Ka-Bar Lightweights: "Military Colors" by Nutnfancy

[04dak18]

Hey Nutn just wanted to know how you engraved your knives. I want to do that on one of mine it would look badass!!!

[ianarno]

Thanks for the review, I recently bought one of these in black, thumbhole, no blade finish for my girlfriend and liked it so much I just ordered one each in coyote tan and foliage green after seeing your updated review of the new colors.

[AeroCmdr]

Just wanted to thank Nutn for this video. Wasn't too big into knives until I started watchin' your videos and I only just got the FG version of this a few days ago as my first folder. Definitely going to be a lot more added in the coming year to my fledgling collection.

[Seancusmc]

Awesome knife for $15. But I cant see using that as an EDC for a long period of time. Great for camping and small projects, but EDC? Nope. I'd rather spend the extra money on something more reliable. For this style knife, the Benchmade Griptillian is unbeatable. It's reliable and no maintenance make it perfect for EDC,

[hebson21]

Liked the video but when I checked their site I was unable to find them. I was just wondering why that would be

[PureAsGold]

Just got my spear point in coyote brown from agrussell with a visa gift card...gotta love the holidays!!

[assassinflight]

Dear Mr Nut'n just found on the Nex Shipped $10 OMG Very cool

[KevlarWhite95]

Even more new colors and styles like orange, pink, and grey handles and different opening options like the "thumb notch" wich is a cutout in the blade. Love the vids and keep them coming and I'll always watch them.

[videosbythe5]

What should I buy at Canadian tire?a folding knife, or a multi tool?I have 90 dollars.

[SuperUltra64]

@videosbythe5 It really depends on what you want to do with it, but I think their selection of folders is better than their selection of multi-tools. They have some great inexpensive folders, but I personally favor the Bucklite, Buck Vantage, Buck Bantam, and Buck Nobleman - they seem to be the most reasonably priced. I'd stay away from their Yukon & Gerber knives. Yukon is cheap junk; Gerber is decent, but definitely not worth CT's prices.

[jmassey74]

This may be a stupid question,but what's TMP stand for?

[FerrariGirlNr1]

Jeah, I am left-handed and I love it ;-)

And if you use two zip ties instead (zip tie mod), you have a wave feature ;-D

[SuperRip7]

These "lightweights" have a nickname. I call them flickers.

[mysss29]

Does anyone know if the color is actually OD? I can only seem to find the foliage green version, which looks pretty gray to me. I love OD but I'm not crazy about gray and that's a dealbreaker for me.

[jmassey74]

How's the clip on this knife? Is it a pretty strong clip or will it break off?

[tothesouthzone]

Got one in OD and Coyote in the mail this weekend. LOVE the colors- OD is going on my flight suit- tan on my gear and will probably be my EDC for a while too. Sharp yes- took the hair off my arms :)

[tothesouthzone]

Only complaint -I ordered from AG Russell from a .mil e-mail and no mil discount was applied. Not sure what else I was supposed to do to get a discount. Anybody know?

[besteversaw]

where can you buy this? please!

[Don007206]

Grate knife

[wolfgoblin]

I just got the 4066 as my first EDC knife. Now, i'm by no means an expert on knives but i know quality when i see it and i'm really impressed with how solid this is. It doesn't feel cheap at all. Granted it's not premium either, but damn, it's amazing how much they give you for $15-20.

[c0nsci0usness]

I watched this video like 3 times before I ordered the knife, and like 3 times after. I think I have a problem.

[TheGuyWithAWeirdName]

in my experience kabar, crkt and kershaw knives arrive sharp, and most of the rest do not, including CS and benchmade

[shaveddave]

just ordered that shit after watching ur video. nice

[22sisko]

you a so amazing

[Smacksophone]

Just got the Dozier Folding Hunter in tan today and I have to say it is darker than what is in your video. Its more of a dark earth than a tan but I think it looks just awesome! Its super light, the blade comes out nice and fast, locks up strong, and is razor sharp out of the box. Great knife, and its worth more than what you will pay for it! Only thing is that the clip is super tight and retains too strongly. I bet its just mine though. Other than that great review/update and awesome knife!

[supersportler93]

The orange handle/black blade version just arrived. Love it.

[dikkiedo44]

dude ur vids rock i really like tht u tell it like it is.that way i can see and hear what the real deal is about a knife be4 i buy. keep up tha good work cya later.

[forkedroad]

im gonna get all three:

Foliage Green,

Coyote Brown,

& Blaze Orange.

[yoitsspiderman]

@nutnfancy What's* - sorry i meant to say what's

[yoitsspiderman]

@nutnfancy was a decent inexpensive tactical edc pocket knife?

[redriderjman]

To nutnfancy, hey man I know you probably get hundreds of requests a week but I really wanted to throw 2 ideas in. First it would be awesome if you could do one on the née KA BAR TDI sidelock and how it compares to the regular fixed blade. Also I was hoping for a in depth review of some victorinox SAK's and how much you are willing to push each individual tool. That would be awesome man.

[mifootball23]

This blade also comes in a really cool blaze orange!!

[mwhich50]

Thanks for the recommendation. I really like my plain stainless Dozier. Total user. I will be rotating between the Dozier and the 3 inch Sogzilla for EDC. My Leek, Salt 1 and Delica will remain in pristine condition, in my closet, thank you.

[CashFirearms]

Wanted to chirp in with my experience. Last hunting season I was carrying one of these, black version. Snagged my coveralls on a barbed wire cattle fence and fell into a tree, smacked my left side hard. Later in camp i pulled the knife out and to my amazement only had half a knife. Handle snapped off in my pocket, complete failure and some jagged pieces I was unaware of that could have cut me. Love Kabar but i think im stickin with steel liners from here. Love the vids!

[ballietbran]

where can i order these?

[CashFirearms]

Wanted to give a heads up. I just received the new Cold Steel Outdoorsman lite. If you've seen it in the new catalog it doesn't do it justice, it is twice the knife I thought I was getting. Appears to be very durable, great ergo's, great full tang construction, good polish and finish. If you'd like to do a first impressions reveiw on the newest cold Steel offering i would be happy to ship it to you, just let me know! Keep up the good work! Owe, Im a long time viewer, just a new account.

[son12509]

i like carrying a knife, but i dont understand nutnfancy's reason for liking to carry point-up in ur pocket. can someone explain the significance of this tactic??

[ARCustomKnives]

@son12509 Tip carry preference is based mostly on how you're used to deploying your blade. Typically, it's easier/faster for most people to deploy a blade from a tip up carry position in your pocket.

Most of those who prefer tip down do so for safety reasons. The thought is that you can't accidentally stab your hand in the knife comes open in your pocket. IMO, a properly carried (towards rear of pocket) tip up blade is safer than tip down AND easier to deploy.

[mwhich50]

@son12509 When you pull your knife out of your pocket, your thumb is already positioned over the thumb stud allowing you to immediately flip open your blade.

[graffsucks]

whats LEO?

@graffsucks Law Enforcement Officer.

God bless!

[b3ARcAT40oz]

man it would be great to have these in acu digi camo

[MONKEYDUDEELITE]

Sweet blade for the price

[no1livez4evr]

love the design but id rather have more of a droppoint blade then that spear-like blade shape

[killervid]

What is the deal with Ka-Bar's website? It is sad.

[xtremearmor]

Very nice looking knife and I do like the colors.

[itflysby]

I love knives with superior jimping!

[huboz0r]

Great video again. Since you are in the knife reviewing scene for some time, could you make a video about the trends you see come and go, and technical evolution of both design and material? I'm sure there must be some interesting in reviewing the bigger picture, and give some reference/philosophy about what is best about some trends and not good about others.

[TheUprisingNinja]

i am trying to find a edc knife under 40$ that i can get from the following sporting good stores- bass pro shop, sports chalet, sportsman warehouse. can any one recommend one.

Much appreciated.

Also does anyone know a website i can trust to buy knives from cause my parents are extremely old school and think that every site is hacked and trying to steal money (dont ask =/)

[TheCrushmaster]

@TheUprisingNinja The Gerber Paraframe is pretty good...It runs about twenty-five dollars, at Wal-Mart. I have two Paraframe IIs, coated, that are quite excellent knives; they even held up decently to saltwater (they probably would have done perfectly if I'd cleaned them properly...or...something). 3.5" blade, skeleton style handle, serrated blade (you can probably get one in non-serrated if desired), good all-around knife.

Hope this helps. God bless.

[TheCrushmaster]

@TheUprisingNinja Err...sorry, maybe my suggestion wasn't applicable; I'm not sure if those places sell it...Sorry, mate. :-\

[c0nsci0usness]

@TheUprisingNinja You need to explain to them that this is the digitial age and almost EVERYTHING can be bought for cheaper online

[foodlovingpig]

Just got one. It has some blade play (back and forth, not side to side). Also, I can't get the damn clip off. I unscrewed it, but I can't get the other end to come out. Anyone else have those problems?

[liveecarbme]

LOOOOVE K-BAR!

[utlong1]

cold you do a review of a tac 1 by ontario ??

[marlinm60ss123]

what are the specs of this knife? like the blade/ handle length

[DigitalUrbanCamo]

Yea I remember this review and I ended up loving these knives so much I bought every style. These new colors are awesome and I love um. Not really into the orange one they put out but other then that these little bad boys are worth every penny and more. Your right about the steel being a bit soft but im ok with that because i sharpen my knives regularly. I do however wish you would have pointed out that the coating on these knives will peel off vary easily cuz i swear i think its paint. TY NUTN

[VirgilHawkins1]

My Esee Izula is 3.3 Oz. total, sheath and all, and it's a 5/32 inch thick piece of 1095 high carbon steel so I can baton and split wood with it. Plus with a 2 3/4 inch hair-splitting-sharp blade, it's my primary defensive blade. You really need to look into neck knives.

[VirgilHawkins1]

You should do a tabletop of Osama bin Laden's corpse . . .

[2142Unknown]

@VirgilHawkins1 Afraid thats at the bottom of an ocean geting eaten by the creatures of the sea at the moment.

[traines2332]

Just bought this knife at the 2011 NRA Expo in Pittsburgh. Got it for $10! They were selling them 5 for $40 at their booth. I got the 4065 model with the orange handle and black blade. Glad to hear that Nutn approves..

[SURVIVALMAN1987]

@nutnfancy can you do a review on ontario sp 50

[Jesses001]

I am guessing the small area without textureing that lines up with the clip is designed to not damamge your pocket. Either that, or a cosmetic thing that just so happens to work for that, lol.

[m1ghtysauc3]

Hey Osama, remember 9/11? Meet Navy SEAL.

[aProudNRAMember]

@m1ghtysauc3 From precision execution of pirates on the open sea, to ending the life of on of the worlds most infamous terrorists. God bless them.

[2142Unknown]

WE KILLED OSAMA BIN LADEN

THANK YOU JESUS

[ahesse1488]

osama bin laden is deaddddddddddddddddddddddddddd :-)

[Jeff4975]

Please do a table top on the m1a socom. I want to know how accurate the one you used was. I have a socom 16 and it shoots 4" groups at 100 yards with Winchester 147gr

[Tux3d0]

Osama bin laden in DEAD RALLY THE MESSAGE PRONOUNCED DEAD at 10:47 Eastern P.M!!!

[xXgodpersonXx]

you should put links in the description on where we can buy these because i cant find alot of the knives you show. great job though!

[RuthlessZabusa]

Got one today at the NRA Convention :D

[AirRiflePaintball]

TNP'r since 08'. Yes Kabar rocks man. high quality.

[moparmatty98]

Great blade!!! I pick one up about a year ago from your first video. Love it still.

[9ThEgReAtOuTdOoRs7]

i need a better edc knife. btw nutnfancy  u can get custom kydex sheaths for the rtak 2 on ebay for like 40-50 dollars.

[leftie4all]

Bought the brown one a litle while after seeing the original video, good edc-blade!

[britishbiker97]

thanks Nutnfancy. i love watching the EDC knife reviews, can't wait for the next one. Could you do a review for a knife that is UK legal (eg. the Spyderco UK penknife or something similar). the UK laws are so annoying and it would be great if you could review a knife for us UK viewers. thanks, keep up the good work!!

[GUNSISCOOL]

Love the short video! My attention span can't handle the 45 min stuff. It's just too much.

[VinceFull]

I'm somewhat confused.

That spear point blade is called the regular hunter, whereas the drop point blade is called the Mini-Hunter.

So, is this drop point in the vid that "Mini" Hunter, or are there different versions?

[MichiganTNP]

2008 is when I started watching your vids

[MichiganTNP]

This is a "just ordered knife"

[barefoot130]

Ah, I remember my first Nutnfancy vid (Benchmade 710). I have been a subscriber since then (although had to change my channel d/t someone hacked my channel/email). Hey Nutn, I am awaiting another "lessons" vid, but love the "old school" knife reviews.

[FlipFlibbo]

LOL I had no idea officers were so cool and likeable! your take on these products are fun, real and very cool! thanks! "see ya!"

[FlipFlibbo]

"gettin better with my engraving, mm hmm" LOL little things like that make me love your commentaries!

[Whitekid762]

FLAG THE BRADY CAMPAIGN'S "ASSAULT CLIPS" VIDEO FOR CHILD ABUSE.

[BackWoodsPuppy]

Nice engraving there Nutn! Did you do that with a dremel?

[SgtSecsy94]

I have a dick shaped OTF knife and the blade shoots out when you squeeze the left hut and comes back in when you pull the right nut, i got it at sports authority on sale

[Zebrahead6000]

Convinced... bought.

[longboarders1]

where can i get it???

plz reply.

[Zebrahead6000]

@longboarders1 Dude, look at the annotation, google it, learn to use your resources.

[longboarders1]

@Zebrahead6000 ok tanks... 

[namehisname]

Thinking of buying two of these for me and my father

[anestischatzibeis]

great!i ll buy one in orange collor(easy spoted in case you drop it in a forest) and i think i ll buy the olive one so cool!Thanks for the review nutn!

[youinstube]

hey nutn... man you really know how to spend my money, guess I'll have to do some shopping now :-)

[howardtong1324]

Hey nutnfancy, what happened to part 3 of Winter Sense?  (Like this so he can see)

[justins462]

lmao dude i have to have this knife, well time to do some shopping!! :D

[Fedaykin24]

Odd question buddy but have you ever flown one of the three KC-135 that the Royal Air Force are purchasing for conversion into RC-135W they are:

64-14833 (New UK serial ZZ664)

64-14838 (New UK serial ZZ665)

64-14830 (New UK serial ZZ666 - wonder what nickname the RAF crews will give her...)

Once they are completed it would be interesting seeing an aircraft that you have flown...then again I know the US has a huge number of KC-135!

[spongyboi]

Darn you nutn! I ordered one right after I saw this video! LoL!

[hangemhigh2000]

Americas coming back. I don't believe my ear$

[geepcj2a]

I have a Gerber LST  that looks to be about the same size. Super easy to carry, light weight, slender, and a nice size stainless blade. These look like something I'd really like. Thanks.

[CitizenSnipsify]

The first nutn video I watched was the original Ka-Bar Dozier video, bought the knife because of it. I've been an avid viewer ever since. keep it up bro.

[thedonqwet]

No probs mate. We will stick with ya as you have stuck with us. I wish the endura ffg came in these colors.

[zerobinary2]

For $15, this is a great knife!

[SJKR38]

From The Beginning!

[MikeReiner]

I only started following the project mid 2009, but man what a ride it's been. I hope to meet you in person some day, I live minutes from the Ogden Impact Guns but sadly couldn't make it there on your last announced visit.

[nutnfancy]

@MikeReiner Sorry I missed ya' man...maybe next time. I sure appreciate you hanging around for so long. I know it sounds played but there's a lot more to come and I have yet got out there what I want to. Made some progress tonight though: five more reviews filmed. Thanks again.

[Toycoma]

I need one.

[TheLateBoyScout]

Sweet colors. I need to give this knife another look.

[Overloaded3]

I dig the thumb hole version (4065) and the large versions (4070 w/ stud & 4071 w/ thumb hole). The large's are about $5 more and you get a 3.625 in. blade vs the regular 3.0 in.

[nutnfancy]

@Overloaded3 Yes they are cool and lots of blade for the money.

[g1sfo]

@Overloaded3 - I should have bought the 4070. I just bought the lightweight dozier - the blade is slow to open and needs the thumb to push it open, also wish the thumb stud was on both sides of the blade.

[donniecr]

great knife. one of my favorites

[AussieMark909]

I can't ague with you here, these are terrific value EDC knives. I already have three of these great little knives. They are also available in orange handle/black blade, and pink handle/satin finish blade.

[nutnfancy]

@AussieMark909 The orange one would be cool too.

[AussieMark909]

@nutnfancy Actually I've been thinking that myself, I can see the collection growing to four any time now :)

[thedarkdomino]

Anyone know if this is legal knife in Oklahoma? I heard from someone the laws a pretty strict on knives there.

[freakshow2000]

I wonder what would happen if nutnfancy did a tabletop review of nutnfancy......hmmmm

[TriCk2o9]

I just got one in coyote tan.

[TriCk2o9]

just ordered one haha.

[jmaccaughan]

Haha I just bought this knife for 15.99 on amazon haha. Tan looks sick. Thanks for showing a sweet new knife!! Thanks Nutn

[nutnfancy]

@jmaccaughan Great score on that price! I think you will love the blade.

[WindRooster]

Sold!!!

[xxTandersonxx]

ahh never mind, the price isnt even close, i thought you said $50 not $15

[xxTandersonxx]

Hey nutnfancy what would you prefer this or the spyderco delica?

[nutnfancy]

@xxTandersonxx Delica 4 in FFG in VG-10 is a Hall of Fame blade and I like it more. Maybe love it is a better way of putting it. However you could buy three of these for the price of one of those.

[nightrider2k6]

@nutnfancy i agree i luv my spyderco's, cant beat it.

[freddieb3003]

these are great little knives. i've got three and i use them to thrash on instead of my more expensive blades.

[shampoovta]

I like that. Tan is sweet.

[evilbunnyreviews]

You should sign and sell them you did with the rat 1 but cheaper.

[TheCanadianKnifeGuru]

I can't believe how short this video was!

[LittleGuy67]

nutn bustin out the sub 10 min vids, dang.

[ihikearoundcom]

Yep, remember that blade(dozer) picked one up! And Now Another!

[MrChino303]

You should sell a few blades autographed/engraved like that. I wouldn't mind having one in my collection. 

[ironmonkeyz]

@nutnfancy AGRussle upped the price to $2195 I guess they got wind of the video, It was the price you said last night. I guess you snooze you lose. Darn it!

[ironmonkeyz]

@ironmonkeyz uhh I meant $21.95

[soadfansoad]

@ironmonkeyz $21.95 or $2195?

[ironmonkeyz]

@soadfansoad I corrected myself in the next post. I missed a decimal point or 2. lol. though if too many TMP'rs go buy them we might drive the price up to $2195

[Webdeezy]

Your mileage may vary. Rock on.

[MrSparten123]

I luv kabars

[jomomma193]

Wow, a nice AUS8 blade for $15? Might have to pick up an OD one.

[ironmonkeyz]

Nice! I'm gonna get me one of those. That must be a world record shortest Nutnfancy video. But I had to one uo it so I uploaded a 4min and 41 second vid. LOL

If only the royal wedding was as short as this video the world would br complete.

[Jej171]

i carry one of the older models every day.

[TACTICSRUS]

SWEEEET!!!!! A quality blade I can afford!!!! Thanks NUNTFANCY!!

[20tom09gt]

just got that in black and orange nice for the price

[troybv6]

Holy crap, I bought one of those knives years ago, way before watching nutn, but I think I paid like $35 for it.

[Nukias68]

in black... ehh...not so much.

in tan and o.d.... OH YEAH!!!

price even better.

[wtfproductionz100]

Hey Nutn, I literally just found out that Ruger will be realeasing an SR1911. Will you be purchasing and or doing a review on it? It seems like it's gonna be a beast!

[MrMAX4400]

Thanks for the update. 

[TheDaytonDevil]

Great vid GOD BLESS!

[USNVET81]

Been here since the begining and so has this knife I LOVE THIS KNIFE i carry one every day for work. Break it? Who cares 15$ replacement. A+ Kabar& Nutn

[oyarrito]

Nice! Thanks for sharing.

[SURVIVALMAN1987]

@Nutnfancy when you get time will you please do a review on the ontario SP50  Thanks!

[Camohat100]

where i can get something like the buck 503 only like 3 inch larger?

[millster101]

For the price, I can't get upset for leaving them in my pants when throw them in the washer and dryer.

[1234sensei]

Hmmmmm, you forgot to mention the ugly & completley un-ergonomic handle. Not like you at all......

[kentgr59]

wow, I just kinda assumed this was 45 minutes long, and I'd consider myself kinda long term, it's been about 300, 400 videos since I subscribed

[Hots2869]

You do great work I'm glad I've been watching for more then a year now.

[kmckay3120]

im kind of a noob but i was wondering what is a volcano issue with thumb studs?

[dzld9]

Where can you get it for $15? I've only seen it for $20ish

[hammer2787]

wow

[verisharp]

This was the first knife I ever bought 3 years ago after watching your review.... still love the knife, still love you(no homo lol)

[foodlovingpig]

I was recently informed of a mistake on my taxes. I owe more money to them. Because of you, Nutnfancy, I have to decide between paying up the rest of my taxes, or buying more knives, and I already know that my decision will lead to me being gang raped by the IRS. Thanks.

[vassal11]

I have the G10 MULE. Nutn probably dislikes the heavy weight but I use it as a backup for my 7" Utility (Ka-bar.) In that POU it is AWE-SOME! I could build a HOME with it if I had to. To have that capability even after I break/lose my full size! WHOA!!!

[USAPatriot63]

Thanks for the recommendation. At that price, I think I gotta have one.

[LOSPAJAROS]

Do a review on the Naa mini revolvers. please
