Microtech Halo 3

[tronjon23]

this knife is 750 haha and its only a single action

[whitesands]

is there a safety feature so i does not go off in ur pocket

[Dirtymurder]

weak

[cubixthe]

@Dirtymurder I pitty the fool...

[Dirtymurder]

@cubixthe Thats not a knife, This is a knife (Smith and Wesson Urban Survival Knife) 

[cubixthe]

@Dirtymurder Yup, the chinese sure know how to make a blade... :D Don't let the S&W logo fool You. BTW it's more or less a copy of Italian Extrema Ratio designs.

[Gundamreflex121121]

@Dirtymurder lmao that is a knife ment for killing some one or quickly disabling a leg or arm, not a multi purpose survival knife which is heavy, unwieldy not to mention harder to conceal.

[jeffdobbelf]

whats the average price for one of these?

[drkilcourse]

@jeffdobbelf Microtech knifes range from 150-500

[skatetocreate7]

how do u get these?

[IMFDB]

I think this knife has been very popular on the tv show "24" I seen it used by Jack Bauer in seasons 1,4 and 5. Like all shows though they never show how this knife retracted on camera.

[1lovesoni]

@IMFDB they showed this knife being retracted inthe movie reindeer games

[thagigolo]

Where did you get the kydex neck holster?

[cubixthe]

@thagigolo Came with the knife when I bought it - it's an aftermarket sheath though...

[ADROKMCA]

Do these have a safety? i would be worried about having it open while in my pocket. Or is the button pretty stiff?

[cubixthe]

@ADROKMCA No there is no safety on these, but the button has to be pushed INTO the handle, pressing it against a desk will not cause the knife to fire. It has a sleeve around it. However it's designed to be carried in a kydex sheath.

[skatetocreate7]

@cubixthe i had a knife go into my leg a couple of days ago and it opened in my pocket and it is just a regular knife i have to pull it not press a botton idk how it hapened

[ArachnidFanatic]

Are they legal?

[cubixthe]

Depends on where You live.

[WejYllemS]

@ArachnidFanatic what a dumb question

[nls8520]

If you do not mind me asking what did you pay for this knife?

[TheJDoan]

Where did you buy it?

[pasidaman]

heh no offence but the other one looks like a potatoknife on the vid :D

[cubixthe]

double edged potato knife, good one Mr! :)

[XxKiNgxxKrAbxX]

@pasidaman i wouldn't pay $400 for a potato knife!

[cooooooool1357986420]

does the blade have any play, side to side or up to down =D, please respond

[cubixthe]

Most HALOs have super tight lockup, sometimes there might be a tiny play side to side but nothing like the Double Action models (Ultratech etc.)

[cooooooool1357986420]

thanks for the info man

[HoodaThunket]

wow... could you be any more insensitive to an entire nation of people? what an incredibly horrible thing to say... proud?

[shadowbot09]

MicroTech Knives are Military Grade Weapons designed for Anti Personel and Close Quarter Combat applications. Box cutters are Commercially produced bladed articles. If you cant afford to spend $500 on one then go with the Box Cutter.

[DMNKsTWIN]

You look like a tool.

[BRAVITS]

fo sho

[Finchig]

wat was the other knife auto in both ways?

[cubixthe]

Ultratech

[keiji93]

Great video man. I understand you're not in the US and bought yours second-hand however I've been looking for one for years and if you could offer any pointers (even if it requires a trip or international shipping) I'd very grateful.

[CoffinPuppet]

Nice. I really don't like the closing mechanism though.

[Halokid5656]

i was walking in walmart today when this old man rubs up against a metal rack and plop his illegal halo 3 falls on the ground and opens. i picked it up and closed then i had to run to catch up with him. this knife felt very solid haha

[cubixthe]

Nice, but there is one small detail - Halo wouldn't open after falling on the floor :)

[Halokid5656]

it had solid lock up but the button needed repair, he put through tough work it was scratched, and it had alot of nicks in the blade. how long has this knife been in production?

[endocondor]

It's only illegal in some states. Some states require permits while others will let you buy and possess them without issue.

[sohanlon10]

Isn't it funny how a knife seems small on film but when you have it in your hands it seems much larger then you expected?

[altiarassassin14]

why does it say halo 3?????

[cubixthe]

It has nothing to do with that game... if that's what You're asking. This is a knife model High.Atitute.Low.Action

[altiarassassin14]

awsome knife anyway just got a little confused

[Robotor77]

Is it a real HALO or a clone. Been wanting to buy a Microtech for a while but I just cant afford one. Any idea where to find a cheap copy some place ?

[cubixthe]

It's a real HALO, if You find a clone somewhere let me know :) I haven't seen any...

[clsundrop]

Pretty Sure H.A.L.O. stands for high altitude low-opening.

[rain6000]

im still tryin to save up for that

[WinterNightmare666]

y would u spend 400 $ on carry knife ??? u can buy a glock for that money or a shotgun, what a waste, and after 400$ i wouldn't even use the thing, ill stick with Benchmade and Sog over a overpriced knife thats made for probably 70$ and i have to pay 400$ lol

[cubixthe]

Well there are some countries where it's not that easy to get a firearm licence, and not many peaple walk around with shotguns (lol), think it's a good thing for most of them... You may be right on the knife price, I actually bought this when they were $300, based on what You wrote Your benchmade is made for $30 also, don't worry :) Have a nice day and don't shoot (or stab) anyone ! :P

[gnibdnaem]

I want one but I need to know if they have been proven overseas in the sand? Does the mechanism hold up?

[cubixthe]

if You drop it in the sand You might have a problem with opening it (well, every folding knife will have problems when the sand gets in some places). If You roll in the sand much and have to have a quick access to the knife go for a fixed blade ;)

[psychojackrabbit]

single action right

[DARKSTAR13SPENCER]

wuts the thing that comes out the bak

[sohanlon10]

a retraction lever

[jakeav11]

wat is the thing that deploys out of the end of the knife ? 'a sharpener?

[cubixthe]

It is used to compress the spring, you hide the blade and "load" it at the same time manually.

[Rawd1976]

The bigger of the two is gorgeous, very nice. Love that neck strap holder thing. awesome.

[Relics416]

where do you buy one of these?

[cubixthe]

Nearly impossible now, You have to look on knife forums if anyone has one for sale - they are not produced right now.

[RegainTruth]

Correct me if I am wrong, but i believe that they started production of the halo again. At least they were selling them at the SHOT show in Las Vegas.

[cubixthe]

Those were Halo V prototypes, 5" blade 11" Overall - small swords ;) There will be a production version - first series will have tritium buttons and they will be around $599 MSRP.

[sohanlon10]

on your oppinion what was stronger, the ultratech or the halo?

(Dude, you make the video seem so cool due to the music and background, good job.)

[cubixthe]

The Halo is way stronger, better locking mechanism (plunge lock)

[nate3993]

I agree, he does the best knife videos.

[bigguns1998]

were did you get it and how much

[Callcthulu]

my glock 21sf is better haha

[Zain844]

lol a bit harder to conceal though

[sparkypim]

buy the benchmade infidel

[DryWhiskey]

The ultratech is much better than the halo

[shaqdiesel22]

the halo should never be worn around the neck

[cubixthe]

and why is that ?

[rocknus]

how many does a microtech halo cost? and wich should i buy the troodon or the halo?

[cubixthe]

The Halo3 (If You can find one) is ~320-380$ right now depending on version. I think it's much better than the Troodon - the Troodon has a very thin blade and it's much smaller.

[rocknus]

thanks, are they that expensive?

[Mantle256]

yea but this is only single action

[cubixthe]

But also more reliable than D/A :) And MUCH better lockup aswell.

[incrowdcynic]

Which model is the second one with the dual action?

[johnwilldoug777]

Ultratech I believe.

[gtxts1000]

very nice ..I want one

[Firerer1935]

I want one

[thearizona]

Good thing MICROTECH has started producing knives again :) However they will make only 100 knives of each model in a month, that's not much. The first ones to come out will be new Ultratech 8's. Don't know if the Halo3 will be produced - will let You know when I find out.

[ryl417]

Me too!

[pedicabdr1ver]

beautiful blade

[masterchrisx3]

i dont mean to sond like a retard but is this from the game or is that the brand

[cubixthe]

The brand is Microtech, HALO3 is the model. I think it's a bit older than the game too :P

[masterchrisx3]

lol i just got an milano(i think) switch blade out the side ilove mah new knife

[BlueSharpieG33k]

What's better? Socom elite or scarab..Plzl dont scream at me im kinda new to knives.. Or the halo 3?

[cubixthe]

hard to tell, they are all great knives. But if You want to do some really hard work with the knife then You should get the Socom. OTFs are not good with dirt and stuff like that.

[Jujutsuka4LIfe]

The neck sheath is a great idea.

[unKut1004]

nice vid man ;D

[ZapppBrannigan]

great collection. great vids.

[hahaiam13]

can i buy it of you

[SlashRocks145]

thats not a knife...

THIS IS A KNIFE. (Y)

[jeepsheepnc]

Nice knife man. Do you know anything about Piranha Automatic knives? I was plannin on buying one.

[deadzero1978]

CRKT Hissatsu Folder... you can't go wrong

[cubixthe]

asian crap, Don't get me wrong read my reply under the ULTRATECH.

[deadzero1978]

Halo3 =Over-priced crap, get a Cold Steel or a Spyderco

[cubixthe]

haha good one ;) Some peaple prefer steel that's harder than clay You know ?

[nadir7x]

Hahaha, I know, the Halo3 is overpriced, but then again all Microtechs are expensive. If I could help it though I would get a Microtech over a Cold Steel or Spyderco any day! My friend has a Scarab and lifted a sewer top with it! The steel though on Spyderco and even Cold Steel are pretty good.

[sohanlon10]

Cold steel is actually a good company, exept for lynn tomsen...

I own a ti-lite, and for the money it is the best knife i have...

[antixbush]

yeah they're way to over priced man

[wachman]

hmmmm you must be in the military or law enforcement.....??

[cubixthe]

In the US, maybe. Here - No ;)

[i7q]

nice video.

i did not realize thats how

you close the halo.

[DevastatorKnight]

good video. You have the makora too. lol i have the same 2 knives as well. my makora has the serrated edge though. i have the halo 2 & the M.O.D. triton dual action too. Is the halo 3 your favorite knife in your collection?

[sevenedges]

You don't have to be rich to own a lot of microtechs, although I personally know a couple people who have about 50,000.00 or more worth of knives. Now that is a lot to me.

[kenozd]

thanks thearizona.does anyone know where can I order this knife on internet(i looked everywhere but no one doesnt delivery it in croatia)

[kenozd]

does halo III have safety mechanism that prevents if it accidentaly goes out.sorry for my english.

[thearizona]

no it doesn't. But it won't fire accidentally because you have to push the button INTO the handle about 1mm to make it fire. Beside You shouldn't carry it in your pocker in the first place ;)

[ziggy95340]

what r u rich or something youve got a buttload of these knives and their all 0ver $275

[snufferoo]

maybe he has a job

:O

[ziggy95340]

its still a lot of money 2 spend on knives but hella worth it

[jayanthonyvillanueva]

i havent seen a microtech under 250.00

[cubixthe]

there are a couple of cheaper ones out there - Manus, Mini Socom Elite...

[BiGRiCeD]

I REALLY want one of those. How much was that?

[PolarisCZ]

Coolest knife ever, I definitely need one! Is this kind of knife legal in Arizona?

[snufferoo]

yes

[Marskelletor]

lol "never been used" second hand haha. The knife was designed not for hunting, not for cutting vegtables, but for cutting and stabbing in specific another human being. So when you bought it used I hope it had "never been used"

[YoungStreetzD]

The H.A.L.O series is my favourite Microtech knife. Where did you buy yours.

[cubixthe]

It's second hand but it was never used and it was a pretty good deal ;)

[xslip666knotx]

imagine if you pushed the button but had the knife the wrong way around and it just went right trough your hand xD

[cubixthe]

creative, but not possible :P

[PolarisCZ]

Nice video, awesome knife. I want one!

[ninjadude9]

your not supposed too because someone can just snatch it and ur in trouble

[cubixthe]

it's just for show. U wear it under your clothes not outside. Besides 90% peaple don't know what it is :)

[poorman35953]

You realize that you're not suppose to wear the sheath around your neck right?

[cubixthe]

and why is that ? :)

[cubixthe]

the thing is single action has NO or very little bladeplay just like normal side opener unlike the D/A ones where you can really feel the blade moving. It's not very good if you want to use the knife... So the D/A are only good for stabbing peaple ... lol just kidding ;)

[SchmittySwitch]

is the singal action otf stronger? why not have double action for convenience?

[cubixthe]

Price ~350$ (but I've seen it for almost $400..)

[loszabo]

Excellent video, well done!

[snufferoo]

ahhh... another amazing blade as usual :)
