Hope the knife companies have this guy on their payroll. He's a great sales Rep. I wanted to buy every knife he rolled out. He's puts in the time handling knives. He fidgets like a pro.. Great info on all the knives. Thank you.

Sharp by design makes the best production knives in the game IMO. I own 7 sharp by design knives. Lol. That's how much I love them though. 🔥🔥🔥. The best thumb stud action I've ever experienced would be the Kizer phoenix. You would think it's assisted opening its so good. 🔥🔥🔥

"petrified" fish lol thanks for sharing brother. Been itching to see a good "best of" list

Shaman in 15V, QC Drift Large (Vanax), Sandrin Monza, Stretch 2 in K390. Great video, thanks.

[jmatthiam]

Kizer Malibu? Very interesting 🧐
Love the video and your take on knives in general. I have picked up quite a few after watching your reviews so, thank you!

[ronaldbarnes]

Nice list, a lot of sweet knives Wayne! Definitely agree the Mini Tempest is probably my favorite knife. Thanks for the video!

[MitchBollig]

Very interesting and great choices Wayne. I did one of these from my collection a bit ago. I had the ZT0562 for combined light switch and push button flipper, EMPEDC Nymble for back (inline/downward) flipper, Mini Tempest for front flipper, WE Banter for thumb studs, PM3 for hole deployment, Pro-Tech Rockeye for OTS auto, Guardian Tactical Recon 035 for OTF. Thanks again! 👊 ✌️

Cool list! If you like the Kershaw Iridium, check out the Bel Aire. Its AMAZING! Also, neither the Microtech Ramlock nor the Winterbladeco lock are crossbar locks. Theyre mechanically different.

[csabamezo]

This is a great video, thanks. It re-kindled my affection for my almost forgotten Civivi Sokoke. It is now my favourite knife, just perfect in every way. So much so that I'm thinking about getting another one, with the black scales. :)

[PaulMunkoTV]

Honored to be on this list with the Cosmos! Thanks Wayne, always appreciate your input!

[Tintin-jvix]

Love the no nonsense fast paced approach, a lot of information packed into a minute roughly each.. great content ✌

[WestCoastEDC]

Every McNees I’ve ever handled had amazing action. Also my QC the nine is butter.

[staceyroberts]

Personally, action is a secondary concern for me. I routinely edc a Buck 110 and it’s two handed deliberate opening and bank vault lockup are all I need. A nice slip joint traditional pocket knife with a nice half stop compliments the carry nicely.

I’m really into the Kizer Mad Tanto right now. Awesome button lock flipper. Great video. Thanks 🤠🇺🇸

[Centurion]

So much info in this video for an edc novice like myself. Thank you!

[eriklundquist]

Yep, the action on that Raine is spot on! But… you missed the very underrated Kizer Original. I have like 9 variants, mostly because they have the best overall action of any knife I’ve ever handled. With one exception: the Rike Shadow: flipper tab thumb stud hydraulic drop shut porn. 😅

[cyphersuit]

This video is insane. So many cool knives. Totally enjoyed watching the whole thing through. My favorite fidgety knives right now are the Kizer Cormorant (full ti), Kizer Militaw and WE Vision R.

[shaggy_e]

My smoothest are my Manix 2 LW, native 5 lw (AWT), para3 lw (AWT), and my sage 5 lw (Parsons BW) and my Kaviso Penguin plus🤙🏻 my collection mostly consists of Spyderco's nowadays

[danielcox]

You left out the Demko shark lock and the WE/Civivi Super Lock knives. My favorite locking mechanism and oh so fidgety. BTW, I’m loving the Thornton. Great action, great blade and one of my favorite EDC knives. I’m hoping for a premium crossbar lock version.

[Hungrybird]

The Doberman is awesome . Seen ripps garage tech has some cool overlay stickers for the slippery civivi qubit . That’s the only reason I don’t grab it more often so because it’s slippery . He has some cool ones .
