So largely you are correct about the bugout (and to a lesser extent the deka) - it is always a battle between blade play and smooth action - but one thing that can really help that is polishing the washers. I use a grit progression of 6, 3 and 1 micron diamond pastes on a piece of rough cardboard (the more fibrous feeling stuff) or on a leather strop. 30 seconds on each side of each washer on 6 then 3 and so on. This will allow your knife to be run much tighter while still dropping when you pull back the bar. You can also polish the contact surfaces on the mini steel liners too. My bugout can - with the correct pivot tension - run with drop shut action and zero blade play, it is still somewhat finnicky to get it right but works much better than stock. Another thing that I am intending to try is buying some larger diameter washers, which can also improve side to side stability. You can get ones that are much similar to the size of the washers in the deka (same thickness just bigger) and that is supposed to help a lot which makes sense to me seeing as the deka has larger washers and is much easier to tune out the blade play while retaining good action than the bugout is

When I have a little extra money Ive been looking into getting a diamond paste but I just dont know a lot about that side of things just yet. Do you have a brand you prefer over others?

@wbwills2 3 месяца назад

Looks it up on “kneevs knives” (sp?)channel here on YT. He knows alot about this stuff & he has a favorite brand. I’ve seen it on Amazon. Just can’t remember what it’s called. Middle of the rd on price. Not too bad. He claims it’s a lot better than the stuff in the blocks. For everything. Comes in Little white bottles & its pink I think..

Great suggestion. Thanks

I'm finally breaking down and purchasing a Vosteed Raccoon because of this video. I'm sick of hearing about how good it is without knowing for myself.

@Knife_Life_EDC86 6 месяцев назад

The one I like the most so far is the carbon fiber one with the orange thumb studs! It reminds me of Halloween but they have a lot of variations. amzn.to/3xc9kKv here’s the link to few of them but they also have some on the Vosteed website

how did you end up liking it?

@Knife_Life_EDC86 2 месяца назад

Love them!

@jocemarine6247 15 дней назад

I own the Raccoon and I am very happy. But the best lock bar is the clutch lock from Kizer by far

@Knife_Life_EDC86 11 дней назад

Funny bc I just handle my drop bear the other day and remembered why I love the clutch lock so much

@jeremysantiago3793 Год назад

I couldn't agree with you more. Those top two are truly amazing. I want to add that the jimping on knives also depends of the designers. I have three knives that are designed by Azo at Kizer and the Drop bear is one of them. All have the same kind of jimping.

@Knife_Life_EDC86 Год назад

Ya know I only have the drop bear by Azo so now I’m gonna have to check out more because the drop bear was so well done. Thanks for letting me know.

Very very nice selection of knoves thank you

@Knife_Life_EDC86 Год назад

Thank you very much.

@rcjoe406 5 месяцев назад

Ur 💯 right about the pivot it has to be loose to be flipy on a axis type lock liner lock tou can get better..ive never heard a reviewer talk about this before good job 😊

@Knife_Life_EDC86 5 месяцев назад

It’s hard to get it in that perfect spot where it is a great mixture of fidgety and solid. Thanks

@Hungrybird474 Год назад

All good knives imo . One crossbar I really like a lot is a cmb predator . It’s kinda shamanish or like the hogue sig . So my magnacut hogue is a crap magnacut blade , so soft

@Knife_Life_EDC86 Год назад

I almost bought cmb predator a while back but didn’t. I still want to check one out.

@Hungrybird474 Год назад

@@Knife_Life_EDC86 of all the knives out there around that price it’s an easy favorite , even over the civivi s . Atlantic knife had them the cheapest but the stonewashed blade I think looks best with green micarta . It’s sweet because the heavier than usual blade swings closed and opens so good , kinda like a shaman .

@mikah3568 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for your video and good sélection of Knives, please can you give me the name of each knives in the order . I speek french and i don't understand and see every name.tkank you so much

@Knife_Life_EDC86 5 месяцев назад

If you are looking at the thumbnail for the video they are kizer drop bear, Kunwu pulsar, hogue k320 axg, benchmade bugout, and hogue deka.

@wbwills2 3 месяца назад

Hey. Liked & subscribed. Looking to get 1st access lock ,bar lock or whatever. Like the clip on the bugout. Short and stout. I have been on a bad run of loosing knives because of bad pocket clips. Cool knives. I want one I’m not going to loose immediately 1st & foremost. Tritium. That’s cool. eBay has all sizes & colors of tritium viles for sale. Could add them to anything. Didn’t think about knives. Thx

@Knife_Life_EDC86 3 месяца назад

Yea sounds like a rough streak with knives for ya. I do like like the smaller pocket clips normally if it fits the knife right. If the knife is bigger then it may cause problems when it comes to the clip but the Bugout is a good one overall in my opinion. And thanks for the like and subscribe.

I really liked the Drop Bear , and carried it quite a bit , until ... I got the Escort . I still prefer the Drop Bear's spear point blade shape , but I always wished it was .3" to .5" longer (Vosteed Racoon , anyone ?) , and the Escort' jimping gives me grip options that few knives can match . Great list . Waiting on my first Kunwu , the Padre .

@Knife_Life_EDC86 Год назад

I have been wanting to check out one of the escorts. I’ve heard they’re pretty good. I’m wanting to get a Kunwu padre but can’t find one anywhere. Where did you find yours at?

@dougwinchester4963 Год назад

@@Knife_Life_EDC86 on the secondary market . I got a "community standards" warning, when I tried to be specific. Idk why .

@Knife_Life_EDC86 Год назад

You got a community standards when you tried to specific on the location of where you got the knife from?
