I got my Bourbon Moth Blade. My initial impressions of the Bourbon Blade right out of the Box. I flipped it open for the first time and TING. I had to do it again-TING!! What the heck!!! OK that is the sound of being open into a solid base. That is absolutely impressive-very impressive! Blade is sharp but it will be a few days before I can test it. Why? My wood shop (aka. garage) is an oven!! Now, something else. The lock for the opening mechanism is stiff/tight and little difficult to use. I have no doubt it loosens up after a little use. THE BOURBON BLADE IS SOLID AS HELL. I now need a little bourbon to christen the blade. GOOD JOB!!! Note: The locking mechanism is working great after opening/closing it a number of times. Also, I added a little Metabo Pnuematic tool oil and just made it even smoother than it was.

@fatguyguns8708 17 дней назад

I’m not even a wood worker, but I just bought one, for three major reasons. 1) The blade shape is really cool, I enjoy cleaver style blades, but this takes it to another level. 2) Rare to see a flipper style opening with a cross bar lock, really dig that. 3) That sound!!! That “ting” when it opens! Really unique. I doubt Metal Complex or other knife reviewers will ever get their hands of them, but it would be cool to see their take on this.

@senthemink 16 дней назад

Putting maxamet, a non-stainless steel up against the 14c28n was a bit misleading. A better comparison would've been the s30v you were contemplating using in the blade, but nonetheless 14c28n is definitely the right choice for this kind of knife

@garyfairbrother5532 Месяц назад

I ordered mine and can’t wit to see how, among many other uses, it works with my Kumiko jigs. It will be nice to have a good, robust chisel with a thinner “knife grip”

@vbikcl Месяц назад

I appreciate that the first thing you addressed was the locking mechanism. My first thought when I heard "folding chisel knife" is "that's a horribly unsafe idea", but it seems you guys also had the same concern and not only addressed it through product design but understood that you had to explain it users as well. That said, I'd still be real hesitant to whack this thing with a hammer while gripping it. I'd be curious to see a slow-mo video of what that lock bar is doing when the knife is being whacked with a hammer.

@katzmosestools Месяц назад

Yeah it was our number one concern. Had to be safe. That’s a great idea on the video. We have beat the ever loving crap out of them and they are so strong.

@kennethnielsen3864 23 дня назад

@samuelkenney9080 Месяц назад

I would love to see more videos on the design process and why you made the decisions you made. Beautiful knife and hopefully fills a void I’m sure many shop workers/trades men have in their edc. Would love to know more about the steel you chose. I’ve always thought a 3v chisel knife would be amazing in the shop. But I typically value edge retention and toughness over corrosion resistance. Maybe a premium version with MagnaCut? Anyway, all that to say this knife is beautiful and a very exciting product to see. Can’t wait to get my hands on one and throw it through the test!

@katzmosestools Месяц назад

I do about 6 minutes on steel choice and why this is such a perfect t choice for this. Edge retention equals brittle and chipping under high stress and toughness means slightly software.

@samuelkenney9080 Месяц назад

I think it’s a great steel choice. I was just saying I think it would be interesting content to see some videos going more in depth into the r&d behind the decisions made. As you say it’s the first EDC pocket chisel and I’d be curious to see the curtain pulled back a bit on that process. I don’t disagree with any of the decisions, I bought one as soon as I finished the video. It’s an awesome knife, love seeing the creators I follow coming out with products of their own

@Jake-bt3fc Месяц назад

@@katzmosestools "Edge retention equals brittle and chipping under high stress and toughness means slightly software." This is not necessarily true. Toughness and edge retention are not mutually exclusive. High edge retention does not inherently mean low toughness. The entire reason everybody is so hyped about magnacut is that they took s30v and made it way tougher without reducing edge retention at all.

@bryangravely Месяц назад

First off, I want to make sure and point out, I'm not bashing your product, I've already placed my pre-order. As a collector and bit of a knife nerd, I am curious why you went with ball bearings over phosphorous bronze washers in the pivot. The ball bearings do give knives a glassy smooth action, but they're prone to gumming up when used in dirty, dusty environments, like a workshop. The phosphorous bronze washers still give a buttery smooth action that not only continues to function well when dirty but are also easier to clean. Also, curious who the OEM manufacturer is, is Mikkel making them, or did you go with an OEM like Kizer or QSP for production?

@vie_baobab Месяц назад

I wonder if it's possible to have bushings made to fit the same space so the bearings can be replaced with bushings. I also prefer bushings since my knives get USED and I really don't like having to frequently disassemble the knives to clean the bearings.

@bloodgain Месяц назад

Bit of a knife steel and collector nerd myself. Great job, especially for a first knife design! Mora has made a great carbon steel chisel knife for as long as I've known, and I would consider that EDC, especially for a tradesman. Smith & Wesson makes a folding chisel knife, but they use terrible steel. That said, it's great to see an actual user-designed folding chisel knife design that takes it seriously! You guys should definitely try to get this into retail stores, too, maybe under Mikkel Willumsen's brand name, so you can capture a bit of the knife nerd market. What I'd like to see in a "version 2": - Manual locking pin option. Although a crossbar _should_ be strong enough, for a folding design that is intended to be struck on the end, a static locking pin would be the only fail-safe approach I can think of. - Brass washers instead of bearings. Bearings are great for smoothness and feel, but they are also less resilient to getting dirty. Since this is a tool for working wood, self-lubricating brass washers would be smooth enough for fidgeting, but stand up better to sawdust, grit, and pocket lint. Much easier to clean out, too, without disassembly. - Other steel and scale choices. This one is just obvious for a second release. More personalization options, modern powder metallurgy steels that outperform the Sandvik traditional formula in certain metrics, maybe a salt water resistant version for using on a boat, etc. Definitely good for capturing more of the knife collector/user market. (Though I agree with your choices for first run to hit both your performance and price goals.)

@rpnp2 Месяц назад

Another knife collector nerd here, and i second most of you said. First thing that popped into my head was Graham Knives the designer of the CRK one. And they could something similar to Demko did with a pin in one of his cold steel knives that essentially locks the knife in place because that axis lock copy is strong but its going to fail on people that hammer on the end. And they would need to up the steel quality, because knife nerds are not going to be a fan of that sandvik steel and want something more premium or atleast stronger, I am surprised they just didn't go straight 3V over sandvik tbh.

@MrNitrojj Месяц назад

Why is the back of the handle and back of the knife not in a straight line? It would look better and the force would be going straighter when chiseling with a hammer.

@katzmosestools Месяц назад

The hammer strike is in the upper back of the knife which ensures it is inline with the blade. This was on purpose.

@andrewsmith3121 Месяц назад

I know these are protypes, so a question I have is about the final version and the blade angle to the handle, and also to the butt end of the strike plate. Is the final version going to be parallel, or still retain the slight angle that is evident in these prototypes? I ask because I want to understand how much the front edge of the chisel is going to wander to the side if the blade has that angle included? It will be a learning process to adapt to the induced side to side wander compared to a traditional chisel. How have you and Jason seen this working when using your prototypes? Excellent concept, excellent research, and excellent product!! May just have to order a Left and a Right for my shop use 😊

@evrac1 29 дней назад

@rpnp2 Месяц назад

Just read through that bladehq article and im surprised they rated 14c28n so high on the toughness, even over 3v. But they also rated H1 as number one even over 420HC which doesn't make sense. IF H1 was so tough, all the ball bearings in the world would be made out of H1. And they put LC200n tougher than 52100. BTW cool knife, glad your entering the knife market!

@katzmosestools Месяц назад

For bearing applications you don’t ever need to sharpen them. Toughness and ease of sharpening is the opposite of hard so bearings are going to be built out of something more towards the middle of the spectrum to avoid unnecessary wear from being spun millions of times. You should read the whole article if you haven’t. It’s really fascinating.

@greenie277 Месяц назад

The above is a great answer, but I'll just add this.... I think you have a misunderstanding of what toughness actually means in this context. A material that is tough is less likely to break or fracture. This typically means that it deforms first. Gold is malleable, deforms easily, and is much tougher than any knife steel but it doesn't perform particularly well as a knife or a bearing for that matter. An incredibly hard knife will chip at the edge or break when dropped. An incredibly tough knife is prone to rolling its edge. Knife steels occupy the usable space on the spectrum between these extremes and where an individual alloy falls on this scale impacts edge retention and ease of sharpening/abrasion.

Are you worried about edge retention with a softer steel like that? I feel like I'd have expected D2 or another harder steel. Most bench chisels I see tend to lean towards using an extremely hard steel. Love the design though!

@katzmosestools Месяц назад

We wanted toughness which is the opposite of edge retention. I go into deep detail in the second half.m as to why we chose it.

Preordered. This "knife?" has been on my YT startup page for a couple days and I was so confused by it I never clicked through to see what it was me not being a knife collector and all. Now it's 1am on a Tuesday. I'm drunk and autisticly trying to figure out who's shop I have a better chance of getting a first run from. "If train A has 550k cars and train B has 1.11m cars how is the first run of knives split between the two trains and will which one has a better chance of stopping by my place?"

That's super cool, and as a knife obsessed woodworked I love the idea, but I can't help but wonder what the longevity of it will be. You can't really sharpen more than a 1/4 inch off the tip without it becoming a little dangerous when folded because of the exposed tip along the spine. If you are regularly using it to chisel stuff and want to keep that portion sharp then in a few years the knife becomes a little uncarryable.

I had no idea you were such a knife snob. lol. I also suffer from your knife fetish. I have a similar affliction. My new everyday carry is an Ace Biblio with brass scales and M390. I do have many of the blades you talked about. I can certainly get on board with this knife but I would like to see a tougher steel. I will be on board as soon as you make one with something like M4 or even the new Magna Steel. Magna may actually excel with this type of design. Looking forward to seeing where this will all go.

@greenie277 Месяц назад

Wait... so you guys can carry 2 handed knives? I didn't realize you guys were still toting around Kriegsmessers xD I'm interested in what locking mechanisms you're restricted to. Do you only have slip joints and frame locks, or does the restriction have to do with the inclusion of a flipper tab?

@halsti99 Месяц назад

@@greenie277 2 handed in that context means you need to open it with 2 hands. so anything you can open with just one is immediatly illegal to carry. so, thumb knob, flip tab, otf, butterfly all of it is out. Leatherman actually makes a Wave version that doesnt have the hole cutout in the main blade, just so you can carry it here. other than that, you have a length restriction that i dont remember from the top of my head. think its somewhere around 9-12 cm, so ruffly 4-5 inches for folding knives. bit longer for fixed ones.

@greenie277 Месяц назад

@@halsti99 Wow, maybe there are a lot of options made specifically for your market, but that seems pretty restrictive.

@FriedPi-mc5yt Месяц назад

@@katzmosestools Weird, I never had a triad lock come unlocked when I was gripping the knife. But yeah, since the patent has run out on the crossbar lock, it’s probably the best option for a tool like this. I sure wouldn’t trust any liner lock or frame lock to hold up for any length of time. Out of all the lock designs out there to choose from, I think y’all went with the top option.

@rpnp2 Месяц назад

@@FriedPi-mc5yt yeah he should of just said its patented.. dude found the .0001% of the population that had a triad lock come unlocked on them. #1 gripe i heard about the triad locks were they were hard to open one handed, but that's about it.

@FriedPi-mc5yt Месяц назад

@@rpnp2 They might be a little hard to open when new. But once they are broken in, they are really smooth for a mid lock. I mean, they will never be as buttery smooth as a well made liner lock or a bunch of other lock types. But they can be pretty smooth. I usually take mine apart, clean all the oil off and buff all the engagement points to a mirror finish. Then re-oil them and put them back together with blue loctite on every screw. I’ve done enough of them to know what to look for and where on the parts to put effort. On some of them I’ve even reduced the spring pressure on the lock bar because they were hell to unlock with one hand. I’ve carried the XL Voyager knives for years on lots of construction jobs and never had one close on me by accident. I had several from other knife companies that did. One Benchmade in particular. It was a liner lock. I was making a twisting cut and the meat of my index finger got onto the liner lock just enough to disengage it. Fortunately it didn’t cut me bad, but it got my attention as to how a badly designed liner lock could ruin your day. I also had a liner lock fail on me and it bent more easily than I thought was possible. I don’t buy liner locks anymore for the most part. The ones I still have are strictly for opening boxes and envelopes. Edit: I almost forgot. The Cold Steel AD 10 really surprised me. The one I got was the most butter smooth triad lock I ever pulled out of a box. Lots of other people have made the same comment. I’m not sure what voodoo was worked at the factory for that one. But it was really amazing right out of the box. If you get the urge for a new knife, that’s definitely one you should have in your collection. It’s a 3.5” blade of S35VN with G10 handles and I believe it has aluminum liners. It’s a chunk too. If would make a nice fist load for a bar fight. 😂
