Quiet Carry IQ - Small Details Review
Published: 3 years ago
Let's take a close, small-details look at the Quiet Carry IQ! Bryce is one of my absolute favorite designers, and this slick little knife is a great example of the kind of attention to small detail he puts into his knives! We'll look at the design and action of this knife, and compare it to its (slightly) bigger brothers, the Drift and Waypoint (even the Tactile Rockwall makes a brief appearance)!
This is definitely a long, detailed video, so feel free to skip to the sections you care about the most!
