My daughter bought me this knife in the green frn handle for father's day. As a person who carries daily I really been enjoying this budget knife. Mine was also super razor sharp out the box and very impressive.

I love mine. For the money, one of the best knives I own!!

Just got mine today from Amazon. Stellar knife for $29!

I've ordered mine from Amazon but I'm still waiting for it. I'm psyched for it at this crazy low price. Unpopular opinion...I prefer thumbstuds! Just as easy to reverse flick, much easier to thumb flick 😁

Yeah, me too...thumbstuds are very practical for deployment.

I typically like both, but I don’t like the aggressive chamfering on the standard Pyrite Alt, as it causes my finger to slip out without breaking the detent. Returned and got this. Another for my father-in-law

I wish had an un-coated blade option. Thank you for sharing!

Most definitely best budget knife of 2024. I just got mine in today and it is GOOOOD. It is ever so slightly different in ergos, yet still better than the Pyrite Alt, but the weight is just 🤌🤌🤌. Also love the thumbstud.

It is the best budget knife of 2024. Period! Amazon for $29.

Got one coming today on Amazon for $29, hopefully it’s alright.

NICE review. This version of the pyrite will sell like crazy. I will purchase one. Thanks for sharing.

Finally a good review on this knife. Every other video on KZread is just an EDC collector flicking the knife open and closed. Saying it’s nice. Thank you good man.

I like almost everything about it (specially the price: 30$) except the steel : I find both AR-RPM9 and its equivalent, 9Cr18MoV losing their edge faster than my 14c28n and CM154 bladed knives. The knife came with the standard factory sharpness I'm accustomed to getting (not sticky sharp...more of a polished factory edge type of sharpness...which is to say, not terribly sharp). You are correct about the greater toughness as per Larrin Thomas, this is a sprayform (NOT a powder metallurgy steel) steel. As he noted, edge retention is about the same as 9Cr18MoV, which has been my experience so far with these steels. Thanks for the review!

Well, yeah. You expect any sort of decent 14C28N or 154CM at $30? In this economy? Hell, that’d be crazy pre-pandemic

@@KeithKacanek Expect, no...I've actually gotten decent 14c28n for close to that price and even better. Kizer's 154cm is decent (certainly better than AR-RPM9) as is Trivisa's 14c28n (paid around 30 bucks) and I bought all of these post-pandemic (yes, I patiently wait for sales).

Got a couple of these on the way: one for me and one for my son.

Love mine! So smooth, pokey, and slicey.

Just got mine in today finally!

I love a great budget beater and this is one of the best I have owned . A very solid feeling knife with the full SS liners and a great blade shape. The fit and finish on mine was spot on and oh so sharp also!

I got one the day it released. What a knife for $30. I really love how easy it is to sharpen ar-rpm9.

Pyrites just keep getting better

the Pyrites never miss

Thank you so much for making this video! This knife seems like a great bargain. How would you compare the value of this knife to something like a civivi qubit or a vision fg?

Amazon won’t send the green one to my state…BUT they are willing to ship the blue version!

Those green ones can be quite dangerous

Better than a bugout IMO 😊.

Just bought one on Amazon for $29 😊

It's longer and has a bigger finger choil! It's like a Pyrite 2.0

What about Kizer Ppy, or Kizer Genie 154CM for near 35usd?

I bought one from Amazon and I’ve had it for a week. I love it better than my Bugouts. I agree with you, it’s a Grand Slam..!!

$30 no brainer !!!!

I W💙NT 💙NE!

10-15$ max. Thanks for the review.

@georgelin8498 good to know. My Hectare works fine. I would pay a bit more to have lightening holes in the Pyrite lite and get it down to sub- 2.5oz at least

Eh I get that it’s cheaper but I still consider the compression lock raccoon at $65 to be a better contender for best budget knife of 2024. I guess it depends where you draw the line for budget. Also I only own the compression lock raccoon and not this guy so maybe it would blow me away IRL
