This video provides a concise review of the M10 Gryphon, a compact fixed-blade knife featuring a full flat grind and VG10 steel. The reviewer highlights its sharpness out-of-the-box, excellent edge retention, and the strength of its tip. The Zytel handle offers good traction, and the jimping is present, though could be sharper. A significant upgrade mentioned is the SheathPro sheath, made from .080 Boltaron, which is praised for its perfect fit, rattle-free carry, and versatility for various carry positions. The knife's lightweight design (6 ounces) and rugged construction make it a reliable EDC or tactical backup option.

This video provides a detailed review of the Spyderco Temperance 2 knife, highlighting its high-ticket grind and upgraded features compared to its predecessor. The reviewer praises the VG10 full flat ground blade, its cutting capabilities, and the overall fit and finish. Specifics like the drop point leaf blade, skeletonized hilt, and Micarta handle are discussed, along with its weight and balance. The reviewer notes limitations for heavy-duty chopping and discusses the slickness of the Micarta in dry conditions. The "Boltaron" sheath is deemed excellent, though a Tec-Lok attachment is preferred over the included G-clip. Pricing is addressed as a significant factor, positioning it as an upscale but potentially overpriced option for a utility camp knife, with numerous more affordable alternatives mentioned for comparison. The review concludes with a "Nutnfancy Likability Scale" score of 7 out of 10, considering the cost.
