This video reviews the CRKT Remedy folding knife, highlighting its elegant design, sharpness, thin profile for pocket carry, fast deployment, and effective jimping. The reviewer expresses a newfound appreciation for stainless steel framelocks due to this model. The CRKT Vizzle is briefly mentioned as a similar but discontinued model. The Remedy is recommended as a good option for a beater blade, heavy-use EDC, or as a gift. The video also showcases and compares it to other competitive options like the Land and Honey Badger knives, providing affiliate links for all mentioned products and a sharpening system.

This video review by Nutnfancy focuses on the CRKT Ripple folding knife, highlighting its exceptionally lightweight design and innovative features. The review compares two versions: an aluminum model (2.2 oz) and a stainless steel (TiNi coated) model (2.9 oz). Both are praised for their slim profiles, making them ideal for almost invisible carry. The IKBS ball bearing system ensures smooth action and solid lockup, with perfect blade centering. The reviewer discusses the liner lock on the aluminum and framelock on the steel version, deeming both adequate for moderate utility tasks. Blade steels are Acuto Plus (high-end) and 8Cr14Mov (value), with Acuto Plus noted for its excellent edge holding. The video also covers handle ergonomics, jimping, guard formation, and construction details like the zytel backspacer and lightening holes. Despite some minor critiques regarding the proud and non-repositionable pocket clips, the CRKT Ripple is highly recommended as an EDC Hall of Famer, with both models receiving a 9.5/10 on the Nutnfancy Likability Scale.

This video reviews the Kershaw Scamp 2710, a budget-friendly EDC folding knife praised for its value, speed, and cutting performance. The reviewer highlights the hollow-ground 8Cr13Mov drop-point blade, grey nitride coating, ambidextrous thumbstuds, and dual-material handle (420 SS with G10 overlay). While noting its heft (4.4 oz) for an EDC knife due to the framelock design, the reviewer forgives it considering the blade size, deployment speed, lockup, and overall value. The knife is placed in the TNP Hall of Fame for its high-value performance, resembling more expensive folders.

This video review focuses on the Kershaw OD-1 and OD-2 knives, highlighting their "Addictive Speed" deployment mechanism designed by Lee Williams. The reviewer details the materials, blade steel (Sandvik 14C28N for OD-1, 8Cr13Mov for OD-2), blade shapes, and locking mechanisms (framelock with stabilizer for OD-1, liner lock for OD-2). Performance in cutting and stabbing tests is discussed, along with potential rust issues on the OD-1 and lock strength observations. Comparisons are made to the Kershaw Leek series. Ergos, clip design, and value are also covered, with both knives receiving high likability scores from the reviewer for their fast deployment and fun factor.

This video reviews the CRKT Drifter, an affordable Everyday Carry (EDC) knife priced at under $20. The reviewer highlights its value, offering two handle options (stainless steel and G10) and a 2.9-inch 8Cr14Mov blade. While acknowledging a disappointing out-of-box edge requiring sharpening, the Drifter is praised for its fast deployment, tight lockup, good looks, fit and finish, pillar construction, jimping, and strong pocket clip. Downsides include its weight compared to competitors and a non-reversible, tip-down pocket clip. Despite these minor issues, the knife is considered an impressive performer for its price point, earning a Nutnfancy Likeability Scale rating of 7 out of 10.

This video discusses the Buck Mayo Hilo and Cutback knives, highlighting them as discontinued but high-value EDC (Everyday Carry) options. Despite their slightly heavy stainless steel framelock construction, the reviewer emphasizes their quality and affordability for the price. The description also includes a correction, clarifying that the Buck Mayo Northshore, not the Buck TNT, is the successor to these models.
