That's Awesome 👌, love the wood scales, great looking knife 🔪 :))
If only it had a slicier blade, a ring lock, and maybe a rounder handle. Now that would be a knife.
😂
4:28 The screws near the lanyard hole look like a smiley face. 😀 It's adorable.
You should really just redo the cut if you have your phone going off in the background
Official! Metal Complex hates trees! ( Waggles Opinel No.12 Slimline in disapproval 😉 )
I just want you to know, MC, that you have single handedly made me go from being pretty meh about Hinderer, to having plans to shop for one early next year!
I'll be checking out a Hinderer soon..not a slipjoint..but I'll definitely be owning one in the near future.
Dude has covid
The more I look at this the more I kinda want it! Not gonna lie though I wish they had done a different, more modern steel with a vintage style finish but the O1 mixes things up a little and definately fits with the theme. Good video as always man!
It actually smells of walnut from the scales
Hinderer have said that disassembling this knife voids the warranty. I'm not ok with knives that cost so much that the company doesn't allow you to take care of yourself.
I have this knife. I love the color scheme on it. The green, bronze and brown appeal to me. I bought it just because of its beauty.
Half-stops aren't necessarily an indicator of quality. Rough Ryders and some Victorinox have them. It's just a matter of preference. If the tang end is squared off, you will feel the half stop as it clicks into place with the backspring. If it is rounded off, there will be no half stop it should feel smooth all the way through closing.
Baseball is better than life, it's fair!
Love me a hinderer, I just picked up a harpoon spanto in the stonewash dlc finish from the first run and am absolutely loving it!
It sort of looks "home made"
Where can I get these in the UK?
The Benchgrade makes its triumphant return!
yay, a hinderer that I can legally carry (with pre-prepared "reasonable excuse" )rather than only in the cabinet and I never knew they came in such a classic look ! the walnut and dark blade are superb looking, could the slippy be my first ?
yes, I think it could. great review M.C
That is quite literally one of the best Slip Joint I have ever seen
It's like Ferrari made a soap box car….or a wheelbarrow.
Great looking knife! Thanks MC.
Yeah, I don't like wood either, definitely prefer beaver
See like why not make this ambi….
"Half stop"
This one looks better than the g10 version it's still a knife I would buy
Jesus H Christ that is a beautiful knife!!!!!!!!!
You converted me MC I'm now a hinderer owner and i have a titanium scale coming for my new swedged spear eklipse the sickness is spreading lol
