Viewers pick 5 : Andrew H.
Published: 2 years ago
This is the first installment of a new series called Viewers Pick 5. Andrew Haubert is first up to tell me 5 knives from my collection he likes and why.
This is what Andrew had to say:
So for the 5 knives from me, my theme is going to be how your channel has influenced my knife collecting
1) TRM Atom - You introduced me to this brand, and I have become quite the TRM fan because of your Blade Show 2021 video.
2) Finch 1929 (or really any Finch) - BigRedEDC introduced me to the Holiday, but I had written the smaller models off as too small for me until you started talking about Finch. I gave the 1929 a shot because you approved of the ergos on their smaller knives, which has caused them to be another one of my favorite brands.
3) Jack Wolf Knives - Vampire Jack - Really, you can pick any of them. I am not much of a slip joint collector, but your friendship with Ben got me interested in his knives, and slip joints in general. His knives are top notch and he has taken production slip joints to a level I did not realize was possible.
4) Artisan - Arion - That's just such an awesome thin and slicey design. Again, I think it was your Blade Show 2021 interview with Russell that introduced me to the Arion, and I put that on my list of knives to get because of your video. Then you got that amazing looking fat carbon version at Blade Show 2022.
5) Tempest Knives - Mach 51 and Pinion - I still think the Mach 51 is a great looking design. I love the size and how you actually brought something unique and original to the knife world. I was very eager to back the Kick Starter and sad when it did not get funded. Fast forward to the Pinion, which is easily my favorite budget friendly knife in my collection. The ergos are great, its a very functional tool and the fidget factor is exceptional. It makes me excited for the Microburst and I look forward to what Tempest has for us in the future ... and it leaves me hoping for a shot at a Mach 51 v. 2
