Why I Like Hideaway Knives

[aamguy]

HAK's are just plain awesome.

ZERO freak out factor when you pull it out at work to open a package....

Deadly if needed and instant to deploy.

It may not always be the only blade on me...but it IS always on me.

Great video - shows the wonder of the design for sure.

[warmachine493]

hey,love the vid,would u tell me what kind of headset ur wearing,thanks

[Frankdude72]

@warmachine493 Peltor's. They kinda blow though.

Go with the Sordins.

[TheJUGGERNAUT987]

you are a badass.

[lovingbass4ever]

im hangin with you when the zombies come

[Ksailand1]

The thing no one probably realizes is all your gear is super expensive. The FNC (which is the SCAR of the 70's.) is sick and 3 grand. Flashlight 250-300 bucks. And then the two glocks are the only average things you show, but you have 2 of them. And your Jacket if I'm Right is Arcteryx which is like 400. So props dude. Nice shit.

[QUERCUSst]

when will an everyday person nead a hideaway knife??

[Frankdude72]

@QUERCUSst Since they're incredibly useful for everyday tasks (even something as mundane as opening boxes or DVD cases), an everyday person can find all kinds of uses / needs.

[rockstarr469]

@QUERCUSst Come on really?

[tylergran1]

where did u get those two at the beginning i cant find them and whats the name of the hideaway knife

[Frankdude72]

@tylergran1 Those are Warren Thomas T-Rex hideaway knives.

There were only 25 or 50 made, so finding one is going to be tricky.

Honestly, the regular Hideaway knives cut much better.

I just used these as they're larger and show up better on video.

[snarkvalid]

You fail at guns. Your reloads are sloppy as shit, you suck at drawing a handgun, your transitions are slower than old people fucking, and you probably couldn't run without half the shit you have stuffed in your belt falling out and leaving a trail of tactical crap behind you.

[Frankdude72]

@snarkvalid Actually I wear that stuff everyday, not just at some IPSC match.

Look dude, take a deep breath, relax, and pull the stick from your ass.

It'll hurt a little at first, but you'll feel more like a human being and less like a jackhole the longer that stick is out.

Oh wait, I wasted enough time giving half a crap here.

Time to go enjoy my life after I ban yet another guy who's Mom didn't hug him nor teach him manners.

[cjmsr6669]

@snarkvalid where the fuck is your video douchebag?

[Frankdude72]

@cjmsr6669 To be fair, he's got tons of videos of him participating in matches.

(And of course IPSC and 3-gun style matches replicate combat concerns exactly *rolls eyes*)

So unlike most internet dorks, I can't say he's afraid to go on camera to show off his stuff.

He's just unbelievably rude, lacks context, and lacks understanding that this was a proof of concept video.

He got banned because he went on my channel acting like he was on some forums where they act like arrogant jackholes.

[cjmsr6669]

@Frankdude72 Well to be fair you can have all the talent in the world but if you aren't humble about it you really don't have shit in my opinion so just for the record fuck snarkvalid I hope he finds a fire and dies in it.

[Frankdude72]

@cjmsr6669 Agreed, 100% agreed, and thank you!

All the genuine professionals I have met are humble and have class.

Unlike snarkvalid and the jackwagons at the forum he came from.

[somerandomfireman]

Also, how the hell have you not shredded your jacket yet?

[Frankdude72]

@somerandomfireman People keep thinking I'll cut myself.

But if I do this for years and don't cut myself, then others' fear and theories just miiiight be wrong....

[onfireupinhere22]

should have ended the video with an airstrike.

[ridah925]

Nice TAD specter lrp!!! I have the same softshell great jacket hows yours holding up?

[Frankdude72]

@ridah925 Good eyes spotting that one.

Go far, so good. Haven't had a chance to really wring it out though.

[flonga1]

You know... If you're holding a rifle no one is probably going to get near you...

[Frankdude72]

@flonga1 Dangerous assumption.

Try clearing a cramped structure and have an opponent bum rush you from behind a hard corner or closet.

Suddenly you're wrestling for the rifle.

A lot easier to stab, slash, and/or shoot him with a pistol than wrestle.

[Briggs1700]

Man...FN FNC's are impossible to find here...and we produced them! Stupid Remark...why not use a bayonet on the FNC instead of a hideaway knife?

[Frankdude72]

@Briggs1700 Bayonets and HAKs are 2 different tools.

Bayonets add length to the gun.

Try navigating a tight structure like a mobile home hallway or tight alleyway with a long rifle.

The HAK is for when someone has gotten inside of your muzzle (clinch and ground distances) and you need to make him wish he never tried wrestling your rifle away.

[mwmalecky]

and SLASH!

[RebelMilitantMilitia]

I took same idea you did :) Helped when i was fighting Chechen

[DravenKeeney]

First off if youre packing all that...Fuck the knifes ahaha

[1000FeatheredOwl]

Quick! He is having too much fun! Someone Stop Him!!

[esh325]

You have a lot of interesting pre ban rifles.

[Frankdude72]

Thank you.

I've got more on the way when I have time to film them. ;-)

[rednecksniper27]

@esh325 The assault weapon ban has been over for quite a while. Frank most military magazines for rifles are desined so that they can be dropped without damage but only if you have it land bottom down the way it would if you just press the mag release.  Nice rifle as well what kind is it a G36??

[Frankdude72]

@rednecksniper27 Yes but the FNC and many of my other toys are still pre-Bush Sr.'s 1989 ban, so esh325 is right.

There's differing opinions on mag change w/ retention vs. dropping mag while reloading.

When to do it is completely contextual.

For further illumination on the pros and cons of either approach, I suggest you visit the WarriorTalk forums and buy Sonny Puzikas' Beyond the Firearm 2 DVD.

[Beachhead88]

"oop sucks to be you, suck to be you even more when I do this" lol

I've never fired an FNC but I hear their triggers are horrible. Did you get some trigger work on it? those are fast double taps.

[Frankdude72]

"Horrible triggers" is a relative term.

I'm sure it's horrible compared to a jeweled match trigger someone's using to shoot 1/4 MOA groups from a bench with.

There's a spring behind the trigger, and it makes it somewhat mushy, but it's perfectly serviceable for what the rifle's intended for.

[nightbird720]

:) Cool, but you are having too much fun with this, LOL!

[MrGatoMan1]

soooo what your saying is.. you like HAKs because you can have them on your hands and still use weapons? :-P

[Frankdude72]

There's lots of reasons I like HAKs,

but yes, that's the facet I'll illustrating here.

[TheRammstein16]

"thats the facet i'll illustrating here."

Are you a 'tard or just a dumbass?

[Frankdude72]

Thanks for your well thought out, insightful response.

Please keep at it so everyone's clear who the "dumbass" is.

[12GaugeLosAngeles]

Ha ha ha, damn dog... you need the mangler there..

[BigBosley]

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
