Like a chicken bone??!! LoL Dude, your a beast! Great review, I was expecting just the mantis but then you started pulling out all these other toys. Nice collection.. I have big fingers, but yours are bigger so I think I'll go with the Emerson vs the 5.11. Thanks
are there other good karambits besides , mantis, ( the retired spyderco ) 511 and emerson ?
that's crazy cool looking, looks deadly, bet the edge on that thing in shavingly sweet.. awesome review, i'm jealous.
the mantis karambit is one of the coolest folders i have ever seen.awesome
I suggest you check out Mantis' website. They have some pretty cool knives over there…
Hellz. Where did you get that 5.11 Karambit and what did you pat for it?
@yahzine20 i know the feeling. i ordered a emerson clone rip from ebay. Hopefully it is decent
Do u need a licens to carry
This is one of my favorite videos that you have done. You've packed a lot of good info into this one. I want one of those Mantis karambits–Mantis makes excellent knives, I have the Mantis Folding Pry Bar, and the Mantis Chaos Folder, and they are top notch.
Great video.
i always want go to Honolulu been to Maui when i was 21 meet my gf and her family and turn find mine lol
Haha…. Who would be the usual suspects man?
Anyway… nice looking collection and 5* as usual JT.
I've actually been looking into the Journeyman model. I'll definitely keep it in mind.
Thanks mate. I need a job. 😛
Hellzzarmy, I stumbled on to your board breaking videos yesterday, and immediately subscribed when I saw your sweet collection and good attitude. You actually take time to read comments.
And today, I've been eyeing the 3 Mantis Karambits for their great price, and when I looked up the review, I found yours.
Would you suggest this knife to a beginner collector looking for a new everyday carry?
thanks for the advice JT!
i have that same journeyman, and i was wondering… do you carry that by the clip or just let it loose in the pocket? i found that carrying it loose in the pocket is a faster draw for me. I would reach in and push on the lockback and flick the blade out and would be ready to go with a regular grip. do you have any recommendations for drawing the blade into a reverse grip whether from resting in pocket or on the clip?
YOUR THE MAN!
arigatou gozaimassu! : )
thanks man!
OSSU!from japan here!
new at knife collecting and ALREADY with some doubts,i hope you can give some back up J.T.
i bought a 5.11 masters sv30 by interweb recently, but as soon as a got my knife i readed taiwan printed in the blade?
i thought the tarani was an usa made blade.
did i got an counterfeit?
or the masters and journeyman series are all made in taiwan?
I trained with Datu Kelly Worden in Tacoma Washington for 2 years and I was there when he "invented" the travel wrench. The title "datu" was granted him by the late Remy Presas, founder of the modern arnis system. I will say that having trained in the Philippines with the masters there, NO "foreigner" is a "datu" in the Philippines, Period. Either way Kelly's a great guy, all be it a bit of an ass.
amazing knives JT!!!! loved the video!!!
i just check out sum mantis knives the are all pretty sweet.
