CRKT - Ashworth Turtle Knife Review

[akumarisu]

I forgot to leave my knife in the car the last time when I visited federal building and I was given some death glares... But with this, I'll be all good.

[JefferyHunt]

you have a nice broadcast voice.

[NashofLON]

I got this knife a while back but hadn't really taken it out of it's case until now and I noticed that when I put the money clip on it doesn't stay stationary, even tightened down it spins around the screw in the middle of it, is there something I've missed in attaching the clip or is mine just a bit faulty?

[wwwknivestowncom]

@NashofLON I did not have that problem. Check that you may have cross threaded the screw which is preenting it from seating all the way.

can it cut rope ? so when i got capture and be tied with rope i can rescue myself

[OrangePHX]

It's something I wouldn't carry..but I think it is a really cool design.

[BaconBeast11]

cool review

[egardenhire1]

il need to get ong

[squarechannel]

wonder if this little bad boy would be of help if you go mountain climbing to...say Mt. Everest... no let's ponder on that for a minute.. :P

[ArmyBoyRFA]

HAHAAH thats pretty good!

[averit]

It's a womens knife like spyderso keychain.

[BenX74]

Got one of these - best keychain knive I know. Also, nobody gets freaked out when you use the knive in the general public.

[doyleusmc]

what is the purpose of such a knife? none practical i bet

[mrCrispy725]

So, opening boxes, mail, peeling small fruits, small cutting task like string and tape are not practical uses? Not everyone need a large knife, if all they are doing is small cutting tasks.

[AndrewXAnarchy]

It's cutse I'll give it that but I don't think it'll be used much. A nice gift maybe.

[chrisw40]

pretty cool

[ynewbee]

where did u get that and how much

[NeoQuello]

would you say that is reasonable price for a knife that tiny..??

[wwwknivestowncom]

There are 4 models, 2 are priced at $29 and 2 at $39. The MSRP on these knives is $39 and $49 respectively. Knives are priced according to things like materials used, design and construction, brand name, etc...not based on size. In the Turtle you have a well-built, unique, liner lock knife not available anywhere else that doubles as a pendant for a woman or a money clip for a man. I guess you have to decide if you think the price is right.

[NeoQuello]

how much is it???

[DemskeetSkeet]

I wear Blue Jeans quite a bit so I think that the money clip will work better than a pocket clip because of blue jeans being thicker.

How many folded in half bills will the money clip hold?

Thanks

[DemskeetSkeet]

Can't remember if you stated in the video but what is the blade steel?

[wwwknivestowncom]

The steel is 420J2. it is a high carbon stainless at Rc 52-55.

[DemskeetSkeet]

So does that hold its edge well enough for cutting paper/opening mail/packages?

I have never heard of that kind of steel before, other than the stainless.

Does the money clip act as a pocket clip too? I like to have my knives with a clip so it sits inside of my pocket but have the clip on the outside of my pocket so I have easy access to it.

Please let me know if this little knife is capable of this.

Thanks and great vids! Keep up the good work

[wwwknivestowncom]

The steel is plenty good enough for the small chores it was designed for. It has an edge and yes it can do well with mail, packages paper, etc.

The clip is really a money clip as you can see by how wide it is. I suppose you could clip it to your pocket if you wanted. I watched the vid again and noticed I refered to it as a pocket clip a couple times. Yes, it could work as a pocket clip, but it really is a money clip. The knife is small enough that carrying it loose in a pocket was the design.

[DemskeetSkeet]

Alrighty, thank you very much for all of the info!

I think I might try to snag one black one on ebay.

Thank you for all your help, and keep up the great videos!!!

[AppoloMythos]
