The lack of M390 and titanium at this price point ruins it for me. JK ;-)

@OsamaBinDarrel 2 года назад

If that didn't do it the fact that it's not a frame lock flipper definitely makes it worthless.

@Cahwai 2 года назад

No mirror polished edge; must be overpriced. Adding to the banter

This comment will be great in a few years when people will be complaining about m390 like its Chinese d2

@JustKnifeThings 2 года назад

I agree on no brainer on this one. And if anyone prefers 440C to D2, you can get the original 440C base model for $21, which is just an excellent price for a great knife. I was surprised at how nice the action is. You can do so much worse in this price range that this is an easy recommendation for someone who wants a simple, good, very-budget knife.

@pooder53 2 года назад

Purely going off price, I bought a Penguine just to have something cheap I could use for practicing my sharpening skills/blade modifying. I had absolutely no expectations for that knife. I assumed that it would ultimately just end up as scrap metal. However once I opened the box and laid eyes on it for the first time, I was shocked at how nice it was. Everything from the micarta, the bladeshape and the action were incredible. It's the only time I have ever come across a knife that made me genuinely questioned how a knife company was able to produce something with this level of quality for such a low price. Simply amazing

@joeisabella6811 2 года назад

I like seeing a well designed knife produced with good materials and detailed finishes for affordable prices. Thanks for the review. Another knife I'm going to have to check out myself. Hope you had a great Christmas and were able to relax and enjoy with your loved ones. Take care and see you on the next video!

@Beefycheddermelt 2 года назад

I remember buying a upgraded version of a expensive knife to get the D2 "super" steel. Now it's on 20 to 30 dollar knives. Salad days.

@charlesperry1051 2 года назад

I have the QSP Penguin because of your review. It is a well made knife for the money. I generally steer clear of Chinese knives but can appreciate good value when I see it. I bought QSP Penguins for my two sons after my experience with the knife.

@gud2go50 Год назад

I just ordered this knife due to the price. I recently lost 2 of my nice EDC knives and I have no idea where I may have placed them, so I ordered this little knife for the interim. I am so happy you gave a good review on it. I purchased it quickly, so I did not have time or the money to mess around. Thanks. I feel a bit better now. Cheers!😊

@jimholliman2822 2 года назад

Now that's a knife I can easily afford & like at the same time. Good review that was frank about the very few cons.

I have the denim micarta, purchased for like $22 new in my country. I would like to get the titanium penguin next. I was looking for the penguin in denim but ended up with the parrot. I love both when trying them out in the store.

@JayF3 Год назад

Great knife for the money, red micarta the way to go and I replaced the pocket clip with a civivi deep clip making it better. Very comfortable in the hand especially if you like the rat 2.

@MrKinghuman 2 года назад

I've never owned a 200 dollar knife or a custom, I'm mostly in the production side of purchasing, and from the 100 or so knives I've owned, this is my all time favorite. I bought it as a work knife, but for $28 the fit feel and finish of this knife it became my non work EDC, it's my steak, fruit and food knife. It replaced my sicilian pocket knives and opinels and victorinox I usually carry when walking around. My all time favorite. Alot of you guys look for things that most of us don't look for bc you all own expensive and large collections, but for the average joe looking for work and cheese knives, you can't go wrong with this.

@metal_complex 2 года назад

All of us came from a time in our lives where we were buying less expensive knives. There's only one fact here: if you choose to climb the ladder, you will find things you didn't know you cared about. If you don't, you'll never have to worry about it. It's the way of the road.

@MrKinghuman 2 года назад

@@metal_complex maybe. I refuse to spend 350 for a knife that stays in its packaging. I went down the road with pool cues, I owned $3500 dollar cues, $1500 cues, $2000 dollar cues, but I played with a $300 cue. Couldn't imagine my custom Titleist Tascarella conversion gettong knicked, I would get the sweats. Lol.

@metal_complex 2 года назад

I remember saying that too. 10 years ago 😉

@metal_complex 2 года назад

I remember thinking I'd never even touch a $300 knife outside of the packaging. Now I regularly use a $1500 Rockstead. The ladder is mysterious

@MrKinghuman 2 года назад

@@metal_complex you're a brave man. I'm getting sweaty palms thinking of you using a $1500 knife. But ultimately you're right, they're tools meant to be used. I'm just cheap

Is there room for this, in a niche dominated by the Zancudo and Rat 2? Or is the cost-saving what this is all about?

@Cid_1 2 года назад

I really wish they just made the thumb studs flat, and attached with a screw so it's possible to put on after market ones. I really dislike thumb studs with those nubs on top that looks like a glassbreaker on a cheap knife (as they can be sharp). Perhaps I just got really unlucky with my Penguin. But when studs is the only opening mechanism, I wish they put more effort into the studs.

can you tell me which one is better, the QSP Penguin or QSP Parrot. im struggling to choose between this two because i like both

The penguin has a thicker blade. You can use it for work.

@jimcarlson6157 Год назад

depends whether you're swimming or flying. I have 4 penguins and 1 parrot. I like them all but I would recommend the penguin. there are more steel and scale options with that model.

@jeffdahmoose776_6 2 года назад

It should be known that one of the civivi deep carry clips is compatible with this knife, if anyone wants I can link which one it is

@GBall_Vision 2 года назад

Now this is what I call an equivalent to my SOG otfs. The SOG is the only one I could scale this one building with until the QSP PARROT, then the Oknife Parrot, then I realized I could fly with only those 2 knives due to the steel equivalency of the 2, times (x) the knife name =. I'll be trying to fly later today. Disclaimer: I don't own any sog otfs, QSP PARROT, and the olight oknife Parrot came with my oknife olight flashlight. I did not try to fly but I do scale buildings with only the best of knives

@nitrorc4life1 10 месяцев назад

AlL budget brands, even the upper tier stuff have terrible edges , I reprofile every single one. Inconsistent and steep edge angles are the major issues on them, you can get a sharp edge at 30° per side and if it is thick behind edge it gets worse.....buuut no thanks and I do not mind reprofiling.
