Thanks

I like small knives but when it comes to a maker like demko I'd rather have the larger version. Great video 👍

Agreed

All of my favorite knives that I carry hover around a 3" blade, plus or minus a smidge. I'm not a fan of that Demko though, and not because of the overall size but because of the ratios. To me, it looks like they put the wrong blade in the handle, the blade visually "feels" about half as long as the grip. I like knives that appear the opposite, like my Shirogorov Hation, where it seems like they magically put in a blade longer than the handle. 😆

I would be interested to know if the Skiffs make a real difference or not?? I might need to get a knife and some Skiffs to match and do a video about it. So many people talk about those bearings…I just wonder is the a truly noticeable difference or not 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

so I currently have 4 knives with skiffs...3 I did myself which didn't necessarily need them but are def better with them. The 4th knife I bought used and was incredibly smooth. I didn't know it had skiffs till I took it apart and then it made sense as to why it was so smooth(which was the urbad edc F5.5).@@DirkWerning I feel like knives with those open ended brass cage bearings will always benefit from skiffs. The white delrin bearings only marginally...

@@paullmight42 good info. Thanks. I might need to do some experimenting (with some inexpensive knives hopefully lolol)

I like small knives, but this may be too small, personally. I like the fact that the scales are taller or wider, depending on how you look at it. Seems like it would fill out the hand a lot better than a Delica. I was a fan of their original pocket clip, not sure if i like the ultra slimness of this one. Also, if you're interested, I just received a Begleiter 2 button lock for XMas, if you wanna do a review. Its the blackwash blade and gray micarta version. Can we see more close ups of those "delicate fingers"? 😂

Man I’m going crazy. This aluminum model with deep carry clip is amazing man! But WHY so tiny mini small man. Come on Demko. I would definitely love and buy this exact model but in the same size as an ad20.5. Come on man stop making baby knives.
