Technically also Reate... but they're almost exclusively collabs so 🤷

@johnlimpkin 7 месяцев назад

Do a budget version of ones you actually keep. Awesome collection, thank you

@mikepersia5362 7 месяцев назад

I’m a steel nerd so Spyderco will most likely remain my favorite brand. I have seven PM2’s all in different blade steels. Those Herman knives are tasty!!

@littlejesus9212 7 месяцев назад

Nice! Spyderco is my favorite no doubt. No benchmade?

@fakestreamedia5309 6 месяцев назад

I agree I was very surprised not to see any bench made at all in the collection… I’d love to hear it metal complex do a video on why this is

@franksalem8580 7 месяцев назад

20 Microtechs!! You have my deepest sympathy.

@jamesburton7195 7 месяцев назад

I just received my fluted aluminum ram-lok stitch from EKnives because of you, letting me know it existed. I am so happy it’s absurd. Watching your content over the last few years has been a blast, keep on making great content, I’ll keep watching.

@ericmack001 7 месяцев назад

Awesome video! Awesome collection! It will be very interesting to see what knives you add to your collection next year. Spyderco is the brand that I own the most of. I have over 20 Spyderco knives. But Shirogorov is my favorite brand. I only have 4 Shiro’s . Great video, thank you

@anthonyberardi8904 7 месяцев назад

👏🏼Wow man I’m drooling over here. I have a small collection of Benchmade’s and some others that I have far less of.. Kershaw, fox, SOG, spyderco, SAK’s. I feel like I’ve been collecting butter knives my whole life after watching this. lol. What an awesome collection. If I ever win the powerball I’m in trouble.

@enigma.b9 7 месяцев назад

Microtech just always keep me hooked. I've moved a lot in the past couple years but still hold the majority of my collection being microtechs. They are just cool and fun 😂 That cracked ice borka collab is epic. I've kept my CT star grind cracked ice tanto near close by for years now and I'll never sell it.

@NPR7771 7 месяцев назад

@lorenfuchek105 7 месяцев назад

You need an Amphibian in that Microtech collection. The Amphibian was one of the best knives of 2023 imo. I like it over the MSI and the Stitch and I absolutely love both of those.

@Mntoyaz 7 месяцев назад

Spyderco is definitely my go to manufacture! However, I do have Benchmade and Civivi in my collection!

@atishch 7 месяцев назад

Oh yeah! I was dead sure in your most owned brand! Love that company's products.

@stephenyeung6341 7 месяцев назад

My Microtech collection seems to be growing faster than any other brand as well. They are different enough so it doesn’t seem like a duplicate, though you’ve got quite a few Stitches in your collection. I notice Benchmade didn’t even make the top 8. Benchmade was the first brand I started collecting years back, but I don’t think I’ve bought one in over 15 years. I think they are over priced for what they are offering, especially with blade steels and blade thickness.

@jlock9085 7 месяцев назад

You should do a video about the most underrated knife steels. Everyone thinks they need 20cv, S90v, etc, but they forget about steels like AEBL and CPM154, which I prefer, actually.

@Dtom32 7 месяцев назад

The Stitch is one of my favorite knives and your custom is basically exactly what I want. So nice, I almost want to offer to trade my full custom Chaves gen2 Redencion#111. There definitely on the same value level if your a Chaves guy. Both very rare and essentially impossible to get, the Chaves gen2 design is done never to be made again. Thats why alot of the customs are so expensive if your newer to this world and just cant fathom how a folder can be priced at $4500 or something.I just cant not go off on some tangent lol, that obviously wasn't me explaining customs to you lmao.

@richardsalinetrojr1957 7 месяцев назад

My man has more money tied up in Herman knives alone than I have in my entire collection so far. Lmfao. I was almost certain we'd see a lineup of CKF knives as well TBH. I was told I have something special showing up from Bladezilla (my Christmas gift from my daughter) but I'm not being told what is. Going by my search history for the past 3 months I can only assume its a Shiro, but I have no idea. Daughter always buys me something gorgeous and expensive as shit but I'm not ever allowed to use anything she buys me. Sucks but I can respect her wishes. Lol. Happy New Year to you and the family MC. Hoping to see the channel grow by another 200k or more in this next year brother.

@iizbadazz111 7 месяцев назад

@kerrykitterman4602 7 месяцев назад

Very Interesting 😮 I'm surprised that autos came in number ONE 1⃣. GREAT. COLLECTION 😊 THANKS

@rhinosaur. 7 месяцев назад

I knew it was Microtech. On top of an existing solid collection of OTFs you've been on a Microtech folder spree this year lol. My modest collection would go Benchmade, Spyderco, then a three-way tie of ZT, Protech and Hinderer.

@tulpenhiney 7 месяцев назад

Spyderco for sure, then protech. But the reate made ones make up for most of my collection too.

@willb7713 7 месяцев назад

Awesome. I'm also surprised you don't have more Spydercos.

@natewilder1868 7 месяцев назад

I have bought 2 Microtech knives in 2023 and if I’m being honest there are several that I still want to get… and I’m not sure why but they have me for sure.

@michaelcarr2619 7 месяцев назад

MC…I also favor Microtech knives…even though I have tons of other brands and many of each. Microtech is my favorite brand as a whole. Good taste sir!

@sprinkleddonuts6094 7 месяцев назад

The most i own is Spyderco. 1 more will be added hopefully very soon CruCarta Manix2 pre ordered since Thanksgiving. Theres a few more i would like to get but will be tough because they are exclusives. Was able to get a StNicks Manix2 LW before Christmas. Waiting for TKJ to drop some more as well. I want the whole line of Hedgehog exclusives. But yea very cool video

@marwanfx 7 месяцев назад

Love your video content always, very informative and creative, maybe you do one video for why we didn't see among those nice collection knives a serrated blade knife? they are not practical enough? or thier is another reason? thanks again. Marwan, From Dubai

@Thatsthesecret 6 месяцев назад

Really cool video. 👍👍

@piratetobin6968 7 месяцев назад

I haven't watched the video yet, but I'm guessing #1 is microtech bc i'm pretty sure you have like 12 versions of the stitch. Before the stitch I would guess Hinderer. You're the reason I got an XM-18. I've picked up so many knives since then, but none have dethroned it from my primary edc slot.

@user-Bladewalker 7 месяцев назад

Wow what a collection

@nmnate 7 месяцев назад

I probably have 8 or 9 victorinox cadets in various colors with the aluminum scales. 6 Spyderco folders and then 4 or 5 ESEE fixed blades. Kinda random, but a lot of 2.5" or less knives due to restrictions at work. Oh, and a microtech feather, now. I have eyed quite a few other microtech fixed blades (especially borka collabs) but haven't bought them yet.

@Jstarr918 7 месяцев назад

@bzebarth 7 месяцев назад

It's Benchmade by far for me although I haven't bought any lately because their prices are out of control. I have 6 fixed blades and probably 25 folders. Number 2 is probably Spyderco at 6 but I'm not really a fan. I only use 2 of those and only carry 1.

@rwj6213 7 месяцев назад

Can't believe that you don't have a manix 2!😢

@mfc5808 7 месяцев назад

Hey MC, do you not have your Maxace Medusa anymore? If you still do, that’d bring Maxace up to 6; but if you want to keep Maxace tied with protech at 5, I’ll buy that Medusa 😎.

@SwedishPete 7 месяцев назад

Great slap! For me it's Spyderco but my second place surprised me: Ruike, haha I'm a cheap bastard 😅

@blondhairblackstrat 7 месяцев назад

I also am a "budget-minded collector"! Cold Steel at 9, Gerber at 6, Schrade at 5, and on down----

@ryansmock2717 7 месяцев назад

In terms of quantity, Spyderco easily. I have about 30+ Spydercos but I don't really buy them anymore. I also have every Kunwu model, every Arcane design except the Antimatter, and about 10+ or so Hoback production knives. Followed closely by WE (about 10), Hinderer (5), SBD Production knives (5) and Vero (4). Other than that I kinda just have 1 or 2 of many premium brands (Like Herman, Shiro, Koenig, Holt, Grimsmo, PMP, CKF, etc.....)

@paulbosley6448 7 месяцев назад

You don't have my favorite microtech the Dirac. It's really nice for edc. Not too small not too big...wonder if they are going to update the Diracs? That would be awesome. Already pretty easy to operate compared to other Microtechs....

@BrendanCS 7 месяцев назад

What happened to the glowey xm18?

@JCpNK 7 месяцев назад

Before I watch I’ll guess… Either Hinderer or Microtech 🤔

@DShiflet01 7 месяцев назад

I own...none of those brands other than Spyderco. My biggest collection is...probably Spyderco, but could be Cold Steel. Those are the top 2 anyway. After that, Condor definitely gets 3rd. 4th is probably Kershaw then at 5th I'm pretty sure it's Ontario.

@xmetal280 7 месяцев назад

I've been into knives for about 35 years, but only have about a dozen knives. All of them are pretty darn nice and I use them all, but I am so picky that huge portions of the market don't interest me at all. Which is good, I spend enough even in my pickiness. 😆

@richcampbell-ri1mo 7 месяцев назад

Spyderco, WE knives, Hinderer, Microtech, Benchmade.

@michaelmastervick6067 7 месяцев назад

@cintage 7 месяцев назад

@craigrj232323 7 месяцев назад

If I could make a suggestion, I'd ask to do a this list in dollars spent on a brand instead of the number of knives you own in that brand. While I own more benchmade knives than any other, I have spent far more on other brands that I have less of. We don't need to know the actual numbers, but I think if you went that route, it would change the viewpoint of which brands you've invested the most into. For me, you might have guessed that chaves is where I put most of my money and you would be correct.

@austinbridge 7 месяцев назад

I know this would take some time out of your day, but would you be able to go through your knife collection and get a total purchase price? I'm not hugely interested in current market value. I'm sure you could at least ballpark what you paid for each knife and get a "quick" total. Love you, MC.

@frankl2634 7 месяцев назад

Wow, that’s a lot of Microtechs. I tried one in a store once and it broke after 3 deployments. All set.

@415jokr 7 месяцев назад

Just picked up my first benchmade the mini adamas, is it normal for the axis lock to be gritty?

@fransalot7967 7 месяцев назад

Yes it will get smooth as you use it

@P.W.R. 7 месяцев назад

Crossbar locks can be gritty and sticky for awhile. This is normal and will break in after use. If it remains gritty/rough/sticky, then it could be a lemon and you need to get it repaired or replaced. Benchmade has their Axis lock nailed down so well that you shouldn't need to worry about it. Carry and enjoy!

@415jokr 7 месяцев назад

Thanks appreciate it! Will be playing with it all day lol
