Maybe update the reference to Steven Wright, or Art Garfunkel, or even Larry Fine. The pouch’s half-shaved head was a funny sight to see!
Vosteed is an ex Kizer engineering who’s doing big things himself in China. Yue has his own manufacturing facility over there and just has US folk representing his gear. He’s a very clever operator 😎

Yeah but he dumps all his experiments on buyers. so many forgettable releases
Vigorous Australian knife reviews > all other country’s knife reviews, vigorous or otherwise
Ah yes, the tell tale signs of a knife nut…opening Amazon packages with a knife even though it has the tab you can pull to open it without a knife. A true gentleman and a scholar.
Pete's artisanal pillows, stuffed with hand made sisal filling. Available soon
Watching Pete while I drink my coffee = perfect Sunday morning 😊
My Stallion series chef knife came paper towel cutting sharp, beautiful geometry, good blade shape, and some of the best fit and finish I have seen in a knife in that price range and higher. I am going to get the Nightshade at some point, but can't yet due to the finances. Keep up the good work Cedric! Your testing and thouroughness is much appreciated! Sincerely, JS
WHERE'S MY OUTRO, PETE? WHERE IS BASIL?!
Ordered this one the other day, this makes me look forward to it even more
I have a Raccoon in orange G10, with an axis lock. I bought it as a working knife for the garden/yard and it's been fine for that. It wasn't expensive so I'm not scared of using it for rough work. Orange so I don't lose it.
Still waiting in the boss level video for the wife..tormek
I gifted this same knife to my grandpa last week. Hes very happy with it too.
Just bought the knife myself so damn happy, it’s beautiful , excellent quality, for a decent price , yes here in Australia, everything’s expensive, bought the raccoon with blue aluminium scales and nitro v, sharpest knife out of a box full stop, out of my collection love it, I will stick with vosteed, I’m daz from Adelaide

The QSP Parrot is a drop point. The Penguin is QSP's wharncliffe folder.
Pretty soon with the Richard Simmons joke but it's cool.

gonna have to keep Alan like this as a tribute
And absolutely watch your channel for yoir opinion and everything with it. Great video Pete 👍
This has become my favorite knife (name notwithstanding). I have the cross bar lock version, and absolutely love the thing. Its my go to folding woods knife to pair with my fixed blade scandi.
Another fantastic Cedric & Ada Gear knife review 🎉 ! Thanks Pete, how did we get so lucky ? Including a fast forward rope cutting test ! My Saturday is complete !
Trying to find a top liner lock,l really like 14c28n, farm life is hard on knives thanks for sharing
ive got some two sun later models on my table that are amazing.....perfect fit and finish and action ...
More Bricky! Where has he been?
I have this model in green with a gold thumbstud as well as their axis lock version in green and black. I actually had to use their warranty on the button-liner lock version (which was more expensive in the US). The first model I got didnt lock up even with vigorous opening. An almost imperceptible burr on the mating surface of the liner lock prevented it from sliding over the blade enough. They were very good with warranty services and were interested in the problem. I ended up fixing the model by taking it apart and sanding the surfaces just a little and it's been great since. My axis lock version (which is slightly less fidgety than the button) also had fhe pocket clip get bent to heck like yours. Maybe they shouldn't do that big cut out. Overall they're great knives, I'd equate to Kizer which im a huge fan of. On the button version I did notice that if you're stabbing down with a reverse grip, your pinky can hit the button and the blade can close when not desired.
The Vosteed Raccoon- it’s fine.
I got Raccoon over a year ago. It scratched my itch for button lock flipper which is how i do a knife if i want nothing irritating extra or different. The best so far as been Benchmade 496 Vector, which was the last Benchmade i could get excited for. I wish to the heavens they'd put out straight spine Stretch 2 (non XL) in SPY27. THAT would be my go-to! No other folder is as right feeling and works so good. I don't wanna mess up the Ivory FRN one and the K390 one is too boss to carry willy nilly

I was reading through some of the comments and all I saw on your comment at a glance was, "I bought a raccoon and that scratched my itch." I thought, "dang, raccoons run around everywhere, I don't think you need to buy one. Nevertheless, you must be a nice person for buying that furry little critter 🦝." Then I thought, "ah, I'm a big dummy." I had no idea (obviously) a knife existed called the Raccoon. Sometimes I surprise myself with the things I think. Though a raccoon would be a cool pet. 😄 Take Care! Edit: I have no idea how I missed the name of the knife in the video. It's the title.😂

Yeah
Light battening😂 , love it atleast it didn’t snap , great vid Pete , don’t know how you feel about sheepsfoot blades but the Vosteed Hedgehog is mint 🦔
My calves are burning 😂
I own a Vosteed, it’s one of their Morgan Chef Knives it was $25 on amazon, G10 handle and laminated 9Cr14Mov blade. I would recommend it to anyone
Your particular model looks like it's the Top Liner Lock flavor. I have one of these, and it gets everything just right. Odd that you never commented on the lock mechanism though.
RE: “Rat 2 of the day” Would love to hear your thoughts on the CJRB Pyrite Lite. It’s shaping up to be what you described above.
I have found similar results from 14C28N and Nitro V in terms of rust resistance Strange though, as the “statistics” of 14C28N, having less carbon and more chromium then Nitro V on average, would have you believe that it would be MORE resistant to oxidation Perhaps Nitro V is a step purer then 14C28N? An odd thing, as 14C28N is already very pure for an Ingot steel But maybe that .1% of Vanadium is doing more work then expected of such a small amount of carbides As small amounts of Vanadium is used to refine the grains of Carbides in steel All in all, I’d go for Nitro V over 14C28N if given the choice
Did you see the newer Ryobi knife with the compression lock? Not sure what steel it uses, I think it's like $20 or so.
Pete,your angle cube,looks good but seems pretty expensive when I looked it up,can I ask if there is a reason for such a premium price?is it actually more precise than say a £30 one off Amazon etc?
You need the large quiet carry waypoint trust me the slimmer one

I second this. Nice slim carry, deep hollow grind, great ease of manipulation. It has become my only summer knife, knocking even the TRM Atom out of my pocket.
Sorry if it was mentioned... but was this test knife Vosteed's conventional button lock or a top liner lock?
Great result. Is that the best number for 14c28n you've had? I remember the Garberg only did 105.

He's stepped up his sharpening skill in the 7 years since that vid was done
Richard Simmons haha I love it
To me that sounds like the vosteed has a higher hrc. That would make it rust quicker and the civivi turned to bacon instead of snapping lol. I have the old kme, is the new one worth it?
Irony with the Richard Simmons timing, the universe was thinking about him today. Never heard anyone say anything bad about the man. Moar Basil!
ChronoTrigger music gets you a like.
What are your thoughts about Shooziz knives ?
RIP Richard Simmons.
Based on your test in music, I'm assuming you also grew up on PS1?
The bland design and how you describe it is why I don't particularly buy these knives. They're all the same thing and no better than what I already have. Not necessarily worse but not different enough for me to buy. I think that's why spyderco is my favorite company. There isn't any other company or designer that goes after the Glessers' style and I happen to really like it. Maybe out of respect or maybe because the cookie cutter stuff just sells better idk. I like my spydercos, clip points on traditionals, and a good drop point like a sebenza or the kabar wrench knife I just bought because it's cool and different and adds something to my very small fixed blade collection.
Vigorously....😊
hello, can you please test wootz? if you do not have any i can send you some well made
Well I just dont know Pete you never pounded those knives with a giant 4 foot long wooden mallot so how can the testing be vigorous at all ? lol
"Light" wood splitting...
I’m just here for the cheesy soundtrack. 😜
Excellent! A new printer to watch your wife SMASH! :)
Love you Pete and know you use to be tongue tied but why can't you say compost.
....? Spyderco all look same, nothing new(just dimensions) it is like Audi of knife world. Vosteed is not same knife from model to model at least... :D
I have way too many Vosteeds.... They're just so innovative 🥲
