This video reviews the Diskin designed Volcan Coronado pocket knife, highlighting its exceptional value at an $18 price point. The reviewer praises its "outsized utility," a perfect 1:1 blade-to-handle ratio, quick opening, and lightweight design. The AUS8 steel with a hollow ground shearing blade is also noted as a significant feature. The video also briefly showcases other highly recommended EDC blades, including models from Kershaw, Spyderco, SOG, and Cold Steel, indicating a broader discussion of EDC gear. The reviewer assigns a perfect 5 out of 5 on the Nutnfancy Likability Scale.
This video review by Nutnfancy focuses on the updated Kershaw 1745 ENER-G II knife, highlighting improvements over its predecessor. The reviewer discusses the knife's reduced weight (4.2 ounces) achieved through thinner G10 scales and milled liners. Key features praised include the hollow-ground drop-point blade made from 14C28N Sandvik steel, sharp edge, fast flipper deployment mechanism, and the tactical potential. While the clip is deemed "ridiculous," its swappability is noted. The review emphasizes the excellent value for a US-produced knife with this steel and recommends it as it appears to be discontinued. The reviewer assigns a high likability score of 8.5 out of 10.
This video reviews the Camillus 7.25" G10 Model 18668, a drop-point knife featuring VG10 steel, a hollow grind, and a lightweight pillar construction weighing only 3.0 oz. The reviewer highlights its razor-sharp edge, good thumbstud, black TiNi coating, and reasonable price point around $45, making it a capable EDC blade with classic looks. While acknowledging the clip's initial attachment issue and replacement by customer service, and the lack of skeletonizing, the reviewer praises the excellent ergos and milled G10 handles. Competitive options are briefly discussed, and the knife is considered a strong contender for the "BEST Knives Under $40 Playlist." The reviewer's Likability Scale score is 8 out of 10, specifically noting its lightweight, pillar build, and awesome steel as key strengths.
This video reviews the Kershaw Salvo (formerly Barrage) knife, focusing on its suitability for Everyday Carry (EDC). The reviewer highlights its thin profile for easy carrying, a strong framelock design which is preferred by some over liner locks, and the blade's geometry. The blade is 3.5 inches long with a sharp tip, hollow grind, and adequate belly. The 14C28N steel is praised for its sharpness, toughness, edge retention, and ease of sharpening, making it the recommended choice over the Damascus variant for EDC. The handle features rubber inserts for grip and a smooth clip for quick pocket insertion and extraction. While not assisted opening, it deploys quickly with adjustment. The reviewer notes the lack of significant jimping, making it less ideal as a tactical blade, but commends its overall combination of a secure lock, fast deployment, aesthetics, and sharp blade for daily use. The reviewer gives it a Likability Scale rating of 8.5 out of 10.
