Love these short videos where you show how the lock mechanism works. More please!

I have been very much enjoying your breakdowns of locking mechanisms, lately. Thanks for making them. I earn my pay by engineering, albeit in a different field. Nevertheless, I enjoy seeing clever solutions well-executed.

That stare is sharper and deadlier than anything you handle
😳🤯😵‍💫😵☠️

I’ve carried and used Axis cross bar lock knives since 2001 and the lock has worked flawlessly on all of them !
Good system !
This model looks like a great knife and good value for that price point !

All I need to know about knives I can learn from Melissa the Queen of Knives!

[rodneykelly]

This was excellent. Very informative, very affordable and the size looks ideal.

[Adam-of-the-earth]

Thanks for including the weight - would love to see a light edc pocket knife with a glass breaker!

I may be right-handed but ever since my second degree burns last year I do have a lot of appreciation for left-handed accessibility I was pretty much exclusively left-handed for about the first week

[mariobarcelon]

So many good features. Really is a Delta!

😋🤙🏾 love it! I still love my little pocket Excalibur tho. Had it for over 15yrs thus far.

The more I've used and sharpened 14c28n, the more I like it. It really does take a sticky sharp edge and I've never had it chip out, even running into staples in heavy cardboard.

[MonAcleJ]

That was such neat video, Very informative and enjoyable. I also enjoy taking things apart to see how they work.

[thomaszaccone]

I kinda like sheath knives myself. Then carving and whittling knives. But these are awesome.

[flareoutdoors]

That spring that goes “boing”. That’s for that needed that

[Richard-yq]
