I’ve been carrying my Tanto Magnacut Livewire for a few weeks now. Before I carried a spartan Ultratech, the microtech is heavier which leads to the thought its better but despite how light the Livewire is its very sturdy and overall for $190 on sale it is a gem!

Man, I miss my OTF knives! I had 3 microtechs and all 3 where stolen by someone i called a friend! Never let me down from an EDC 8n civilian life to having them with me on duty in the army! Amazing

I carry and use all my high-end knives That's what they were made for to be used. Just because they're more expensive I'm not going to baby them I have many knives over $500 that I carry almost daily

I'm happy with the cheapo lightning knives from bladeHQ. I remember they used to sell for like...$25 or something else super cheap. They're a little heavy but easy to spam open/close.

Most I spent for a otf was 80$ and it was solid and heavy not a benchmade but works good

I put a little bit of synthetic grease on the springs to stop the twang sound

Yes. Low end blades are notorious for it (my old AC-86 otf from the 1980s sounds like twangy guitar), but I've had very expensive ones do the same thing. A bit of grease on the spring, or even a thick oil like MPro-7, will usually stop things. I've also done the trick of cutting a thin rubber band and running the strip of rubber inside the mainspring itself.

@@sprinkleddonuts6094 Of course it's a coil; why would that mean it does nothing? By running a strip of rubber _inside_ the coil, it creates increased mass for the spring, stops it moving around laterally, and provides a soft buffer for the rings of the coil to move against. All those factors mitigate the twanginess vs just having a bare spring.

Decent knives for sure. It's a crime what Microtech and Benchmade charge.

Especially since I've had such "hit or miss" qc and awful customer service experiences with benchmade and microtech, yet, for me, whenever I've had a issue with a tacknives, they've been really good about fixing and or replacing.

I have several CobraTec models from high-end to their mid-line and like them too. In fact, I like my CobraTec Enforcer in M390 better than my MicroTech knives!

Are you also allowed to carry gravity knives in PA? I go to northeastern PA probably about six times a year either going to the Poconos or bushkill falls and I would love to carry some of my knives that I'm not allowed to carry here in NJ

Those look so easy to actuate ! I have the microtech combat troodon in merlot color with a bronze hellhound blade and hardware it’s beautiful but after opening and closing it a few times my thumb is dead I gotta check one of those out thanks for the video

@@navyvet05 my ultratech is slightly easier than the combat troodon have you tried the microtech exocet that one is very easy to actuate

if you can get a maxace neptune it's soooo good for like 128 shipped. which is why it took me a week to actually order one because their site was gettiing hammmmmmmered.

Sending love and positive energy to you my friend. Thank you I hope you had a good day!

I just got a Maxace Neptune recently. $108, Fires like a freight train!

Some of them on the website are pretty tacky, 20, 30 dollars

sadly illegal in my country reason: cause they are scary and misunderstood just like balisongs wich sucks for me

Lighning OTF for $28 beats some of the big brands in springyness and does not suck

The coupon code does not work... Just FYI.

I don't get all the microtech hate. Never had a bad microtech and they completely redesigned their knives inside and out and didn't even charge more. Tough times financially I guess.

Ticky tac tac knives for all your Ricky ticky tac tac needs.

Really cool knives !

Rebranded Chinese mid high quality 😂🎉😂❤❤❤
