Dear Mr. Andersen and the rest of you at the knife center I really appreciate you getting back to me with a suggestion for my carving knife. And it’s funny I just ordered a Victoria Knox knife with a nail clipper. Also I went to Walmart and got a Kershaw hot fire it’s a nightmare especially for them. But I’m definitely gonna look into your suggestions once again thank you for responding back to me.

Question: What's the cheapest and what's the most expensive knife in KnifeCenter?

@ryanharnell9268 3 года назад

I totally get the conundrum of which modern classic with a pocket clip could replace the magic of my late 80's Buck 110 and 112. After being ticked that Buck hadn't figured that path out.. Ended up Brass Flytanium scaling an M4 Custom blackout - Mini Crooked River. Mission accomplished. Wish it could have been a buck though. Thanks for another great episode DCA! Now I get why those old slip joints had so many blade shapes in one. Meanwhile I'm packing different knives with different profiles for tasks. =)

@wmkid11 3 года назад

I love the Leek, I have been using one for my work carry for over 10yrs and it is a workhorse.

@TonberryV 3 года назад

My Dude, perhaps direct them towards WE Knife for modern slip joints as well. There are also a lot of smaller french makers who make some sinfully beautiful slip joint knives. Stefan Schmalhaus does review a ton of knives that might appeal to that aesthetic.

My favorite Delica is the Manix 2. 🤣 MKM is trying hard to make me want a slipjoint.

@Ryan_the_tinz 3 года назад

I have that MKM Fara and it's so gorgeous. But I just really need one hand opening for EDC. It's also too heavy and bulky in the sheath for an inside suit pocket. It's still my date knife though.

@clintonlewis1261 3 года назад

@davidpalmer9014 3 года назад

Thanks, Dave! I ended up ordering the Lionsteel 8210 ST, because I wanted something very small. Although now I have my eye on a Fox Livri.

Blimey, k390 delica might be just the perfect knife for me

@skycorrigan6511 3 года назад

I am very impressed with K390. I found a Spyderco Ladybug with it.

@tonycanniffe2360 3 года назад

It’s a great steel. I’ve had an Urban in K390 for a few years. Feels more like Cruwear than a 10V class steel; easy to strop back and not too hard to sharpen. Good to see it rolled out to more models (finally!).

@artemkanarchist 3 года назад

Tony Canniffe well, that sounds really great!

@PoetFisherman 3 года назад

@briandunn5861 9 месяцев назад

@wizardofahhhs759 2 месяца назад

Bearing knives should have a flush-out hole to fit a straw that comes with every can of WD-40, RemOil or whatever to spray it out clean.

@leepinnguin9682 3 года назад

I'd like to see you grab each knife like you are going to use it. I'm a rather large person 6'3" 250lbs and I have trouble with the grips on many knives.

@Snaggums 3 года назад

What are some versatile multi tool options for working on a motorcycle and/or leather working? I’ve got a Leatherman Crunch, which is awesome for locking onto bolts, but doesn’t have much versatility otherwise. The serrated blade isn’t super useful, and my other bulkier wrenches/screwdrivers are inevitably way better to carry around. It’s also bad for one-handed operation. I’ve also noticed some multi tools come with awls, which would be cool for my leatherworking. Any suggestions? Thanks!

@keats27 3 года назад

MR. ANDERSEN....best chance to be another Buck 110 - mini griptilian, delica....loves me my VG10...VG10 delica is $84...fancy scales? super super steel? EDC, I'll keep my base delica. If I'm going up over $100, I'm going mini griptilian or SpyOpera.

@arig5988 3 года назад

What’s up David? My only question maybe you could review for next time would be, what’s the fastest way to sharpen a harder steel like s30v (in a hurry, i.e. a work environment) but without damaging the blade or getting the angle wrong? Are field sharpeners the way to go? I’m always afraid I’ll do more harm than good to the original edge grind.

@Ryan_the_tinz 3 года назад

The Protech Malibu is another manual button lock knife. Hard to find in stock though. I have the BT Fighter. It's a great knife for the price range. DCA, how many knives do you personally own and what are your top 3?

@mdunawaym 2 года назад

Thank you for you answer on the best whittling knives. My girlfriend is totally blind, and I decided to start whittling things for her as gifts. I love the Boker, but it is no longer available. The first one seems like it would be difficult to sharpen and maintain. Do you have any other current models to recommend? I'm currently using the Case Tony Bose sow belly.

@The4cp 3 года назад

Best Delica is the Emerson Wave with a Wise Men signat ring.

@terrylew6565 3 года назад

My Hogue X1 detent is so stiff that it's impossible to deploy it using your push button technique. Either that or my slightly smaller than average hands are not strong enough . . .

@djadis187 3 года назад

Unchanged classic (s) 50 years from now....Griptilian and Endura/Delica

@knifecenter 3 года назад

I'd say the Spydercos aren't eligible because they keep improving the designs. My Gen 3 delica is very different from the newer Gen 4 and I bet they keep doing that, which in the end is great for us consumers!

@TheProfessordank 3 года назад

RAT one/two is a knife that could go unchanged for 50 years.

@teddysmith457 3 года назад

Taylor knife company has some old school folders

@darksi226 3 года назад

Great pick with the leak. Love that knife. Funny enough, the delica would have been a great pick too. Question: I’ve seen fellow knifeheads use a strip in very different ways. Some slide it slowly and meticulously, as if it is a sharpening stone. Others strop at 90 mph and are less concerned with the exact angle. With all things equal (strop and compound) what method do you recommend?

@knifecenter 3 года назад

Moderate speed, light pressure -DCA

@The4cp 3 года назад

I'd say Delica Paramilitary 2 from Spyderco and the 940 from Benchmade even though like the Leak I personally don't like those 2. In 50 years all 4 will still be around.

@carbonitegamorrean8368 3 года назад

Best Whittling Knife ""OLD TIMER SPLINTER CARVING KNIFE"" and super cheap too. I have one and it works unbelievably, I see zero dif in the Flex cut and the tools on mine, as in probably same manufacture (I dont know)

@noah_9886 3 года назад

Hey Mr. Andersen, do you think there’d be a way to mod the new benchmade Osborn switchblade to be assisted opening instead? California frowns on the button openers but assisted seems to be ok. I’m interested in purchasing if you think a mod is remotely possible. I know you normally don’t comment on such topics but if you haves physical one with you, I wouldn’t mind your perspective Thanks!

@knifecenter 3 года назад

Highly doubtful. It would take an entirely different mechanism on the inside.

@charlescollier7217 3 года назад

Mr. Andersen, I confess to being guilty of giving you the Anglicized Swedish version of the name. My apologies. As always, the video was thoroughly enjoyable. I'm not sure how I missed it earlier. In any event, I thought that the question about an unchanged classic 50 years from now was answered by the next question - Which Delica is best?

@knifecenter 3 года назад

No way on the Delica. The 4th Gen current knife looks very different from the first gen knife. The name will undoubtedly still be around, but it'll certainly not be "unchanged" (which is a good thing for us customers!) Cheers my friend -DCA

I have question that's not about knifes itself but its knife related. When is time to change the sharpening stones? How long can they last? :)

When they are no longer flat, they should either be discarded or flattened with a lapping stone.

Every Case knife I've ever bought had a terrible fit and finish. Turned out to be complete garbage as well. I don't see them being in business long if your going to sell nothing but expensive junk. Come on case get with it. They charge almost as much as GEC does. But GEC is high quality. I would never buy a case knife again. Especially that for 20 - 25 more I can get a GEC.
