The Best Tactical Handle on a Folding Knife

[aTellerOfTruths]

Thanks for posting! I was ready to buy the Police model, but now I'll look at the Military.

[6leafdom]

u forgot the cqc8!!!

[elongatuspiranha]

@6leafdom No I didn't! I didn't have it at the time ;)

2:15, 3:29 I don't think anyone would ever try to pull a knife out of your hand from the blade.

[elongatuspiranha]

@iNSaNeVodka Your right! Just trying to show that the knife is hard to pull out of my hands, not showing an actual encounter. Thanks for watching.

[TheLateBoyScout]

Great collection. I've always liked the Military; glad to know it rates so highly for grip.

[elongatuspiranha]

@TheLateBoyScout Thanks for watching! I love my milli too!

[Lucentdawn]

I love your CQC-15. That's the Emerson I would probably buy at this moment.

[elongatuspiranha]

@Lucentdawn Make sure to make an unboxing when you do;)

[WeAllJuggleKnives]

Nice vid, man! I like videos such as this, they are for warriors with a brain! I like that CQC-13, it is on my buy list. ~Israel

[elongatuspiranha]

@WeAllJuggleKnives Thanks for your kind comment man. Not a lot of people like the CQC13. Not sure why?? I love that wicked blade shape!

[nosaj03]

Awesome vid! Emersons are usually the best made tactical folders.

[elongatuspiranha]

@nosaj03 I agree

[DemonHide]

I'd get a Police III if it had a Military handle. But no doubt the CQC's in this video probably have the best handle for tactical use out of the ones you've show.

[elongatuspiranha]

@DemonHide That would be something. A Military with a bigger blade!

[darkchild57]

I swear the Onslaught has the thickest handles but one of the thinnest blade to handle ratio. For better grip on the Strider get the "Lego" handles...or for the best of both worlds, get the double gunner grip:) It's a CC shape with traction. I see that Cuscadi can re-scale your Military to an even grippier G10. My money is on the CQC15:) I haven't stopped carrying mine since I got it! Cold Steel has some grippy G10 as well. Very hard cut! Great vid man! Thanks!

[elongatuspiranha]

@darkchild57 Yeah the Onslaught's blade is super thin. Gunner Grip might be coming soon...;)..might. You don't see my Recon 1 do you? I'm getting rid of it. lol. Still love my CQC15, but I'm just being honest;) IMO. Thanks buddy for watching my long video. Oh by the way your buddy Jeff has been commenting on my vids...he's been cracking me up LOL. Jeff a cool guy!

[Ferntheboss]

Excellent review!!! You own a great collection of knives...

[elongatuspiranha]

@Ferntheboss Thanks buddy!

[elongatuspiranha]

LOL,"No Skills or Experience you should NOT be doing close combat" LOL

[ZippoThisKnifeThat]

Great video man! Love seeing all the eye candy and the mostly Black theme.

With FrenziedCalm's points in mind, I'd go with the 15 for overall best tactical folder. My personal choice for weight, lock, and blade would be the Military. For me reach is extremely important since I am not skilled in knife fighting. lol

No Skills or Experience you should NOT be doing close combat. haha

[elongatuspiranha]

Never tried any ZT yet. Maybe they'll be next ;). I like the flipper on knives. I think they work very well.

[darkknigh225]

I say the best tactical handle knife i have is the ZT 0400. It fits perfectly in my hand. The trac tec inserst are really grippy and the finger choil/flipper is very functional. I also like the feel of the solid aluminum handles.

[jeffjuice3886]

what knife do you not have? I didnt even know you had half of those lol. Every video shows me new expensive knives, its like a dream and everytime I wake up the knives are in someone elses hand lol

[elongatuspiranha]

@jeffjuice3886 You got some of the best comments Jeff. LOL cool stuff man!

[oromoto]

cool vid!!

[elongatuspiranha]

@oromoto Thanks!

[FrenziedCalm]

To me tactical means its gotta be designed to save a life or take a life. Comfort level level would be way down on the checklist. Traction, blade strength, and choils/fingerguards, that kind of stuff would be way more important than comfort. Being able to open it and hold it in gloves would be important. If that Strider had the checkered lego grips it would be way up there, but since it doesn't I'd have to vote the Emerson CQC-13/15 as tops from that group.

[elongatuspiranha]

@FrenziedCalm Comfort is way down the list for me also. It's just amazing how comfortable the military is but yet it is so functional as a tactical blade. I agree the Emerson are always up there on the top of the list. The Strider handle has never impress me, maybe it's just the way it fits my hand. I have the lego grips too, and I agree its a lot better tactical wise than the CC. Thanks Frenized for watching! I can't wait to see your unboxing for the RoadHouse! SO SICK! I wish I can get one:(

[wolfbrother2501]
