This video is a review of the Al Mar Nomad folder knife by Nutnfancy. The reviewer highlights its high style and functional quality for EDC or light tactical use. Key features discussed include the VG10 full flat ground blade, fast deployment, tight lockup, Kirk Rexroat design with a perfect thumb ramp and jimping, and its lightweight nature (3.4 oz).

The reviewer highlights the S30V steel, full flat grind, perfect jimping, robust cage ball lock, aggressive liner milling, and comfortable ergonomics, contributing to its lightweight design and excellent balance. It's presented as a versatile knife suitable for EDC, tactical use, and collecting. Despite a slightly stiff lock disengagement, its overall quality, cutting performance, and durability are lauded, making it a highly valuable limited edition knife.

This video reviews the Cold Steel Mini Lawman folding knife, highlighting several significant design flaws. The reviewer criticizes the lockup's wiggle, the knife's chunkiness despite its light weight due to the Triad-Lock, the impractical low pocket clip placement causing a 1-inch protrusion, the abrasive G10 handle material shredding pockets, the lack of jimping, and the blade arriving dull. While acknowledging the ergonomic G10 handles, fast deployment, adequate steel, and utility blade shape, the reviewer concludes that the downsides outweigh the positives, suggesting several alternative EDC blades that offer better design and carry. The reviewer gives the knife a 5 out of 10 on their likeability scale.

This video features a review of the Cold Steel Recon 1 knife by Nutnfancy. The reviewer expresses a preference for a lighter knife, noting the Recon 1's 6.6 oz weight due to its undrilled steel liners. Despite this, the knife is praised for its 4-inch plain-edged clip blade, fast deployment, solid Ultra-Lock, AUS8A steel, deep hollow grind, sharp edge, G10 handles, and reversible clip. Potential improvements mentioned include weight reduction, smoother finishing under the pocket clip, a higher-mounted clip, and purposeful jimping. The reviewer categorizes the knife primarily as a defensive tool. The Nutnfancy Likability Scale rating is 6.5 out of 10.

This video is a review of the Spyderco Tenacious folding knife by YouTube reviewer Nutnfancy. The reviewer highlights the knife's exceptional value for its price, praising its solid build, G10 handles, skeletonized liners, strong liner lock, functional jimping, and fast deployment thanks to phosphor bronze bushings. The 8Cr13MoV blade is noted for its good all-around performance, similar to AUS8 steel. The only significant drawback identified is a weak detent leading to insufficient in-handle retention. Despite initial reservations about its weight, the reviewer concludes it's an outstanding, high-value EDC and tactical blade.

This video review focuses on the Zero Tolerance 200 (ZT 200) folding knife, comparing its performance and value to the more expensive ZT 300 series. The reviewer highlights the ZT 200's heavy-duty tactical folder design, liner lock construction, and pillar build, noting it feels lighter despite weighing 8 oz. Key features discussed include the 154CM steel blade (contrasted with the ZT 300's S30V), vault-like lockup, manual deployment options (thumbstud/flipper), G10 handles, a versatile pocket clip, and a blade shape that's noted as difficult to sharpen due to its recurve. At approximately $130, it's presented as a strong value proposition, offering significant performance for less than half the cost of a ZT 300 or 302. The reviewer expresses a preference for the ZT 200's narrower blade width but acknowledges the substantial weight as a potential drawback. Ultimately, it's recommended as a cool and valuable addition to a tactical knife collection.
