Really like the new intro . Nice knife , the evolution of a classic pattern . It would be interesting to see more of this concept . Great review .

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

It's a nice modern take. I don't always like the modern designs, but this appeals to me. Thanks for your comment Michael.

@jamesomalley4556 Год назад

I miss the old intro with the tool box , I like the Speer point a little more.

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Oh boy. Miss it huh? Ok. Thanks, James.

@fibitabit8423 Год назад

Very nice. I just bought my first modern slipjoint. A benchmade proper

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Very cool Fib, I hope you enjoy it.

@UncommonEDC Год назад

I've been digging these and all the different colors available but agree you should be able to choose the one that comes with it. Appreciate you sharing this one!

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Yep, it's a silly game they wanna play. Thanks, Uncommon.

@diverdave2179 Год назад

You're right, it is hard to decide, between both scale colors and blade shapes. The white one wins by a sliiight margin. And the 1/3rd stop is a unique feature. Thanks TK!

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Tough choices. The blades are great. I'll take both! Thanks, DD

@MB_EDC Год назад

Great video. Love the RB5. I like the new intro - and I liked the old one too. Really like the photos at the end too. Thanks TK.

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Glad you enjoyed it, MB. Have a great day.

@RandysWSG Год назад

Great new intro! These seem like great knives from what I have seen from Slippy, and now you. A very excellent review. Great they sent you the other as well! I like how easy the scale are to change. Thank you for sharing!

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Thank you kindly Randy. I'm not always keen on modern slipjoints, but these hit the mark for me.

@jeroenvoss6231 Год назад

Not the most budget option, but really good quality all around. I like both bladestyles, maybe favour the droppoint a bit. Thank you John.

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

No, not the most affordable thing ever. Good solid knife though with some great features and a classic shape.

@Jarrych83 Год назад

The clip reminds me a lot of what Buck does well with clip points. And that drop/spear looks like a really nice blade shape, especially for people liking the modernized traditional side of things.

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

It's a nice compromise between the old and new. A fresh take.

@robhead22 Год назад

Great short intro. Visually interesting with a great sound track! Perfect length. Great review. Thank you!

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching, Rob.

@gvanderweele2334 Год назад

Both nice! The SPEAR point is very good looking blade option. Thank you for the inside look!

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Thanks very much, GV. They did an excellent job on the design. A nice modern slippy.

@radar468 Год назад

I think I like the spear point a bit more on this knife, nice!

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

It's a tough choice for me, Radar. Thanks!

Brilliant thanks mine black handle

@ThriftyKaniffy 3 месяца назад

These are great modern style Barlows. The interchangeable covers is a fun option.

@rsv-code7004 Год назад

I'm with you, I don't care for a clip on my slip joints.

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Nope , not needed.

@paddyspotatopeelers2154 Год назад

Great review,I think I need one of these in my collection.Thanks paddy

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Thanks a bunch big fella. I thought you were gonna pass out in the woods, good thing for Jud. Be well, mate.

@mikecurtis2585 Год назад

I like that design! The nested liners are great!!!!

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Solid build. great action and blades. No complaints, but for the color options from go. Thanks, Mike.

@Ray.J Год назад

Great review, short and sweet, and the knife has a lot going for it. Would be a great choice for a modern slip joint EDC knife.

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

I think so too, Ray. A good modern take on a great traditional design.

@oferbechor1579 Год назад

THANK YOU 🌲

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Thanks, Ofer. Have a great day.

@jelkel25 Год назад

Ooh, that Clip point is sweet! I find them easier for detailed wood carving work. Next one on "the list" has been ordered, a Karesuendo (probably spelt wrong) Lars Falt. No, if there's a lanyard hole I wouldn't usually bother with pocket clips (I'd use the pocket clip to tie the lanyard to) but occasionally they can bulk up the handle width to a reasonable thickness so arthritic hand aren't an issue.

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Yep, I get the need for more bulk for an easier grip. I've been managing my arthritis better in the last few months. Thanks, JK.

@checkmatekingtwothisiswhit7685 Год назад

A modern traditional, looks cool. Very concise review, as always. Thanks TK

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

They are really well done. A good option for a modern traditional knife. Thanks, Check.

@davidkurle5418 Год назад

Cool piece! And by the way, your new intro is awesome. 👍Cheers, buddy!

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Thanks very much, David. Glad you like it.

@SeanT_1967 Год назад

Hey TK, Like the look of these and like both blade shapes. Cool that you can interchange the scales but agree it would be nice to choose what colour they come with. Great review and thanks for sharing brother 😎👍🏻

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Thanks so much, Sean. The color and blade options make it fun to give you that one of a kind selection for yourself. Just wish they didn't make you pay extra for the more vibrant options.

@bigdrj2223 Год назад

Nice review! I favor the drop point a bit. I know they’re G10 scales but look a little “plastic”, maybe not to the real feel. (?) 1/3 stop is nice.

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Yea the feel is pretty nice. They feel quality. Thanks, Doc.

@DanielEPiza 10 месяцев назад

Nice traditional knife at a good price. I will get one and brown scales!

@ThriftyKaniffy 10 месяцев назад

Real Steel did a really nice job with these. Thanks, Daniel.

@SlipjointSawyer Год назад

Enjoyed the new intro! And that clip blade is really growing on me 👀 great review John

Thanks, Slippy. Where did it grow on you? Weird.

Hey TK Good looking knives, great video thanks for sharing

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Thanks very much for having a look,Terry. A nice choice if you like a modern slippy.

@terrancecoard388 Год назад

It is a nice knife and I would immediately remove the clip and find a slip for it. This is one that I would keep an eye on for a discount in a few months. I do love Barlows.

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Perhaps they will have a sale on them at some point. Thanks, Terrance.

@rasputinscastle Год назад

Looks like a nice knife but I can't get into those integrated bolsters on the scales. Good video as always 👍

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

The modern take is gonna have some compromise to traditional ways. So yep, not for everyone. Thanks, Michael. Good to meet you, Sunday.

@rasputinscastle Год назад

@ThriftyKaniffy definitely my pleasure, and thank you for the welcome.

@deanP. Год назад

Interesting knife. Thanks for showing it.

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Thanks for having a look, Dean. Pretty cool for a modern style Barlow.

@jessej22 Год назад

If you're testing a new intro, my vote is for the old one. It gets me more amped up for the review hehe 🤠👍

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Thanks, Jesse. Always like to get a feel for how they are received. Take care.

@John..18 Год назад

Real Steel make great knives imho,, 👍🔪

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

I certainly like this model, John. Have a great day.

@Zen_Ali_123 Год назад

I'm a fan of the clip point, but I gotta go spear point this time around.

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Yea I had a hard time deciding, Zen. Both are solid choices.

@JoseGonzalez-yx6vm Год назад

A little pricey, but Real steel has very good modern design and their g10 is very nice, thanks for sharing, TK.

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

The feel of the G10 is excellent. Just wish they'd let you pick from all the colors right from go. Thanks, Jose.

@kenwilliams2219 Год назад

Very nice! I think the spear point for the win. Both blades are very nice though. Question: are you "Bronco Guru"?

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

I like both blades, it is a touch choice between the two. Never heard of Bronco Guru. Thanks, Ken.

I like the new intro!

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

Thanks, RSV. I appreciate the feedback.

@MrBarnea Год назад

Hi, thanks for the review. I got one in drop point and it's real nice. Igot it because it has a pocket clip so it won't be loose in the pocket. I do wish I could change the clip to a shorter one. Do you know if there's a way to get one?

@ThriftyKaniffy Год назад

No, I don't know of any other clip that would work with it. Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel.
