This video review by Nutnfancy focuses on the Cold Steel Rajah III, a folding knife with a kukri blade. The reviewer highlights its robust construction, superior strength, and suitability for tactical and EDC roles. Key features discussed include the AUS8A blade, Demko Tri-Ad lock, Grivory handle, and ambidextrous design with dual pocket clips. Potential improvements like milled liners are mentioned, alongside tips for enhancing grip and pocket retrieval. The knife is praised for its excellent value at $55 and achieves a high likability score.

This video reviews the Kershaw Antelope Hunter (1028) and Bear Hunter (#1029) fixed-blade knives. The reviewer highlights their lightweight design, full flat ground drop-point blades, and excellent edge holding capabilities. While noting the use of 8CR13Mov steel, which requires care to prevent rust but offers good toughness and sharpness, the reviewer praises their slicing, skinning, and utility performance. The finger-grooved co-polymer handles and effective jimping are lauded for providing good traction, even suggesting potential defensive roles. The primary drawback identified is the traditional sheath design, with a recommendation for Kydex or plastic alternatives to enhance their already high value, especially considering their sub-$20 price point in 2011. The Antelope Hunter is favored for camp or backpacking use.

This video is a review of the redesigned Cold Steel AK-47 and Mini AK-47 knives from 2010. The reviewer highlights significant improvements over the original models, focusing on reduced weight due to non-steel lined G10 handles, improved blade grinds, hollow grinding, razor sharpness, and the Andrew Demko Triad lock mechanism. The Triad lock is tested rigorously and proves to be very strong. The review also discusses the AUS8A steel, Teflon coating wear, and the aluminum pommel's utility. The knives are recommended for tactical use (full size) and EDC/backpacking (mini), with high marks on the Nutnfancy Likability Scale.
