Nutnfancy reviews the Mcusta Katana MC-4, a compact and beautifully crafted knife inspired by the Japanese katana. The review highlights its forged T6 aluminum handles with anodized grooves, a 3.25-inch VG-10 tanto blade with a damascus-like finish, and a smooth nylon bearing system. While praising its aesthetic appeal, precision, and surprising lockup for its weight, Nutnfancy notes the delicate tip might limit self-defense use and the lanyard hole is color-coordinated. The clip is also lauded for its design and pivot screw access. The reviewer finds excellent value for the price, suggesting it could be a collectible but is functional with careful use, giving it a 10/10 likability rating.
This video review by Nutnfancy focuses on the Spyderco Stretch, a knife described as a 'home run EDC and light tactical blade achievement.' The reviewer highlights its lightweight design (3.6 oz), excellent jimping, large deployment hole, well-executed nested liners, comfortable FRN and peel ply carbon fiber handles, useful full flat ground blade shape, strong and reversible clip, rapid deployment, tight lockup, good balance, lanyard hole, sharp factory edge, and excellent steel choices (ZDP-189 and VG-10 as of 2010). The blue ZDP-189 version is noted as particularly appealing. The video suggests the Stretch is a wise consideration for a duty blade lineup, giving it a perfect 10 out of 10 on the Nutnfancy Likability Scale.
This video review focuses on the Spyderco Barong, a lightweight tactical or EDC knife with a 4-inch VG-10 stainless steel leaf-shaped blade. The reviewer highlights its speed, ergonomic handle, and suitability for utility and defensive roles. Comparisons are made to the Benchmade Dejavoo Model 740, with the Barong praised for its execution and unique heritage. The review notes the knife's Scotchbrite finish, sage G10 handle scales, and reversible tip-up pocket clip. Downsides mentioned include the lack of blade spine jimping, limited in-handle retention, a potentially weak tip, and a higher price point. Despite these, the reviewer finds the Spyderco Barong to be a highly advisable backup or deployment blade, a fun collector's item, and rates it a 9 out of 10 on the Nutnfancy Likeability Scale.
