My favorite reason is how classy and nostalgic slipjoints are I love the modern traditional ones and the old school traditionals! They are all nice.

@Sanguivore 13 дней назад

Really great points! I’m thinking about picking up a slipjoint as a backup myself for two of the main reasons you mentioned: it won’t freak people out, and it reminds me of my granddad. Thanks for the video, bud!

@0scartheCat 27 дней назад

I'm sure you'd like the Otter Messer Anchor knife, I was buying my wife a neck chain at a Jewelers in UK, she wanted the sales tag cut off it, so I took out my Anchor knife and in a second cut the tag off , the salesman was not scared but impressed. Our UK knife laws are very strict too... but as a slip joint less than 3 inches it is legal.

@danpennella 10 месяцев назад

See now this is good idea, so many people just despise slip joints for some reason without giving thought as to why. People should stop and think that with all the hubbub about the “minimalist” style in the knife community, slip joints are the OG! They can also be crazy cool or oversized or unique or plain. Every knife has it’s own appeal and these are no different. Thanks for sharing your reasons!

@doodysdaggers 10 месяцев назад

Yes exactly! Disliking them for no good reason is dumb

@roberthaines1227 3 месяца назад

Just recently started to add in some slip joints to my collection. I got a Lionsteel Bestman for Christmas a couple years ago and I really like the modern traditional esthetic. For my birthday this year I just ordered a Boker Coffin slip joint in MagnaCut and a Reel Steel Gslip in VG10! And natural micarta. I hope to add more in the near future. Maybe some more traditional slip joints.

I edc my modern knife and I also carry my traditional trapper knife just food. Like when I have cut a tough steak at restaurant or when I’m at road side fruit stand and I have cut orange or peach. Like you say… it doesn’t feel threatening to other people and it slows you down to simpler times.

@doodysdaggers 6 дней назад

That’s perfect!

@byronkennedy7912 10 месяцев назад

I’m a fan of “cool old shit” which includes slipjoints! There’s something very tactile about using one of them.

👍🏼👍🏼I started carrying a slipjoint in my goat tool tool pouch. Inherited from grandpa. It’s an old Hammer Brand. I think from around 1945-1955 ish. Looks like a pickle. :) I love having one of my grandpas knives on me.

Most videos I see on RU-vid about the new slip joint craze. Tend to be more on the expensive side as far as Rosecraft, Jack Wolf knives excetra are there any budget brands out there worth considering really appreciate your time and effort on the channel keep up the good work 👍🏼

@BrianK_70 10 месяцев назад

Rough Rider makes a ton of under $20 slipjoints. Obviously expensive varies by person, but I don't think of RoseCraft as expensive, rather exceptional high value for $44-55, very good quality and gorgeous.

Man I tried like hell to grab one of those yellow rose barlows but wasn't quick enough. I usually switch between a 23, 39, and 71 plus a few Case depending on the day. Definitely not a primary carry but a great secondary and almost like a worry stone in your hand folded up when you have some nice bone covers! Great video man!

@thallescastellani317 4 месяца назад

I was so fixated into tactical stuff that I didn't carry any folder. Then I got into tactical folders...then slipjoints. Now, there are days that I only carry a titanium spike and a slipjoint. Slipjoints are beautiful and do their job better than other folders. If we do put aesthetics above all when choosing shoes and clothing, can't we do the same with knives? Aethetics and tradition are fundamental parts of life and of a healthy psyche. I think slipjoints are: TOOLS, FASHION AND HERITAGE. But...they're not harmless also. The spanish navaja was originally a friction folder and it's fighting techniques can be applied to slipjoints.

@pocketknives_and_harmonicas 8 месяцев назад

Heya Doody! I’m trying to find a video on how to install an easy open notch onto a slipjoint. Your favourite GEC has one that I believe that you installed…. is there a video demonstrating how you did this? I have a Boker Cattle Knife that is uncomfortable to open, but I don’t want to eff it up🤪 love to check it out if it exists….

@doodysdaggers 8 месяцев назад

I don’t have a video of me doing it. But it’s pretty easy, you’ll need a Dremel or some other rotary tool. And a carbide burr. Something like this: amzn.to/46xpYQN Then you just grind away until it looks good. After you get it roughed in, use sandpaper and hand file to get it nice and smooth

@jelkel25 8 месяцев назад

I grew up with slipjoints/traditionals and modern knives were fairly rare. I find most (not all) moderns a little samey and just don't get the same charge buying most moderns as i do traditionals. Entirely irrational but that's how it is.

@doodysdaggers 8 месяцев назад

I get it!

@peterpuleo2904 3 месяца назад

Actually, a slip joint has more daily utility than a "star wars" tactical folder.
