801 I got rid of them when Colorado law enforcement discovered I owned them and confiscated them before charging me with an Illegal weapons charge for each one. 122 in total. I got lucky had the arresting officer not completely screwed up getting the case dismissed I would've faced 60+ years.
I love my bokers also. Have bought 3. Two got stolen. Third one doesnt leave my sight now. They have all been razor sharp and havent ever had a problem.
@Dill Rogerz I've lost a Kershaw Launch, Manix 2 Lightweight S110V, Kershaw Skyline, Leatherman wingman, a lightning OTF, and I'm sure a few more I can't think of. Idk where a single one of them went except the lightning OTF. I distinctly remember leaving it on top of a refrigerator back when I cleaned restauraunts.
If you scratch the handle and the material in the scratch is silver colored, it is metal and likely Al. If the material in the scratch is the same color as the surface of it is injection molded. some sort of nylon or plastic.
Beautiful review I would not have a problem with any of the blades , the rubber cut is sumwhat an extrem test , but the price is right , just for the simple fact I personally would not put my high dollar blades through extream use , That's why we have cheaper blades , beautiful review
Hold the Schrade still for a second and you’d see the nick in the handle above the lock showing it’s aluminum and not polymer. It’s more than likely some mim process that gives it the odd feel
My Boker has zero blade play I think the Kalashnikov is a great knife I have a friend who's carried they same Boker ak74 for 10 + years I just got one from my son for my birthday
Not excusing the design of the plunge lock on the Shrade but all autos have blade play due to the design of the mechanisms. BladehQ actually covered this in one of their videos. My state, Illinois, just allowed autos and I got a +$230 Benchmade (Adamas) with blade play. Even Microtechs supposedly have blade play. According to the BladeHQ video only one auto (@ I blue e the price point of $1500) has no play and they consider it the future of autos.
only issues i had with my boker was initial sharpness wasnt too hot and i had to decommission the spring for state laws but in a few weeks im ordering a new coil spring
Just bought a black on black boker with a carbon fiber kydex sheath. Ive always gone spyderco but wanted to mx thing up ever since i lost my Paramilitary 2 :( I also picked up a boker balisong trainer.
Good video sir. Is it me or did Schrade "borrow" the Benchmade Rift blade design? (Just happened to have my Rift in front of me while I watched this vid.)
I find it hard to believe that there's a dagger sharpened on Both sides Also I can a D2 version same price should I pull the trigger on that or not big of a Deal Ehaothe coating on the Boker
You have issues with that Boker button? Dude my hands are huge and that button is phenomenal. PS all autos have minor side to side play. Lest the action be slow due to friction.
I love where I live since I literally could carry around any sort of sharp weapon and not get stopped any knife is legal here! Also I have a gerber 06 auto military edition auto knife! It's awesome! I got it from a military girl who just wanted to let it go as she got a new issue knife I only payed $20! Yeah $20 for a gerber auto with nice steel!
Yeah back when Schrade was actually Schrade and made in the United States. Quality steel's especially their carbon. Great designs and Superbly constructed. I've got old schrade's that give case xx and buck a run for their money.
Great review as usual! I have the same clip point Kalashnikov, just in the all blacked out version. Great knife. Although I don't think it actually has a reversible pocket clip. If you look closely where it sits at the butt of the handle, there are little cutouts that allow it to fit snugly in place. The other side does not have these. Juuuust for future reference. Haha Peace man!
The plunge button coming out further on the Schrade is another safety mechanism. It maintains that the tang engagement never slips all the way. It's a built in feature! I love my SC90BS with 6061 T6 aluminium handles, especially since I got it for $13 on sale!
i just ordered this shrade from blade hq a couple weeks ago.. i love it. only difference is my lock is in the same location but on the spine, not the handle scale..... anyone else have one with the lock on the spine?
I really enjoyed your video and review. I have already purchased a Junglas and Esee 6 based at least partially on your reviews of those knives. I believe that the Stone Wash is the better finish. At least that is the one I prefer. I have some hesitation when using My Esee knives in food prep because of the original finish. So the Stone wash would be my preferred finish and thank you for another great video and review. ronintucson
@@ksdad2two I believe you can carry any knife with a blade 3.5" or less. To carry anything larger you need to have a proof you are using it for a use like hunting." That is as I understand it at least. You can do a quick search and find the actual laws.
THIS level of honest, practical assessment (not ridiculous destruction tests!) is why GT is my go to gear channel!
For nearly 4 years now the Boker Kalashnikov is my most carried knife. As good today as the day I got it, and just the right size/weight for me.
There’s a reason the Boker K is becoming a budget classic
There’s a small scratch on the back of the schrade that clearly shows that it’s alluminum. Glass reinforced nylon doesn’t shiny and metallic under paint. Lol
The Schrade is aluminium. I tested mine, and it seems to be just a little bit softer than the aluminium used on Cold Steel's Code 4, but it sure is aluminium.

I just got a Boker from HQ and I absolutely love it on sale from $75-$34 fantastic buy!
reminds me of Germany they have street markets where they usuaally had those kalashnikov knives in the goofy dragunov magazine box

16:53 ADHD button
Lmao
Thanks brah 😰
The boker is not aluminum. The handles are zinc alloy. Tried to do an anodizing once. Handles basically dissolved.
according to Boker's website the scales are Aluminum, www.bokerusa.com/pocketknives/kalashnikov/kals-74-01kals74n. You may have got a clone?
Bobby Robertson I doubt there's many clones of a $30 knife
F
I like that backdrop, it's perfect for the Knife reviews.
Aaron Thanks My best friend just sent me a Dagger blade D2 Blackwash Kalashnikov today for Christmas And so far I love it It’s my first automatic since the Buck Quickfire which really sucks
I appreciate the testing
God bless
LOVE my Boker. Probably my favorite knife right now even though it's one of my cheapest.
I've had a Boker Magnum with black Tanto blade for years. It has never let me down. I think Boker makes good knives. Awesome review!
Bought the Boker yesterday and then this vid popped up on my feed. I watched on pins and needles waiting to see if I made the right choice. Thanks! Great video.

Recently I purchased the Cold Steel Code 4, Recon 1, American Lawman, and the Talwar in CTS-XHP.
You won't regret it Cypress Hunter. I would classify it as a high value back up blade. Enjoy.
You won't be sorry.
Here in Canada we can't have automatics but we can have assisted and we don't have a blade size law. I can open carry a sword.
The Tod please open carry downtown and tape it wanna see ur face in the back of a police car😢
Barry Bueler He's telling the truth. I live there too and swords are not restricted at all.
I'm Canadian as well...the problem with our laws it that it leaves a ton of it up to the RCMP/metro police... the can and do take away blades whether they are legal or not...and their is zero you can really do about it... because the laws are fairly vague and leave it up to the police to decide...

Any reliable EDC knife w a safety button? I like the safety button for the kids. I know it’s not a Be All deterrent but useful for me.
Aaron thanks for having great channel. Take care and God bless you and your family brother.
I love my Boker Kalashnikov with Cts-xhp steel! One of my favorites!
Im in Oregon which is great because not only do we have Benchmade, Kershaw, CRKT, Gerber, and Leatherman but we also have very relaxed knife laws. Its legal here to carry a ballistic knife
Good video, very informative. I had a bit of side-to-side blade wobble on one of my Bokers, and was able to tighten the pivot screw ever so slightly. Now there is no play.
You really think there's a version of the spearpoint that's sharpened on both edges? It kinda obvious why that's not possible with a folder.
Ikr
I jave the boker spear point and love it. I'm a truck driver and also have a hk snd a Gerber Sykes l, but my edc is the boker

I'm glad I live in PA for the relaxed weapons laws. The only knives regulated in PA is daggers.
Thanks Aaron! Always liked the looks of those Bokers. Glad to hear it's a good knife for the $
ive had my k74 11 yrs still going strong
Too bad; I much prefer the blade shape of the Schrade. It's been over a year since you published this program, has there been any action by Schrade to fix/improve the locking mechanism?
Use a continuity tester on the scales. Aluminum will conduct current, but I don't think polymer will.
Yea I have a couple of Boker knifes and they are all great for the price you can’t go wrong I have $30 $50 and $100 Bokers and love them all the same great knifes 🔪
Great info. Just ordered a Boker in the Tanto style, all black. Pretty excited.

The Schrade Handle IS Aluminun - I can see where it has been nicked & that part shines. If you wanted to really find out 4 sure U can scratch it...
I think Boker is the best I love your channel keep up the great work I watch all of your videos you rock man👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🍺
In today's market, the Boker Strike auto is under $40 and is an excellent edc auto. I carried one until I made the switch to a double action OTF auto Microtech Ultratech. But the Boker Strike auto is an excellent budget auto.
I bought a HK auto knife at Big 5 sporting goods, here were I live. It is one of the best auto knives I’ve bought.Only 19.99 on sale.
Saved me time and money. As always, thanks and keep the excellent reviews coming. Thanks!
You could find a sharp object and try to get through the coating an the schrade handle. That might reveal if the handle is aluminum or not.
What do you think of Boker using D2 steel instead of AUS-8?
Colorado's ban lift is EXACTLY why I am watching this. Moved from a legal state 10 years ago have missed my autos and balisongs since!
You actually got rid of them when you moved?
@@bartholomewnelson1801
I got rid of them when Colorado law enforcement discovered I owned them and confiscated them before charging me with an Illegal weapons charge for each one.
122 in total. I got lucky had the arresting officer not completely screwed up getting the case dismissed I would've faced 60+ years.
Background is awesome and the review was great. Thank you for the info!
I've carried the Boer daily since 2006. Great work horse. Paid $26.00 spring is a little weak these days.
Haven't watched yet. My guess is the Boker is good and the Schrade sucks.
Michael Warnock which one? I just bought my black on black tanto
Michael Warnock which variant like drop point, spear, tanto, color?
I love my bokers also. Have bought 3. Two got stolen. Third one doesnt leave my sight now. They have all been razor sharp and havent ever had a problem.
@Dill Rogerz I've lost a Kershaw Launch, Manix 2 Lightweight S110V, Kershaw Skyline, Leatherman wingman, a lightning OTF, and I'm sure a few more I can't think of. Idk where a single one of them went except the lightning OTF. I distinctly remember leaving it on top of a refrigerator back when I cleaned restauraunts.
I've got both knives never had a problem with either. You can take the play out of the blades with a torn driver.
Great review, First time I visited your site. Keep them coming, THX
If you scratch the handle and the material in the scratch is silver colored, it is metal and likely Al. If the material in the scratch is the same color as the surface of it is injection molded. some sort of nylon or plastic.
Put a tooth or tongue to it. If it's cold it's metal, if it's not it's plastic
Ak74 in xhp is the bomb I love mine I want to get another one before you can't get them anymore
For budget I love my boker..its as rugged as the rifle its named after, invincible little knife
Beautiful review I would not have a problem with any of the blades , the rubber cut is sumwhat an extrem test , but the price is right , just for the simple fact I personally would not put my high dollar blades through extream use ,
That's why we have cheaper blades , beautiful review
Glad I purchased the Boker - thanks Aaron for the thorough review!
Hold the Schrade still for a second and you’d see the nick in the handle above the lock showing it’s aluminum and not polymer. It’s more than likely some mim process that gives it the odd feel
Today is May 16 2021 - has this problem been addressed by Schrade 3 1/2 years later ?
My Boker has zero blade play I think the Kalashnikov is a great knife I have a friend who's carried they same Boker ak74 for 10 + years I just got one from my son for my birthday
Not excusing the design of the plunge lock on the Shrade but all autos have blade play due to the design of the mechanisms. BladehQ actually covered this in one of their videos.

According to the BladeHQ video only one auto (@ I blue e the price point of $1500) has no play and they consider it the future of autos.
Not to be difficult but aluminum is silver and plastic is not. There is a nick on the back of the Schrade near the lock showing silver.
Im in Colorado as well any boker strikes you want to get rid of?
Thank you sir, your tests made my decision for me a LOT easier!
I'd go with the Boker for sure.👍
Take a look at the kershaw link 1776.. Good quality at a reasonable price often below 30 bucks
only issues i had with my boker was initial sharpness wasnt too hot and i had to decommission the spring for state laws but in a few weeks im ordering a new coil spring
You can turn the Schrade into a fixed blade. That's a neat feature.
With the XHP blade edition of Boker, would you rate that higher than the AUS-8?
How could you think it’s grn, when theres a scratch on it showing the aluminum? Its aluminum. I modded one and have it bare.
Got a spring assist schrade for 17 things solid heavy as shit. Boker wharncliffe also. Love it. Bout to order another one...
Just bought a black on black boker with a carbon fiber kydex sheath. Ive always gone spyderco but wanted to mx thing up ever since i lost my Paramilitary 2 :( I also picked up a boker balisong trainer.
Boker knives are great. I just got the sub ak74 in s30v and it is amazing
I've been needing a good auto knife to cut tomatoes with. Thanks.
Good video sir. Is it me or did Schrade "borrow" the Benchmade Rift blade design? (Just happened to have my Rift in front of me while I watched this vid.)
I find it hard to believe that there's a dagger sharpened on Both sides Also I can a D2 version same price should I pull the trigger on that or not big of a Deal Ehaothe coating on the Boker
You have issues with that Boker button? Dude my hands are huge and that button is phenomenal. PS all autos have minor side to side play. Lest the action be slow due to friction.
Good to know! I have been looking for a good Automatic Knife. I carry a SOG Fielder, folding knife and I love it but I want an auto.
Thanks for the video! Helped me make a proper and inexpensive decision!
I love where I live since I literally could carry around any sort of sharp weapon and not get stopped any knife is legal here! Also I have a gerber 06 auto military edition auto knife! It's awesome! I got it from a military girl who just wanted to let it go as she got a new issue knife I only payed $20! Yeah $20 for a gerber auto with nice steel!
Is there a Schrade folder that doesn't suck?
Probably the schrade oldtimers
Ernest Wong I like there pry tools but honestly who can mess up a pry tool
Yeah back when Schrade was actually Schrade and made in the United States. Quality steel's especially their carbon. Great designs and Superbly constructed. I've got old schrade's that give case xx and buck a run for their money.
Yes the schrade buck 112 copy made in the USA
Schf40 fixed blade
Carried Boker for 6 years never a problem
Great review as usual! I have the same clip point Kalashnikov, just in the all blacked out version. Great knife. Although I don't think it actually has a reversible pocket clip. If you look closely where it sits at the butt of the handle, there are little cutouts that allow it to fit snugly in place. The other side does not have these. Juuuust for future reference. Haha Peace man!
On the back where you scratched it, it’s looks like it’s aluminum but it’s coated
I've had issues with my Boker. The big one being, the lock failed.
I have a question, do you guys ship to Canada?
The plunge button coming out further on the Schrade is another safety mechanism. It maintains that the tang engagement never slips all the way. It's a built in feature! I love my SC90BS with 6061 T6 aluminium handles, especially since I got it for $13 on sale!
Your logo on the backdrop would be good.
William Rainone burned in?!?
Branding would be super beneficial to him.
i just ordered this shrade from blade hq a couple weeks ago.. i love it. only difference is my lock is in the same location but on the spine, not the handle scale..... anyone else have one with the lock on the spine?
Are they legal in New York?
Excellent video too btw!
At 05:37 I think you can see the aluminum showing through the coating.
I really enjoyed your video and review. I have already purchased a Junglas and Esee 6 based at least partially on your reviews of those knives. I believe that the Stone Wash is the better finish. At least that is the one I prefer. I have some hesitation when using My Esee knives in food prep because of the original finish. So the Stone wash would be my preferred finish and thank you for another great video and review. ronintucson
I've heard the Kalashnikov wobble is anomalous. It is supposedly fixed by tightening the screw and blue loctite.
im in colorado. so automatic knifes are ok to carry??? please tell me it’s true!!!
LALO GALLARDO Yes, the law was repelled earlier this year.
In my state N.H. We have absolutely NO KNIFE LAWS AT ALL ! LIVE FREE OR DIE 👍🏼.
What are the two models of kershaw launch series knifes you mentioned in the beginning of the video?
Happy to see the Boker is still king. I'm assuming both are made in China. Backdrop looks good.
Son of Dad boker is Taiwan I believe
Hello, from a fellow Coloradan. Great review, my boker is on the way.
Can you carry a fixed blade knife in Colorado?
What are conceal carry laws in Colorado? ( both knife and guns)
@@ksdad2two I believe you can carry any knife with a blade 3.5" or less. To carry anything larger you need to have a proof you are using it for a use like hunting." That is as I understand it at least. You can do a quick search and find the actual laws.
