the early back in your early days, you did youknocked 74 shows out in a month.
I'm telling you, man.
It's it's so crazy.

(03:10):
So crazy.
I was just now that you say that, because I'mtrying to organize all the podcasts onto one
hard drive.
And so today, I spent the whole day looking forall the different podcasts, and I was like,
we've been doing this for a long time.
Multiple locations.
So, like, right now, I'm in the house.

(03:31):
I did it from the van.
I did it from, I had a office space inGainesville.
I had a, like, a warehouse a mini warehouse inGainesville.
I did it from a place that we won't mentionanymore.
Oh, October.
Yeah.
So First time I
did it, I think you did it from I did it from ahotel room somewhere out west.
That's the first time I did it.

(03:52):
Yeah.
You were on the road.
I've done it on the road.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We were on our vacation vacation out out west.
West.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So we've done we've done this show a lot.
A lot.
And had a lot of people on.
I'm gonna get into that.
I do wanna give because one thing I noticedthat in the beginning, I was not saying what
episode number it was.
So episode, I think it is, 1,074.

(04:15):
It's free for all Monday.
Our guests are gonna be Dark of DefinitionKnives coming on.
He's coming in, I think, at around 07:30.
And, of course, Walter of Safety HarborFirearms for the probably thousandth and
something time.
I've given you some days off, though.

(04:35):
I had to have it out.
I didn't I didn't like doing that three day aweek crap.
Yeah.
Do you remember I wanted to do it, like, everysingle day?
No.
You were doing it almost every day, but
I Yeah.
Yeah.
I was, like, sometimes three days a week, andI'm, no.
I don't want it.
Yeah.
I was gonna do it seven days a week, and Lolowas like, that's definitely not gonna happen.
There there I mean, I'll be honest with you.
Some of the guests Mhmm.

(04:58):
Back in the day, I wasn't really too interestedin in having deep conversations with.
Oh.
So I just had to I just had to tolerate some ofthat.
Yeah.
The truth comes out.
We should do a rest a retrospective.
Like, since I'm putting all of these episodestogether
I have I have an idea.
You have like Joe does with Gunbroker.
Mhmm.

(05:18):
We review your show
Mhmm.
And you talk about the guests, and and nowthey'll never come on again after you
do that.
But
Yeah.
We had we had some cool guests.
Now, that brings me to a couple of things Iwanna talk about.
Well, first of all, let's do this.
This is what we traditionally do.
Here's the logo.
This is the animated version of the logoeveryone is seeing.
Let me know what you guys think about that outthere.

(05:40):
By the way, shout out to everyone that's there.
I'm gonna do I'm gonna do, like, a little bitof a roll call of everyone in the chat right
here in a in a, you know, in a few seconds.
So let me know what you guys think about that.
What do think, Walt?
I it's it's cool.
It's not
bad.
I know I know Patrick doesn't like the animatedstuff, but

(06:01):
No.
He doesn't like the animated, but it's a forpeople listening on audio, there's a skeleton,
that's me, holding I try to make a Bowie knife,like a gold Bowie knife.
Big old thing.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Big old thing.
Walter's holding who's the eagle?
He's holding a kukuri.
Right?
My favorite.
Yeah.
Yes.
And so that little hamster in there, that'sDark because Dark said he wanted to be a

(06:25):
hamster.
If you notice, he's got a suit on because Darkis something of a suit aficionado, which we'll
talk about when he comes in.
And even though he's, you know, one of theowners of Definition Knives, he's got a gun in
his hands because when I first asked him abouthis spirit animal, he said that it was a galak.
So trying to trying to accommodate him, youknow Yeah.

(06:49):
Since he's our buddy here.
I do wanna say this, before I give a shout outto the folks in the chat, which I see some of
the people saying in the chat.
Actually, Night Train says, very sad to hearthat Sam Paredes, the executive director of gun
owners of California passed away.
I just saw him at GOLDS convention a few weeksago.
I recall he was on the show years ago.

(07:11):
Yeah.
Rest in peace, Sam Paredes, man.
I believe, 1957 to 2025.
He was, a great guy, a champion for the secondamendment, you know, especially when it comes
to California, and he did a lot of differentthings here, including working for GOA vis a

(07:32):
vis the second amendment, but, I mean, hepretty much gave his life to the second
amendment, and he will be missed.
He was on the show I think he was on the showabout three or four times at least.
Go ahead, Walt.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
No.
I mean, and it you got you got a hell of afight in California California because they
don't give a they don't give not they don'tgive you an inch in California.
No.
California is so like, it's a it's a realtough, deal in California.

(07:57):
So oh, you got shot
on road.
That's the that's the reason I have now.
Actually, my my youngest sister moved toCalifornia
Mhmm.
And had this in at Hilton Head, and it's like,she didn't wanna break in California.
Probably would've been a pain in the ass.
Oh.
Is this a '22 or I can't tell.
Yeah.
It's a '22 f I e.

(08:18):
Mhmm.
These things were imported from Italy,actually.
Okay.
And, yeah, I took it up this weekend and up atthe swamp.
It's now a swamp, and I test fired.
Literally, it's a swamp.
Yes.
Oh, yeah.
It's a different
swamp.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You're gonna have to put so whatever you putover there, you're have to put on stilts.
Yes.
California is tough, man, and San Paredes wasout there fighting for a long time in

(08:42):
California.
I'm not really sure what happened.
This is my tribute to him.
I did put this up on X, if anyone wants to see,but yeah.
He was cool, man.
He was a great guest.
He came on, spent, you know, the full two hourshere with us, talking about things, and he was
a great sport, and it's, you know, I'm sad tohear that he's gone, and, man, you know, it's

(09:05):
tough.
Like, we've been doing you were saying we weredoing this so long when I was looking, like
like, I was gonna That actually came from ascreen capture of one of the episodes, and then
I put it through AI to make something like apainting for Sam, and the episode that I found
was with him and the Hoff the Hoff.

(09:25):
Oh, Hoff.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I was like, oh, man.
Both of those guys are gone.
You know?
It was kinda sad to see that.
So I guess we've been doing this so long.
Unfortunately, that kind of stuff happens.
You know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yes.
It does.
Yeah.
We've lost a few soldiers for the secondamendment out there.
Well, we we we replaced the old Hoff with theyoung Hoffman, Tim Hoffman.

(09:48):
Yeah.
Yeah.
And So you know that guy.
I don't think I've ever met him, but you knowhim.
Right?
He's a yeah.
Yeah.
I I I Mhmm.
Going to goals last year, we stopped at hisplace Mhmm.

That's freaking I mean, I don't say this a lotto a lot of people.
That fucking kid is smart.
Yeah.
He
is.

(10:09):
Mean, he is he is he is not just smart.
He's, like, freaking, like
He
there's it's it's like, you know, it's like amain it's like a supercomputer running in there
all
the time.
There's something he built his own hot airballoon of all things, believe it or not.
Oh, wow.
So he's probably a little bit like Musk, likeElon Musk.
Right?
I think you've said that, like, something verysmart, but some things he forgets or whatever

(10:32):
because so much stuff going through the brain.
Well, you heard the story about goals year.
Right?
Yes.
He parked we rode we rode with him to the eventone day, and we parked in the parking garage.
And then he forgot where the car was.
Because there there were two parking garagesside by side, and they almost looked identical.

(10:53):
You forgot what building, not just what flooror where you parked the car in.
We're wandering through this parking garagelevel, level, level, no car, no car, no car.
And he goes
Mhmm.
Alright.
You got and and and the and the best part isFlying Rich is carrying around his a r 15 with
no
case.
Right?
And what what state was it in?
Downtown Knoxville.
Oh, Knoxville, Tennessee.

(11:14):
Okay.
Yeah.
Is it always in Tennessee?
What?
What's that?

No.
They're supposed to go next year to Dubuque,Iowa.
Oh, Iowa.
That's right.
Yep.
Yep.
We talked about that.

I think.
So Okay.
Cool.
Yeah.
But it
was I'm gonna make one of those shows.
I'm gonna make one.
I promise you guys.
Because I love the GMAT.
He went to the he says, you guys stay here.

(11:36):
Let me go to the other garage.
And he found the other car.
He found the car, but Mhmm.
It was just, you know Yeah.
It was just kinda funny.
I don't think so I know most of or a lot of theguys in our crew know him.
I've never met him.
I did see that video that he put out was itthis weekend?
On
the super super safety.
Yeah.
On the super safety.

(11:56):
And I was like, how is he even retaining allthis information in his brain about a lawyer?
Mhmm.
For those who don't know, Tim Hoffman is thesuper safety.
That's his Mhmm.
That's his design.
And these people with the FRT thing areclaiming it's it's their you know, they can't
they're going after him.

(12:17):
You know?
And it the two of them are nothing alike.
There's nothing saying
But he was saying the way he explained it,think he did a good job in that video.
They kinda like try to go backwards and addsome stuff so that he gets included, which is
which is and then so I think this all came outof the controversy from GOA where those dudes
were going around giving out cease and desist,CNAs.

(12:42):
No.
CNGs.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Goals.
Yeah.
And then Yeah.
That was kinda low down.
So Yeah.
Yeah.
I thought it was interesting.
He said the idea came from his dad because thatwas super safe.
Yeah.
In the video, he was saying that.
It was real he was like, yeah.
It's my dad's idea.
But I guess, you know, he put everythingtogether and did the patents or whatever.
Coulda I I might have missed it.
It was it was rather it was kinda long.

(13:04):
Yeah.
And I might have been watching it I might havebeen watching it late at night, so I might have
Mhmm.
You're right.
He's very young.
How old is that guy?
He looks very young in the video.
He's in his twenties.
Yeah.
He's he's a young guy.
Oh, cool.
But he's just he he's always he's smart.
I mean, it's just, you know, and he and he andhe's good with his hands too.
He makes stuff too.
It's really print stuff.

(13:25):
Does all that stuff.
It's We should well, how come why come thatsound like one of my friends from West
Virginia.

The Hoff was awesome.
You know, very unique.

(14:31):
The Hoff made you look like you were like like,he was bad cop and you're a good cop.

He's a little little
a little a little a little more on fire thanYeah.
I know when they I know when to I know when tobutton my lip, and I don't think he did.
So
Yeah.
Yeah.
And I think I mean, you're one of those oldschool gun guys, but Hoff was, like, from the

(14:55):
real cowboy days of the gun world.
He was older than me.
Yeah.
And he worked he worked in some different I hehe worked in some different situations than me.
So I never
And very wild.
Like
Yeah.
I mean, I've worked for somebody else, only oneother person doing gun stuff, but he worked for
others in bigger places and all that stuff.

(15:16):
Yeah.
And really in the crazy days.
You know?
So, you know, I hear a lot of stories.
You probably heard a lot of those the thestories of the gun guys back in the days.
You know?
So yeah.
Different times.
Yeah.
So let's see.
Well, how was your weekend?
Let's start there.
How was your weekend going?

(15:36):
Saturday Saturday, I went up to the ClandestineTesting Fills Facility, aka the Keller Swamp.
Mhmm.
And it was wet the last time I was up there,and it's even wetter now.
So Mhmm.
I brought along this this guy.
I brought a gun, a a Ruger pistol I got herethat a Mark four Ruger.

(15:58):
Oh, very nice.
What's that?
Where did you get this Mark four Ruger from?
Well, that was that was the free suppressordeal.
I told you about that, didn't
Free suppressor deal.
Okay.
There was a woman who came in the shop.
Mhmm.
Her husband died.
Mhmm.
He had a bunch of guns, suppressor stuff, andhe had Okay.
His will.
He'd given he'd given guns to certain people.

(16:20):
Well, the person that was supposed to get this22 can didn't want it.
Oh, okay.
Because I don't so and she didn't want it.
Mhmm.
So she just wanted to get rid of
it.
Mhmm.
So what she did and I said, but it's still toget it to us is still a $200 tax.
Mhmm.
Mhmm.
So I said, you know, the can is probably notworth $200.
My Right.
Mhmm.
But she says, okay.
Well, I'll pay the tax.

(16:40):
Just you can you can take it.
I'll get it out of my hands.
Okay.
What kinda what kinda can was it?
I think it's a it's a name brand one.
Was it a '22 you're saying though?
'20 2 can?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So okay.
Yeah.
But
along with that 22 came the the Ruger Markfour.
And and that because I had them in the samebox.

(17:02):
And Oh.
And so I acquired the Ruger Mark four.
Yeah.
Let's take a look at that Ruger Mark four.
Let's see how that's probably nice.
Oh, I tell you what.
I took it up there shooting, and this thingwith that can
Yeah.
Maybe I should go full screen on you.
Hold on one second.
Me set Yeah. This
This
We oops.
So we can go
over old high velocity 22, it was quiet.

(17:23):
So Oh, that's very nice.
It's got the gold is that a Volt Quartzantrigger?
That this is a nice setup.
I don't I think it just came with the Ruger.
I don't know if it's custom trigger or not.
I don't know.
Yeah.
The the barrel is fluted from what I could
gold, got some everything.
Yeah.
This is nice.
This is a nice one, Walt.
Very nice.
Yeah.
So with that can, this looks fun to shoot.

(17:44):
So Yeah.
I I tested that out and make sure it wasfunctioning properly.
Yeah.
That's a squirrel gun right there, man.
Oh, yeah.
You get some squirrels.
That motherfucker.
What I'm guns for killing squirrels.
So then I yeah.
And then I tested the
Mhmm.
The six the six shooter.
Mhmm.
And then I also brought Yugoslavian SKS upthere that I'd never I don't think I ever shot

(18:08):
the thing.
And
Okay.
It functioned flawlessly at fulls.
Yeah.
So I think you said you went out there.
You checked.
You saw it was wet.
You did some shots and left.
I shot some guns.
I walked around, looked at the wetness.
And then and and there I mean, I got up therearound eight ish.

(18:29):
Mhmm.
And I and I made a video.
I said, I ain't gonna be up here very long.
I was gonna do some wiring.
I had a added some outlets on the pole sothere's you can plug plugs in outside, but I
wasn't gonna wire in the water.
Mhmm.
Not a good idea.
So and it was kinda squishy and wet.
And it was raining too, kinda light rain thewhole time I was there.

(18:50):
So I popped up the back of the Suburban, usedthat for some cover, did some shooting in
different directions and whatever I just choseto shoot at.
Yeah.
And I I was I was home by 12:30 in theafternoon.
So
Yeah.
I mean, no.
That was that's a long drive.
That's a long drive.
You know?
Yeah.
Yeah.

(19:11):
So I I I I didn't I shoulda I I woke up thatmorning, and I was like, man, I don't feel like
getting up.
I was so comfy.
You know, sometimes you're just so comfy, andyou don't
feel like Yeah.
And I and I got up, and I went, and then pay Iget and I and I get back pay.
He says, see, I told you I should've went.
I was telling because I remember speaking toyou by text before that, and I was like, if it

(19:34):
rains, it's gonna be wet over there, which itdid rain.
There was a lot of rain.
Yeah.
There was a lot of rain.
We lost power here and everything.
The rain was so hard.
So I was gonna cut grass because it but where Icould cut grass the last time I was there Mhmm.
Had standing water, and I couldn't cut thegrass there.
So there was no point in it.
So Mhmm.

(19:55):
Mhmm.
I just came back.
So Sunday, I went to oh, Sunday, what did I do?
Sunday, I went over eventually, went over tothe shop, and, I was helping somebody with his
stuff.
And I think I showed you that picture of thator I mentioned that demilitarized or that
deactivated SKS that I had.
Yeah.
Yeah.

(20:16):
I started I started the process of reactivatingit.
So Okay.
Cool.
I had to I had to do a little welding to fixthe spot that they that they put the weld at.
Mhmm.
And then, then, I've got an I've got adifferent barrel coming and some other parts,
and I'm gonna put it back together and, andbring her back to life.
So So are so is the SKS very valuable when it'sall put back together?

(20:41):
Or
SKSs vary in price.
They're not cheap like they used to be.
Mhmm.
This one, actually, the funny part is this onewas actually made the same year of my birth.
1962.
Yeah.
Oh.
So I watched a video on the Internet, and a guyexplains the the serial numbers for for Chinese

(21:02):
SKSs, and it looks like it was made in the inthe Yurimi creation.
So
but, anyways that's definitely definitely aspecial one.
Yeah.
Condition and make and all that and, you know,and all that kind of stuff.
Mhmm.
I'm gonna shorten the barrel, turn it to acarbine, and or like or they or they they call,

(21:23):
like, a paratrooper, which they never made themfor paratroopers.
They only made them for The US market andcalled them paratroopers.
But Okay.
So, yeah,
I'm gonna back to parachute it.
So
Okay.
Very cool.
Yeah.
We got, like, thirty seconds here.
One of the things I wanna talk about, we'llprobably have to put it over in the next
segment.
I put this in the big, group chat that we have.

(21:46):
I don't know if you saw this video right here.
Oh, that's Jay Leno.
Yeah.
Jay Leno has a brand new tank.
He's got a British I think it's a BritishScorpion?
Scorpion.
Yeah.
Those are those are fun because they're fast.
Yeah.
And it's from my birth year, '72.
There you go.

(22:06):
You know, we wouldn't be able to keep the WhoMoved My Freedom podcast going without the
support of great companies like FranklinArmory.
Franklin Armory provides 100% US made firearmsand awesome binary option triggers.
Their focus and purpose is to provide freedomtools to all Americans, especially those in not
so free states.

(22:27):
So when you're in the market, please considerFranklin Armory.
Alright.
Boom.
We're back here.
Hold on.
Let me take these off.
Okay.
What's up?
What's up?
Just for you just for you viewing audience thatdon't know
Uh-huh.
There's supposed to be a shark a Starshiplaunch in thirty five minutes.
Okay.
So, they're fueling it up, but I don't know ifit's gonna go.

(22:49):
The weather is kinda shitty there, so I don'tknow if it's actually gonna launch.
But Oh.
Not to not to draw anybody away from our lovelypresence.
Right.
But
Yes.
There will be a launch at some point here.
Keep an eye.
I'm sure we'll do because it's gonna happenwhile we're doing the show.
Right?
So we'll try to

(23:10):
Oh, you wanna say something else?
What's up?
Already talked about this.
Did we talk about this already?
I don't know what that is.
And by the way, Jade Gru says whatever happenedto cans and SBR is getting off the NFA due to
it now being zero tax on them?
So there's a couple of questions in
mean I mean, to be honest with you, when thathappens in January

(23:31):
Mhmm.
Every suppressor I own, every SBR that I thatI've built that I that I just built to take,
like, to the shot show and show off are allcoming off my I'm all paper and all to me.
So
Right.
I've so I think there's a couple of thingsgoing on there.
So, yeah, they so they're not off the NFA yet.

(23:54):
No.
But they will they will go to a zero tax stamp.
And Right.
If it's zero tax stamp, it might as well comeoff the NFA.
So I agree.
Well, that's the lawsuit that's pending that'sbeen filed.
If there's no tax if there's no moneycollected, there's no tax.
Yeah.
There's no point.
Be right.
Right.

(24:14):
And and and yes.
So that we'll see what happens with all that.
So What is this beauty okay.
Now I get gotta go back to full screen.
Hold on one second.
Hold on.
Let me take off the tank thing.
Maybe we'll we'll talk about the Jay Leno'stank thing here in a second.
What is this beauty of this gun?
This an 1860 what do you say it called?
Eighteen sixty army.

(24:34):
Mhmm.
They were made by Colt.
Mhmm.
The the originals.
This one here is technically, it was sold byColt, but this is, like, a third gen of this
gun.
So they weren't made by Colt.
They were assembled by the the own the currentowner and his father of Henry Arms.

(24:55):
Uh-huh.
Wait.
Colt.
Okay.
Of Henry firearms that makes Yeah.
All okay.
Yeah.
The I I can't I can't I can't I his Italianname is not coming to the top of my
Anthony Emperado?
What's that?
I think it's Imparato.
Anthony I believe it's Anthony Imparato.
Yeah.

(25:16):
Mhmm.
At the time, it was him and his dad.
I guess his dad's probably not around anymore.
But Mhmm.
So they assembled these four colt in theirfactory, and they were sold as, like,
reproduction Colts.
Oh, okay.
I'm sorry.
What did what did I say?
I said Anthony Emperado.
Anthony Emperado.
Yeah.
That's the guy.
Yeah.
Right.

(25:36):
Mhmm.
So this one
So this this okay.
So the was this the one that we were talkingabout?
I think we were texting over this thing because
I might have.
Yes.
There's another one that I there's another onethat I have.
Okay.
This came about as someone a friend of hisfriend's mother

(25:56):
Mhmm.
Brother passed away, and these were the gunsthat some of the guns this guy had.
Mhmm.
And there's another one.
There's a a Colt Navy that's that's actually anearlier generation that was actually made by
Colt.
And, that's that's gonna go up.
That's for sale too, but she's probably gonnatake it out to the auction.

(26:16):
Yeah.
So This is a beautiful
one's unfired this one's unfired for now untilwe get together and shoot some black powder,
and I'm gonna
close the gaps.
Okay.
Nice.
Oh, I think the other one the other one that wewere talking about, you were saying that it's
that's probably just good for, like, a displaycase kinda thing.
So it's not not a good idea to, you know, to,like, shoot it because you know?

(26:40):
Yeah.
No.
It's got a a powder horn.
Mean, a powder flask and
a Mhmm.
And a fancier case and all that stuff.
Yeah.
So so you don't wanna mess up so if you shootthat one, you'll mess up the value.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That
one.
Technically, this
one, do a little bit too, but I don't.
I bought it to shoot it.
So Oh, that that one you have right there looksbeautiful, man.
It's gorgeous.
Oh, it's nice.

(27:00):
It's yeah.
It's well it's well made.
Yeah.

Mhmm.
Okay.
We can shoot it.
Alright.

Gotta take care of you know, the chill thechildren are the future.
And Wu Tang Chilling.
The children.
Yes.
And we are the world.
Yeah.
We are the world.
We are so corny.
Yeah.
That was the biggest all all these all these,like, concert they had and all this stuff, that

(29:15):
was all money scam.
That's all.
Yeah.
I don't know where that money went to, but Iremember those days.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Those are that's we're talking about theeighties, Dirk.
I don't know when you were born exactly.
But probably
a little I was a little I mean, I was born inthe eighties, but
Mhmm.
I wouldn't consider myself a true eightiesbaby.
I was a nineties baby.
Nineties baby.
Okay.

(29:35):
Yeah.
Alright.
I was I was still born in the, you know, latemid to late eighties, but
Mhmm.
I was a true knights kid.
You know?
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
I mean, I was born in the seventies, but theeighties is what because when you're a little
kid, you have no real super concept of what'sgoing on.
I'm yeah.
I remember I remember things or whatever fromthe seventies and traveling and stuff like

(29:58):
that.
But I grew up in America in the eighties in NewYork City.
Yeah.
So, yeah, definitely, I would say I'm, like, aeighties baby because I was, you know, or yeah.
I was living in the eighties, man.
I remember that we are the world nonsense.
Oh, yeah.
I I mean, even even me as a kid growing up inthe nineties in school in the nineties, I

(30:20):
remember the We Are The World that we used toliterally, like, get in a a circle and, like,
do the whole thing and sing it, like, hands,rocking back and forth.
You know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
What's what's that song that what is the songor the was it Grease that John Travolta did

(30:42):
with damn it.
I'm gonna have to look this up.
Remember the show the movie Grease?
Do you guys remember?
Oh, yeah.
The movie Grease.
Who was in that movie?
I think it was John Travolta.
Right?
John Travolta.
Yeah.
That was Daniel Bruce.
What's her
face is dead now?
Of
them.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay.
Here we go.
So this movie, Grease, I remember this and I'lltell you why.

(31:03):
This you just jogged my memory on thisparticular thing.
So the movie Grease, if you guys Let me see ifI can get this to to show up here.
But this is the poster for Grease.
Right?
And then Yeah.
This is like a little a little clip fromGreece.
So the reason why I say all of that, because Iremember when did this come out?
I think it says here 1978.

(31:24):
Yes.
1978.
I remember being in school in England in 1978and everyone in the playground singing the
songs from Greece and acting like we were inGreece.
Oh, dude.
I I remember even as a kid in The in The US inthe eighties, like, I could still sing almost
every song of Grease.

(31:46):
Wow.
Yeah.
Is that weird?
No.
It's not weird.
But I was making fun of there's this there'sthis thing on Netflix.
I'm gonna have to look it up.
But it's a k pop, like, what is this?
There's a k pop show on Netflix that is one ofthe most streamed movies ever.

(32:08):
K pop demon hunters?
K pop demon hunters.
And I remember making was just telling Lolaabout that, making fun of how the kids like,
it's so popular on Netflix, Walt.
This this let me see if I can show you here.
So it's this thing called k pop demon hunterson Netflix.
One of the biggest, most streamed ever.

(32:30):
Yeah.
Do you see that?
You can you can keep the k pop stuff.
Yeah.
But this is how much it's been streamed.
Netflix is gonna play it in movie theaters sokids could go to the movie theaters and sing
along to all the songs.
Yeah.
And it's dude, I'll tell you what, man.
Like, as someone that probably takes theirreligion a little bit more seriously than most

(32:55):
do Mhmm.
There's definitely some and I'm not trying to,like, sound any kind of way.
I'm just saying that, you know Mhmm.
A lot of people are casual Christians.
You know?
Okay.
And and there's some things in there that are Iwould guess that that some of the songs were
written by somebody that is familiar withChristianity and probably left it and is

(33:22):
writing some things that are intentionallyputting undertones in the music to offend.
What are
talking in in k pop?
Or
In k pop demon hunters.
So okay.
First off, you know
Mhmm.
This whole thing, like, this whole thing aboutdemons.
Right?
The this I mean, the the demons, you know, areare real.

(33:46):
Right?
That that that's a conversation.
Mhmm.
A.
But b
Do you believe demons are real?
I mean, I I wouldn't cons I don't go to church.
I believe in God, and I pray and meditate andall that kind of stuff all the time.
I personally believe that there are such thingsas demons in Yeah.
Lots of different ways.
Mhmm.
I I believe that.

(34:07):
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
Maybe not in the same way that everyone may seeit as like but, yes, 100%, I believe in demons.
I believe in the devil.
You know, I believe in hell.
I believe in heaven.
But if you and I don't know.
Like, if you play this song or or on another,you know, occasion, listen to it.

(34:29):
Mhmm.
It's a song called I'll Be Your Idol.
Mhmm.
It is literally talking about idolatry anddemons and and the the phraseology that they
use and terminology that they use is likebecause a lot goes into building lyrics.
Right?
Like, it we're talking, like, like, multi, youknow, multisyllable rhyming, like, a lot of

(34:58):
effort that went into things to, you know,specifically talk about idolatry and how, you
know, like, guy that's singing the song will beyour idol and all that.
And it's saying, like, forget the scriptures.
Forget all that.
Like, I'll be your idol.
Oh, it says that in the song.
I watched the movie.
It wasn't a bad movie.

(35:18):
But yeah.
Yeah.
It's good.
But it's it's all about, like, the it's allabout the the slight stuff, the undertones, the
Mhmm.
The stuff that, you know, you don't reallynotice, but it gets kind of installed in your
subconsciously.
That's interesting because in Korean culture, Ithink that they also tend to be very religious
people.

(35:39):
But, obviously, the movie does talk aboutdemons and stuff like that.
I don't wanna ruin it for anyone, but And Ithink you have to be careful with all those
things because even being creative, you have tobe very careful what you create because in a
way, you're putting real things into the world,whether or not you're making something real.

(36:01):
So what I mean by that is like in I'm into hiphop, and there's a lot so Biggie Smalls, for
example, made music talking about his death andit happened.
Same thing.
Tupac made music talking about his death.
I think you have to be careful being verynegative in your creativity that you put out
into the world because in a way in a way,they're like spells, And you put negative

(36:24):
things into the world, and those things couldcome back.
Even when you put those negative things outagainst other people, not necessarily yourself,
the way that those kinds of things work is thatthey could come back and destroy you.
Always thought about that.
Like, look at all, like, the hip hop songs thatwere, like, written about suicide.
Right?
Like, Biggie had a famous one.

(36:47):
And Mhmm.
It just all it always made me think, like, man,I wonder if the these types of things encourage
people to Yeah.
You know, commit suicide.
You know?
Or at least, you know, prolong their strugglemaybe.
Some something like that.
I don't know.
You have to be very careful with thenegativity.
I mean and that's been in music and art for along time.

(37:11):
It's not just like current music.
It's been out there for a while.
But even most recently, this would be anotherthing that Walter is not super into.
But did you ever hear of Lil Nas X Walter?
You ever heard of that guy?
Do you know who that rapper is, Walt?
I think he's Little what?
Little Lil Lil Nas X.

(37:33):
No.
I don't know.
He's a rapper that came out a few years ago,and he did a country song.
So he's like a black rapper.
He did a country song.
And Well,
I'm gonna take my horse to the
old town.
Yeah.
You probably heard it, Walt.
You heard that song.
But the weird thing about that kid is not likeright after he became famous, he became like a

(37:53):
devil.
Like, he he said, he worshiped the devil andall that and made I I think he One, he was gay.
That's, you know, whatever.
That's one thing on its own.
But he did a music video, for example, where hewas like, what is it what is it called?
He was like dancing with the devil in this, inthis music video, you know.

(38:16):
Like a
pentagrams and
Yeah.
Like a chick would in a strip club.
He was basically dancing with the devil.
And recently, they found that guy on thestreets of LA drugged out of his mind walking
around naked.
I didn't know that.
Yeah.
That was in that was in the news.
I didn't bring it up because, you know, it'smostly I stopped once once I saw what he was

(38:39):
really all about, I was like
Yeah.
Or what he said he was about or whatever.
Sometimes people say they're about things justso they can, you know, get famous or whatever,
but I don't think you should ever play aroundwith that kind of stuff.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
You you open yourself to
So let me just and and so that's bad juju then.
Right?
Bad juju.

(38:59):
Pretty much that's what Dark and I are saying,I think.
I think that's what don't wanna
Bad juju, Buono.
It Bad juju.
Is.
It's bad juju.
I'll tell you straight up.
Like Yeah.
Like, going back to where we at with with time?
Yeah.
We're Going back to,
like, when
I was a kid, like, even though I was in, like,a, you know, suburban urban area, it wasn't a,

(39:22):
like, super bad area or anything, but, youknow, all of us were influenced by, like, the
urban scene.
And Mhmm.
I definitely was influenced by music that wasabout hustling, you know, drug related stuff,

(39:42):
like, face in the bag always.
Like, that that definitely had an impact on onme and not not just, like, my circle of
friends, like, my, like, neighborhood, city,like, county.
Like, everyone was kinda impacted by by thatinfluenced by that, I'd say.
Mhmm.
And I I I started living that life for realjust off of, like, listening to it first.

(40:08):
You know?
Mhmm.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was trying to pull up let me see.
Anyway, I don't wanna get too deep into that.
That's that's the way I feel about yeah.
Listen, it's not worth it to be famous to dothese things, but I think some people, they
really do believe this, you know.
But in order to become a like, when you makeyourself a sacrifice for Hollywood, don't

(40:33):
forget the sacrifice part of that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The sacrificial lamb does get slaughtered.
Just remember that.
So I would assume that you've probably seenthat happen more than once, with your
connection to people in the entertainmentindustry?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I've seen it happen a few times.

(40:54):
You know, people attempt to I always tellpeople that you should never especially a man,
but no one out there, you should never bewilling to do anything for money.
Mhmm.
You know, there's people who say, I'll do I'lldo anything for for money.
I don't believe in that.
Should never be willing to do anything formoney, you know.
And I remember having this conversation with myson one time, and I was like, listen.

(41:18):
I understand why there's women out there whobecome strippers and all that kind of stuff.
I get it.
But as a man, a man should never be willing todo that, and a man should never be willing to
do anything for money.
He was like, well, that's kinda messed up foryou to say that.
But a man more than anyone out there has to beaware of the limits and the lines that he

(41:38):
should not cross.
Yeah.
So Yeah.
I have similar rules.
Never be willing to compromise on integrity andmorals for money.
Like, just to try to get ahead or try to, youknow, hit the come up.
You know?
I Mhmm.
I had already done so much compromising, youknow, like, not doing the right thing or doing

(42:02):
not good stuff for money as a kid.
So, you know, luckily, I learned learned frommy mistakes.
Yeah.
I think we all make mistakes and mess up.
The the your your intention is where a lot ofthings come from.
And then when you make mistakes, do yourecognize you made a mistake and do you correct
it and do you work on being a better person?

(42:23):
I think what's it is what's really important.
Everyone messes up and makes mistakes.
We're gonna take a break.
We're gonna come right back.

(43:08):
We are gonna talk about definition knives here.
I wanted to show you here, let me take let mechange this screen.
You probably did not get a chance to see this.
Boom.
This is the logo.
Oh, hamster.
Yeah.
So check it out.
There you go.

Plus, I know you like suits.
You're well, you're my suit expert at thispoint.
I'm a screw man.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know shit about suits.
And I figured we were talking about knives, sothere you go.
And let me see.
Did Walter come back in?
I'm back.
Yeah.
And I actually have an animated one of thisversion of this that I was showing people out

(43:54):
there.
Let me see if I can get it to come along.
I had to go grab something.
Yeah.
So we're gonna be let me see here.
Okay.
Here we go.
Here.
I'll show you the animated one, Dirk.
Check that out.
Dude.
That's trippy.
That's crazy.
I like how you got the Nepalese Gurkha Kukri upin there.

(44:15):
Yeah.
I figured there'll be some knife talk tonight.
Some knife talk.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I I I love I love knives.
And I I still like, even right now, like, youknow, sometimes we go through phases where,
like, I'm just not in a buying stuff phaseright now.
I'm in a sending stuff out, getting rid ofstuff.

(44:37):
I was still looking at knives and prices ofknives and following auctions.
And Mhmm.
I'm just
I'm Knives are knives are coming out.
Knives are coming out.
Walter is gonna have several kookeries comingout.
Well, so let's start let's start there's mydefinition knife.
I only have one so far.
So there's my definition knife right there.
Very nice knife.

(44:57):
I carry it over.
Yeah.
Is this the same knife?
Probably.
It's actually different.
It it yep.
It is correct.
So we have Hank has the Boyd.
The Boyd is the one that was named in honor ofmy dad.
That's it's they're both OD Green, but that's,d two, you know, d two tool steel satin,

(45:20):
appointments, you know, hardware.
And, Walt has the birdshot, which is named inhonor of the tactical turkeys, which is an
eight c r 13 m o v steel with, also satinhardware as well.
So they're similar different steels, slightlydifferent blade profile even though they're
both, like, drop point blades.

(45:40):
Oh, very cool.
Okay.
Alright.
And I guess we should ask here while we'retalking about definition knives because I know
you guys Walter and I were just talking aboutthe GOA goals, the goals event.
So you guys went there, and you had a booth andeverything.
How was it?
Dude, it was crazy.
We were we were literally selling out of stufflike that.

(46:03):
That was, that was pretty crazy.
And just to, I think, have that level of, like,the shift in brand awareness was was a big a
big thing.
And, even though it it it did go well and wedid sell a bunch of stuff and we were, like,
getting ready to start selling out of stuff, itwas, I think, more of an investment in the

(46:28):
future of, like, hey.
This is this is feeding into, like, the futureof what the the brand is gonna become and
evolve into.
So it was good.
It was a good short term move and a good longterm move.
Alright.
Sweet.
Yeah.
I'm proud of you guys, man.
If I would've made it to the show, I would'veprobably spent most of the show just hanging
out with you guys in the booth.
Dude, that's what a lot of people did,actually.

(46:50):
Like, viewers literally came from all over thecountry, and we had a couple couches set up in
the booth.
And they were just, like, sitting there hangingout the whole time, which it, like I feel like
that attracted more people because we weren'tjust an empty booth.
You know?
Mhmm.
So it was it was cool.
Yeah.
That's what I love doing at the shows.
Go, Walt.
No.
I was gonna say, this is a SHOT Show memoryhere.

(47:12):
My friend Mike Remo, Anzio Ironworks, when hewhen he did the shot show, he would bring this
little it was like a fake campfire with thelittle things that go like this.
Mhmm.
And basically, everybody would sit around thethe chairs around the campfire in his booth.
Yeah.
It looks like you're sitting around a campfire.
Yeah.
That's like a paper mache thing that blows, butthere's a light there, and it makes it look

(47:35):
like flames.
It's got little little foil pieces and a light,and it looks like a little fire going in.
You know?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's cool.
Yeah.
That's the fun part of the shows.
I love to go to the shows just to hang out withpeople, you know Yeah.
And meet people.
So no.
That's very true.
The the relations aspect of it.
Like because, honestly, all the information, assoon as it as soon as it drops, is available,

(47:59):
like, on the Internet.
Everyone's dropping videos.
It it's it's really, like, the people, therelationships, and also forging, you know, new
relationships and
Right.
Right.
Yeah.
Deepening relationships.
That's that's really the reason of, like, whyI, you know, enjoy going to events like that.

(48:20):
But, you know, it's just it's
And by the way, so Definition Knives, if youwanna explain to the people, it's you and who
doing Definition Knives?
That's it.
Just me.
I'm just kidding.
It's, it's me Flying Rich.
I know why I'm asking you because I see FlyingRich in the chat right now.
Of course.
You you I was gonna see how long we

(48:40):
could go with him.
Yeah.
He's in the chat.
He goes, he says he's watching SpaceX, and hegoes, do we talk do we mention knives?
So Of course.
Yeah.
So those out there that that don't know, Richand I were just a bunch of silly YouTubers
Mhmm. That
That wanted to
know.
I'm gonna go full screen on you.

(49:01):
Hold on.
Because I wanna show off the knives.
So oh, hold on.
Went to the wrong one.
My bad.
Bam.
Hey, Rich.
Go
ahead.
So Rich and I were like, you know what?
We want to actually, you know what?
I'll you want me to go through the whole storyreal quick?
Yeah.
Kinda Go
for it.
Yeah.
Mhmm.
So, basically, I've always been a knife guy.
You know, Rich enjoys knives for theutilitarian aspect.

(49:24):
But, at the time, I was really frustrated by aparticular brand of knives and how expensive
they have become, especially knives that have aparticular locking mechanism similar to that.
So I was like, you know what?
Let me find some manufacturers, that, you know,could do, like, a small run of knives just for

(49:47):
us.
So, I I took probably, like, nearly two monthsfinding a manufacturer.
I finally did that had really good products,and we were able to start, you know, developing
our own stuff.
And once I looked at the price of, like, whatit would be to, you know, get 10 knives or 15

(50:07):
knives, it was like, you know, well, let's ask.
Like, what would it be to get 20 knives or 3050?
And all of a sudden, it was like, man, we couldactually do this as a service to people that
are are looking for the same style of knivesthat don't wanna pay a 150, 250, 300 plus
dollars on a knife.
So we we just kinda started definition knivesbased on really high quality knives that are,

(50:35):
you know, super affordable.
All of our knives are always gonna be under a$100.
And, currently, all of our knives are 59 to $79with free shipping.
So Very cool.
We're trying to make make things that aretypically more cost prohibitive, more available
for the average guy out there.
Yeah.
What Walt, what was your, question or commentyou wanted to make?

(51:01):
I don't well, I don't really have one.
I mean, I have suggestion.
Oh, suggestions.
Probably heard you heard about that already.
Right?
What's your suggestion?
Oh, okay.
We've had a few actually.
It's it's rather dainty.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's actually so there's
I mean, this one is pretty tough right here.

(51:23):
But
No.
There's these are these are these are toughmotherfuckers here.
Mhmm.
But the Yeah.
The the clip on this guy is a little dainty.
So Oh.
Yeah.
It Mhmm.
It's only come up a few times, so I think it'sactually, like because of the scale of, like,
how many they're doing, I think some of themare more flawed than others or more noticeable

(51:43):
than others.
And but, also, nothing sucks more than having aknife that you really like that you can't use.
Right?
I actually have, like, a 179, Cobra Tech overthere, but the pocket clip on it sucks, it's,
like, floppy.
So it, you know, I can't really use it, so itkinda sucks.

(52:06):
But what what I did is I reached out to themanufacturers and purchased a whole bunch of
hardware, and then they sent it, And it was allhardware for different knives that we didn't
even have yet.
So I'm like, dude, really?
So we were gonna be able to give replacementhardware out to everyone that, you know, had an
issue.
It was only a handful of people.

(52:28):
For the next run of Copilots, we're gonna haveto make a change to that area.
There's two areas.
It's gotta be thicker.
Yeah.
And and, also, look at the, point on theCopilot where the screws, meet.
It's super, super thin in there.
So if people start to, like, rebend it andstuff, they they could actually snap.

(52:51):
So Okay.
It's actually only come up three or four times,but it has come up.
So Mhmm.
You know, we're gonna actively make changes.
Yeah.
I think that's, that's definitely a thingbecause eventually, you know, if your your clip
starts to get wobbly or whatever there, thenyou're not Well, I see. I know I
I know I have some knives like that.
Yeah.
It's in your pocket.

(53:11):
And if you're if you're an active person andyou're you're actually taking it in and out
and, you know, you're doing things, and, youknow, if you're a dainty type and you just wear
it, you know, it's not it's not well Yeah.
You might not ever do it, but I think it got Ithink it got tweaked a little bit going in and
out of my pocket.
So Yeah.
If a knife's going in your pocket, it's gonnaget it should be getting used.

(53:33):
By the way, let me get this comment in fromRich.
Rich says, all the knives are under a $100except for the ones over a $100.
So and Yeah.
I don't have any yet.
Yeah.
And Chris b says, in my honest opinion,Microtech overrated.
A lot of the knives I'm gonna show are fromMicrotech, but I understand, Microtech's like

(53:57):
was kicking up getting very expensive.
Here's what I was gonna say about that commentyou were making, Walt.
I think you're right, what you're saying aboutthe clip.
One of
the things This guy is strong like bull.
This guy is strong like bull.
Yeah.
This one's This pretty one's pretty good too.
The thing I found like, you know, it's almostlike guns.
Right?
And I have this conversation with peoplebecause I walk around with a bunch of equipment

(54:18):
in my pocket.
Right?
I walk around with a lot of stuff.
But a lot of people want their pockets to belightweight, have nothing in it or, you know So
if you don't carry the knife, then you won'tuse it.
If you carry it, you probably use it.
So I think a big a big factor also is lightweightedness of what's going on in your pocket.
Mhmm.

(54:39):
Yeah.
That's also the one you got is is one of theheavier ones.
The so, like, each one, they're all kindautilitarian, like, based.
Right?
They're they're not, like, fighting times or oranything.
Like, the first couple launches were all kinda,like, focused around utilitarian type of EDC

(54:59):
drop point, like, as standard and dry as knivescan get, but very functional.
But, the one that you have is the, hardest.
So out of all the hardness tests on all the theknives that we got, the d two is the hardest
blade.
It's 58 or higher on the on the Rockwell test.

(55:21):
It's the thickest blade, and it is the moststout liner.
So that is one of the heavier
Are you talking about mine?
Yes.
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
And then but Yeah.
I wasn't specifically talking about you when Isaid that, by the way.
I think like, I see a lot of people Yeah.
They show me their knives, and they have it indrawers or in the car or like that.

(55:43):
I'm like, why isn't that knife in your pocket?
And the number one reason they say to me is theweight.
So, yeah.
I mean, I understand what you're saying.
I probably got a lot lighter knives than this,but, you know, I'm used to carrying heavier
things.
Like, we were talking about the Microtechs.
Look, Microtech.
Yep.
You know, now here's the other factor I wasgonna say about knives.

(56:03):
Like, this is my mic Microtech.
I don't know what the hell it is.
This is the Mandalorian one that came out.
Yeah.
That's the Mandalorian.
Yep.
Yeah.
That's the I forgot what they call it.
It's like the ASP or WASP or something.
And that's that's true.
Let me see if it's on it.
Call
it the one this is the Stitch.

(56:24):
I also I actually got rid of the, I had a DiracDelta and a oh, I had a Combat Truden Truden
Truden.
I got a MSI and Coke gun.
Yeah.
Oh, you Here's another Microtech I have righthere.
Look at this.

(56:45):
Oh, nice.
I think Babyface traded, what did you do youremember what he traded?
Well, was it an AK or something?
That's how expensive this
They are.
That's good.
That's the
It was
like an AK.
Yeah.
It was like an AK and something else.
There was some trade that Babyface did, andthat's how I wound up getting this knife as

(57:05):
part of it.
Pat Pat Patrick went through his, Microtechfetish
Oh, yes.
Where he couldn't do anything except Microtech.
Yeah.
So Yeah.
That's a really good knife right there.
The the problem, if I may, even okay.
This is a $500, OTF.
Okay?
Okay.
This is by Harris Knives.
Harris Knives.
And Let me go full

(57:26):
screen on you here in a second, but go for it.
Right.
So similar to Microtech, they are very, very,very high end.
You know?
Like, the amount of, time, attention,machining.
They only use super steels, and they're they'revery, very
high quality. I love a Tanto.
quality.
I love a Tanto.

(57:47):
That's cool.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
It's a very, very cool blade.
Mhmm.
But it's it's got that, like, apocalypticstyle.
And and Microtech does apocalyptic style too.
Right?
But the issue with, with OTFs For for normal,like, utility type stuff, you'll never have an
issue.
But if you really needed to use the knife, ifyou have you ever taken an OTF apart?

(58:12):
Babyface has done it.
Walter is monitoring the launch, by the way.
So what launch about to happen, Walt?
There's a hold.
There's a
thirty seconds.
Oh, thirty second hold.
Okay.
Let's see how long that goes.
So, no, I've not taken them apart.
Babyface can do it, but typically and by theway, I just wanna say this.
I'm not trying to knock any kind of knifecompany, not just because is one of our very

(58:34):
good friends.
He has a knife.
I'm not trying to knock anyone.
We're just trying to have a knife conversationjust in case this becomes a thing.
But yeah.
They're very difficult if you take them apartto put back together unless you have special
tools.
All all of these conversations is actually howwe kinda, like, you know, started doing this.
So it's Mhmm.
Like, there's never any offense or anythinglike that.

(58:56):
Mhmm.
But the like, just kind of for, like,awareness, the the thing that that kinda kept
me from carrying all my OTS, because I probablygot, like, a dozen or more, is that if you take
them apart, it's got it's got a spring systemwhere there's two active springs, obviously, to
shoot out and then to bring it back home.

(59:18):
Right?
And the the locking system, the way that itworks, there's a a lug on the underside of this
blade underneath inside the housing.
Right?
Well, the thing that locks this blade in placeis, two little think of, like, you know, how,

(59:38):
like, you play a game of pinball.
They
got those
two little things at
the bottom.
Mhmm.
Mhmm.
So they're basically two little flappers thatthat hold the blade in place against the
against the piece that has the two activesprings, pushing and pulling against it.
So if you really needed to apply, like, a bunchof pressure to, you know

(59:59):
To, like, to, like, use it as a pry bar orsomething?
Yeah.
Or even, like, to, you know, baton through,like, some wood or, you know, or even if, like,
you had to use it in a self defense situationand hit bone or something like that, it could
fail.
Or or worse, if it bent the, the little tabs,then it it could, you know, be locked open or

(01:00:25):
closed something like that.
But there's, in almost, I'd say, like, 90 pluspercent of of all situations, OTFs are gonna be
totally fine with, like, daily, you know, dailystuff.
You know?
Someone wants Walter to show a CRKT, Walt?
Green knife that you put up?

(01:00:46):
Show what?
Yeah.
So let me see.
I think it's Chris b saying that you showed aCRKT.
Was that okay.
Was it Dark that was showing it, or was itWalt?
I'm not sure.
I think was me.
Yeah.
Because Walt was showing a green definitionknives knife
Yes.
Went just now.
So
This this is a CRKT.

(01:01:07):
I don't know.
Maybe I held up another one, but I'll also I'llsay this.
Mhmm.
If, if you look very carefully at the, thehardware of our knives, you'll see that, it
bears much similarity to about 60% of CRKTs,Kershaw's, Smith and Wesson's, and other

(01:01:29):
Okay.
Yes.
It's almost like they're made in the samefactory.
Ah.
Ah, okay.
Literally.
By the way, I've got more this is the thing Iwas gonna say to you.
So here's another, Microtech.
I have quite a few Microtechs here, believe itor not.
Nice.
This this one's actually dirty right here.
And then here's one that's got, like, the logoof the podcast all over it.

(01:01:56):
So
Oh, is that is that the the matching one thatLola lost?
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wow.
Now, here's the problem when you mention lost.
This is my problem with really expensive kniveslike Taken.
These are yeah.
Lost, taken.
This is why I have, you know, some really niceknives like this and they stay right in my

(01:02:18):
house and don't go anywhere because I'm alwaysworried about losing them.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I set You know?
I set two of my MicroTouch free.
They're out roaming the world somewhere.
Yeah.
That just hurt.
Yeah.
I'll tell you what.
So if if you love, OTFs, right

(01:02:38):
Mhmm.
But, you know, don't wanna lose a three, four,five, six, some are even $700 plus.
Yeah.
There is a great company out there that sellsOTFs that are not crazy expensive.
Mhmm.
TAC knives.
And TAC knives, they're actually they're notjust getting, like, you know, crap.

(01:03:01):
manufacturers like Safety Harbor Firearms.
SHF is a quintessential family owned smallbusiness totally representative of the American
dream.
Safety Harbor Firearms is a Florida basedmanufacturer of the compact entry stock and the

(01:03:22):
SHTF 50 upper for an AR 15 lower.
Also, SHF happily delivers on your Sten gunparts needs.
So don't forget to check out stenparts.com andsafetyharborfirearms.com.
Alright.
Sorry about that.
I I heard the ding, but I didn't pay attention.
What were you saying, Darc?
And Walt's I'm sorry.

(01:03:43):
Walt's saying that the mission got scrubbed.
Right?
Flight?
Scrubbed launch.
Yeah.
Okay.
Oh, completely scrubbed.
Is this the one that was supposed to be up,like, yesterday or last night or something?
Yeah.
And it got and it got scrubbed too.
Dang.
Okay.
Well, at least I didn't miss it.
Yeah.
No.
You didn't didn't miss it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Very common very common stuff to happen.

(01:04:04):
Was it weather related or something or justYeah.
The weather's kinda poopy out there like it ishere.
Oh, okay.
Kinda overcast and cloudy.
Yeah.
Okay.
Alright.
Makes sense.
Yeah.
So I was just saying basically that, like, toto have a a knife that it's like, okay.
Here's a good example.
So this knife right here is a Microtech Stitch.

(01:04:27):
This is like MSRP is, like, $495.
You can get them for less.
Right?
But
Mhmm.
Yeah.
The the usual price tag is, like, $4.95, andit's a beast too.
Like, it's it's you know Microtechs.
They're they're
worth Oh, micro yeah.
Microtechs, they are expensive, but they areyou get your money's worth.

(01:04:49):
It just hurts like a son of a gun when you loseit.
Yes.
Felt like I felt like
I lost my best friends when I
lost Oh, yeah.
When Lola got hers taken at the airport, andthey wouldn't even let her go, because I think
Patrick had dropped her off at the airport, andhe was still there.
Because Patrick was like, I'll pick it up.
You know, just come out and bring it.
They wouldn't let her do it.

(01:05:09):
Man, she's still mad.
You know why?
Mad about that.
Because they literally them.
They resell them.
You can find them for sale online all the timeand
The guy who took it didn't even make a reportbecause when she got back, she went to to file
a report for it and they the guy never loggedit in.
He just kept it.
He snatched that for sure.

(01:05:30):
For sure.
I mean, that's that's a several $100 come up,you know?
Yeah.
But, like, I if I lost that freaking $500stitch or this $500 Heretic Yeah.
You're be mad.
Whatever whatever this cost is the reason why Idon't take it anywhere even though it's a nice
little badass little cool little knife to have.

(01:05:50):
Yeah.
It just comes out on podcasts.
Yeah.
Those are $300.
You know?
Those those are not cheap.
They're Yeah.
And they're great knives.
But, like, this company, Tac Knives, and it'sit's funny because, like, I I people always get
weird.
Like, but you have a knife company.
You plug in other knife companies.
It's like, yeah.
I you know, I'm not Mhmm.

(01:06:12):
I don't I'm not, like, delusional to think thatwe're the only knife company that exists.
You know?
And we're two little guys anyway.
But, TacKnives is doing a really good job ofnot just taking clones, painting them, lasering
them, and then selling them for 75 times whatthey get them for.
They're actually designing, developing, youknow, doing t and e on them, you know,

(01:06:36):
upgrading them.
Like, they're doing a really good job, andthese are, like, anywhere from their cheapest
ones are, like, $49 to, like, $1.99 dependingon the quality.
This one was, like, $1.19.
And if you use code dark, you get 20% off.
And this is, this is a good a good solid knife.

(01:06:57):
And if you if you lose it, you lose a $100,120bucks as opposed to $3.04, $500.
You know?
It's important to get, like, the, high point ofa knife.
You know?
So it's a a good knife that works, but you canyeet it.
That's where the yeet cannon came from.
You could You
can yeet it if you need it.
Yeah.
You can yeet it.
Are we gonna get crazy and start showing someknives?

(01:07:19):
I know Walter's ready.
Walter's ready to show.
I mean, I I could show what, what I
was Let's let's yeah.
Let's let Walter do some showing here becausehe was What what?
Yeah.
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
You I'm gonna go to Walter first.
Walt, what you got?
What you got?
Qualifies?
Is that any knife qualify?
Yeah.
Anything.
Any knife you wanna show.
Any knife.
Okay.
So anybody's any

(01:07:39):
any people out there know This is a buttscraper.
Who so what is this one?
It's basically like a folding bayonet.
I mean, a folding machete.
Ah.
It was like a I believe it was like an aircruise survival knife or blade.
This particular one was a Japanese copy, whichis actually when you know, Japan, the cheap

(01:08:03):
stuff from Japan.
Mhmm.
Well, this stuff is act this one's actually agood quality.
And I have an English one, which was theoriginal one
Mhmm.
With the Japanese copy.
Oh, crap.
There's
Bunch of knives hitting the ground.
Yeah.
There we go.
This is this is the English version thatactually has, this is made in England.

(01:08:23):
Has the proper cover over the blade.
Okay.
Slice your thing.
Anyways, yeah, like, military air crew kind of
So what would the air crew use this for?
To, like, cut out of the bush if they werelet's say, they
When you crash.
Like, you crash
a crash.
And then in the bush, and you need to maybedispatch the enemy properly and stuff like
that.

(01:08:43):
Okay.
Okay.
That kind of thing.
Yeah.
Oh, very cool.
Let me see.
I don't know if Dark Dark, can you hear us?
I can hear you.
Yeah.
Okay.
So Night Train says ask Dark if he has a CRKTprovoke.
I don't have a provoke, but I have a three dprinted version of the provoke.

(01:09:08):
So the Okay.
The provoke is a crazy knife.
I'll, when it's my turn, I'll I'll I'll talkall about it.
Yeah.
And, Walt, did you have another one you wantedto show?
Oh, well, another bay knife slash bayonet slash
Yeah.
Slash got let's see.
What you got?
This is a supposed to be a Chinese type 81rifle bayonet.

(01:09:31):
Oh, this looks
good.
Thing is nasty.
This thing is nasty sharp.
I mean
Yeah.
The Chinese the Chinese theory is don't wasteammo.
Poke them if you can.
Yeah.
I like how it has blood veins or whatever theycall the the you know?
A blood groove?
Yeah.
Well, that's how you could tell.

(01:09:53):
That's a piece of work.
A piece of work.
And then let me see what's this other one.
Someone's asking.
Night Train says, I have my share of Spydercos.
I have some Spydercos too somewhere.
I love the the Yojumbo and Yojumbo lines.
I actually met the guy that developed those.

(01:10:13):
Those are a nasty wharncliffe blade.
I love wharncliffe that are the it's like arazor blade.
The tip is angled towards your target.
You know?
Let's see that kukuri wall while you're puttingit down.
Oh, okay.
Let me get it back out again.
I I went full screen to you so we boom.
There you go.
You got any kukuris over there, Dark?
Oh, yeah.

(01:10:34):
Oh, okay.
Cool.
I don't have one.
I gotta get I gotta get one.
So I
I have somewhere.
Nice.
Uh-huh.
The thing about kukris so I love the the thetypical kukri, but the kukris that I'm into,
fold, which is kinda unique.
Mhmm.

(01:10:54):
I have the the cold steel Oh.
Raja.
Hold on.
Hold on one second.
Let me go full screen on you.
I didn't know you were gonna just, flip it outlike that, Darc.
Hold on one second.
Boom.
There we
go.
When in
doubt, flip it That's
that's kind of the the cool thing about theseis Cold
steel Cold steel is cool too.
I like cold steel.

(01:11:15):
They a a k 40 Let me see if I can get Lola, canyou see if you can find my a k 47 knife?
I don't think that's from Cold Steel, though.
The a k 47 is right here.
Gold steel, and they actually have a a wavefeature like this on it to where when you pull

(01:11:36):
it out of your pocket, it catches on the edgeof your pocket
Yes.
And it opens up.
Oh, wait.
Is that so is that one from Cold Steel too?
Yes.
This one's from
Cold Steel.
Okay.
Okay.
The Boker a k 47.
Oh.
Now I I
have I have one of these that I used to carryevery day, and that knife that knife has been

(01:11:59):
used and abused to the max, but it still works.
And if I lose the $35 folder, who cares?
Right?
It's not like it's not and it's not like whenthe Microtech went away, I felt like I lost my
best friend.
Yeah.
It hurts.
And I did that.
That happened twice.

(01:12:19):
Not just once, but it's quite
It's like some piece of your soul was stole youknow what's the craziest knife that so Oh,
what's the name?
Is it Doug Markeda?
Doug Markeda.
Right?
The fight the night fighting guy?
So, was at SHOT Show, and one of my friends isgood good friends with him, and he introduced
me to him at the media day.
And so, I'm I'm talking to Doug Marcada andeverything, and he flips out this knife that

(01:12:44):
It's a knife he designed and made andeverything, and gives it to me.
When I lost that knife, I'm still looking forthat knife.
When I travel and I go places, I'm like, man, Iwonder if I left that knife here.
You know, if I'm like, at some place I wentbefore because, yeah, I can't it it was so I
should have never ever used that knife.

(01:13:06):
My my first Microtech, I actually bought fromTony Marfone at at at Knob Creek, one of the
first times I went to Knob Creek.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So
Yeah.
That kind of stuff.
$250 or something like that.
Right?
It it was the one that kinda looks like it wasa model that kinda looks like the like this

(01:13:26):
knife.
It's or it kinda looks like kinda looks likeyour knife, but it's just an auto.
Oh.
So Yeah.
The the Oh.
Yeah.
The Doug the Doug Markeda knife is the one thathad like that.
It was like a knife with a hook, and then ithas that circle in it.
Yeah.
Oh, man.
So the is the is he the guy that made theclinch pick?

(01:13:49):
Or that makes well
Yeah.
Do you know who I'm talking about?
I I I think I've seen videos.
I don't remember right offhand.
I actually
Darc, did you ever watch the show
on hand?
A k 47 on it.
Okay.
This is this okay, Lola.
I'm gonna drive Lola crazy.
I don't if I
Are you talking about
Don't worry about it.
The Mercado?

(01:14:10):
Yeah.
The Mercado.
Let me see if I could find it.
He was on the TV show where they where theymade knives.
It was like the competition where Yes.
Yeah.
Forged in steel or forged forged in fire?
Forged in wire, I think that yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'll I'll do this while you pull that up forthe person that asked about the Cricut provoke.
This was actually three d printed in PETG andcerakoted.

(01:14:34):
It's got two tone black and blue on it, and itis a karambit style provoke with you see that
that hardware in there?
You put a standard razor blade in it, and youpush it out.
And it's a very usable utility knife.
It also has magnets put in there.

(01:14:57):
So you pause the print.
Right?
And then you put magnets in there, and then itcompletes the print over the over the area.
Let me see if I can there you go.
You see the
So what is this used for?
To, like, get
It it's kinda just like a glorified utilityknife.

(01:15:17):
I mean, like
Oh, okay.
Sense of It you could like, if you had to, ifthis is all you had on you and you're familiar
with, you know,
the You could cut a bitch.
Yes.
You could shank some more.
Anatomy, yes.
You could do some work with this if you needRight.

(01:15:38):
Let me so let me just here, let me go back tomy phone here so I could show you Doug
Marcaida.
I'm trying to remember I think I did I have himon the podcast?
I can't remember if I had him on the pocket.
But this is him right here.
Oh, nice.
Oh, yeah.
I've seen
And this knife is the knife that he that hegave me one, and I lost it.

(01:16:00):
Oh, man.
You know, I I think that they actually collabedwith, Emerson on that knife.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So Phil.
Emerson
owns that, wave, patent.
So, let me see if I have one here.

(01:16:20):
Might not
thrown Look.
Lola found my AK 47.
Hey.
Oh, this is a cold steel.
Yeah.
There you go.
Boom.
Look at that.
Yep.
And that's got the dude, I that is a workhorse.
That knife right there is an absoluteworkhorse.
You can I've had this for years.
Yeah.
And it dude, the coolest thing, that littlething right there, the wave feature

(01:16:43):
Mhmm.
It opens up right when you pull it out of yourpocket.
Yeah.
And it's just like, bam.
You know?
Yeah.
So if you're especially if you're rocking cargopants with the little knife thing, when it
comes out, it comes out open even if you didn'tyou know, as soon as you take it out.
Yeah.
Wanted to?
Yeah.
Well, you better be aware of what you'rerocking.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Did I

(01:17:03):
lose oh, look.
No.
No.
You can switch the you could switch the theclip from this side to this side, I guess.
Yep.
That's what's going on here.
So I'll I'll show love to to oh, dang.
What is that?
Yeah.
Hold on.
Let me go let me go full screen on Walter so hecould show off this one.
The cleavy.

(01:17:23):
Here we go.
The beaver cleavy.
Traditional butcher knife, so to speak.
By
the way, I feel sorry for the idiot thatstumbles into Walter into Walter's house.
He's gonna get so chopped up.
Dude, he's gonna get
chopped and
This one is actually British.
I think it's
The worst part is gonna be the chops that comefrom, like, a dull blade.

(01:17:47):
It's got the, it's got the broad head arrow onit, so it's like British military.
Oh, cool.
But Yeah.
That's a butcher knife right there.
That is a butcher knife.
To the max.
Right?
Yeah.
That's a butcher's knife right there.
There's there's a company because I actually Imade I made the commitment for a primary knife

(01:18:09):
that would be like a a fighting knife.
So I usually carry two knives.
I carry like like, today, before I grabbed thatother Cold Steel, I carried, today, I carried
this.
This is a, Frenzy.
It's also a cold steel Frenzy s 35 v n steel.
But I made the decision because usually I carrytwo.

(01:18:29):
One is for cutting meat if I need to, and theother is for cutting
Your meat.
These bags and, you know, like Mhmm.
Amazon packages and stuff like that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But if, like, god forbid, I end up in a badsituation, like, if you're on the ground, can't
get to your gun, if If all you got is yourknife, I want consistency.

(01:18:55):
So all of my knives open up with the wavefeature.
And because not every knife has that feature,there's this company, snaggle tooth, that
actually makes machined aluminum piece that youcan swap out with your thumb stud, and it gives
you that, you know, that feature withoutpermanently modifying the the knife.

(01:19:19):
Oh, very interesting.
By the way, shout out to hot dog nine ninety.
He says my most expensive, knife was the one Igot when I signed up with the NRA, man, years
ago.
Okay.
Dang.
Yo, hot dog nine ninety.
Man, he
is Yes.
Is.
Order.
Love you, bud.
And he also says, aren't butter knives bannedin Great Britain?

(01:19:42):
Okay.
Probably.
Yeah.
I think every kind of knife is banned overthere.
Let's see.
Do we have some more?
Do we wanna what is this one?
I don't even know.
This is kind of like where did I get this from?
This is Oh, that's crazy.
Tool Logic.
This knife from Tool Logic.
Yeah.

(01:20:03):
On it?
Oh, flashlight.
Yeah.
I think I got this from my brother, Anonymous,because a lot of knives I have came through
him.
Nice.
And, yeah, he you know?
Yeah.
This oh, yeah.
Look.
The flashlight even still works.
That is crazy.
Yeah.

(01:20:23):
That is crazy.
That thing works in there.
Oh, now it doesn't work.
Oh, there it goes.
Yeah.
Working.
For a second.
Yeah.
It's funny.
Oh, and then look at that.
That's also in there.
Yeah.
My brother Anonymous is into a a lot of thereally nice knives that I got in the beginning
came from him.
He because he he was crazy about knives.

(01:20:45):
And then when he got sick of a knife, then Iwould inherit it.
So
Oh, nice.
Nice.
That that's Yeah.
That's a good I mean, what is family for?
Exactly.
I'm waiting to inherit some knives from Walter.
Don't know.
Right?
Let me let me show you what I kind ofinherited.
Okay.
Go go for it, Dirk.
Let me see what you got here.

(01:21:06):
Let me see.
I'll go hold on.
I gotta flip I gotta flip back the camera fullscreen to you.
Hold on.
You're good.
Sec.
This is actually another cold steel.
I I love the cold steel blades that like, thisthe frenzy I just showed, of course, it's blue.
This is a 5.5 inch blade s 35 v n steel.

(01:21:26):
Yeah.
See how it came out?
Came out ready for action.
Yep.
Like, it it comes out and is ready to go.
And it's a a wharncliffe, so that point is isright right pointed right at your target.
You know?
Because some some of these blades like likethis Kukri or, like, some of the clip point,

(01:21:50):
drop point, they they could bounce off ofclothing without cutting if it depending on the
situation.
But this one here is the cold steel holdoutone, and I have the little snaggle tooth guy on
there too.
So this opens up, you know, as you, draw it aswell.
This is a six inch blade, so it's like 13 and ahalf inches open, and it is a fully serrated

(01:22:17):
Yeah.
That's nasty.
That's a nasty piece of work right there.
Yeah.
Think this one's AUS 10 a or eight a, but it'sit's a pretty good it's a pretty good I mean,
for a 100 to a $120, all of these knives couldbe had.
You know?
Yeah.
And then this one is similar.
This is Hold on.
This style.
Wow.
So

(01:22:38):
Very nice.
Pretty nice.
Yeah.
Okay, Walt.
What are you bringing to oh, Walt's got a gun.

So, yeah.
When I 80 '6.
When I bought this one, I bought us a fixedstock one.
My dad kept his.
I sold my fixed stock one at some point.
And, I have a replacement now, but the type 56is my favorite.

(01:23:23):
Yeah.
That's complete, man.
Yeah.
Got the built in pig sticker on it as they callit.
So Yeah.
Yeah.
It's nice.
The so when it has that, it doesn't have thefixing tool.

This, I know we're all knives, but, this isPaul pulled out a chopper.
You don't need to go full screen thing just toshow this off.
This this is, it it's kinda tough to to nailit, but I'm thinking of, so it's a nylon
dagger.
So I'm thinking of calling it I don't know.

(01:25:38):
Don't do it.
Don't do it.
You already you already had enough troublehere.
You don't wanna court more trouble by whatyou're thinking.

Dagger slide with a comp that actually was sentto me.
It's a Dagger comp that was sent to me by oneof my viewers, Drew in Oregon.
So shout out to him.
Got the Gideon Alpha optic on there, theGoombeam light, which is just an incredible
light, super crazy hotspot.

(01:26:21):
And, yeah, it's just a really cool Glock that'stotally unserialized and awesome because it's
three d printed.
Yeah.
It looks awesome, man.
It looks awesome.
Okay.
Yeah.
Since we segue into guns for whatever reasonhere, I'll show off a gun here for one for
Well, I mean, you know, I'll
show off a
When you talk about
Yeah.
When you talked about inheriting, I had to

(01:26:41):
What am I?
I'm on the wrong thing right there.
Let's go.
Boom.
Check this out.
Look at this gun that I just acquired.
So this this is my Bushmaster ACR that I justacquired vis a vis, he who is known as baby
face p.

(01:27:02):
So there's a lot of there's a lot of, you know,I think designed by Magpul.
Right?
We could say.
Like, I just saw the Magpul.
Did anyone else see that Mag pull, like,commercial thing they did?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I saw the I know you shared
that right there.
There's a couple of places that you canactually see mag pull on the furniture.
What was it babyface was telling me?

(01:27:24):
Oh, in the grip, that's actually the magpullpattern.
I mean, he's got magpull right there, but thegrip pattern also is magpull in it.
So, yeah, you know, just acquired it.
It has the enhanced handguard, but I actuallywanna get the plastic handguard that these came
with.
But he said that this particular one came withthe enhanced, but I like the the plastic.

(01:27:48):
So
You know what that also has on it that a lot ofpeople probably wouldn't even notice?
Mhmm.
If you look at the muzzle device there, you getsuper close to it, you will see that that is
the old school 51 tooth AAC Mhmm.
Muzzle brake for the AAC s t six suppressor.
Yep.

(01:28:09):
And the older models actually had front towardsenemy engraved on their suppressors.
Oh, really?
So hold on.
Walt's Walt's got another gun here.
I'm pulling you up, Walt.
What what suppressor was that again?
I wonder if I can get my hands on one of those.
Actually, you you it's really hard to get.
I got one right here.

(01:28:30):
It is the AAC SDN six.
I'll show it after.
Oh, the the doughy.
Yeah.
Very nice.
Love this gun.
That that that I made, Dark.
That I made from parts.
That is impressive.
But Yeah.
The mediator.
Yeah.
This is cool.
I guess we never did a did we do a video?
I don't I don't think so.
I don't know.

(01:28:51):
Can't remember.
People don't even know a rich history of theDOE or the ACR.
The DOE, it is a Department of Energysubmachine gun that was made for dudes to
protect nuclear bombs.
You know?
And they they to have a
nine Nuclear.
Yeah.
Nuclear.
Yeah.

(01:29:12):
Nuclear.
Mhmm.
To not to not have over penetration in, youknow, a a facility such that would carry, you
know, nuclear bombs.
Right.
So that's what the DOE, Department of Energy?
That's what they were Yeah.

(01:29:33):
Showing their their their homies.
Mhmm.
Instead of just taking the m the m p five,which would have been the easy choice Mhmm.
They
They they they had Colt keep it on Metakanskyand and do the and do this thing.
So
It's very cool.
Really nice to shoot, though.
It works really well.
I
mean Mhmm.
It's also cool.
That that's the H and R, car brace.

(01:29:56):
Right?
What's that?
Ahead.
Say it again, Dirk.
Is that the the H and R car brace?
H and R.
Oh, yes.
Yes.
This is the this is the Palmetto State H and R.
Yes.
Cool.
Yeah.
Come come come January where it's not toofucking $100 to register it, I'm probably gonna

(01:30:20):
do I'll I'll change it over to a stock.
And and
I'm surprised you didn't make it a machine gun.
A metal one?
A machine gun machine gun.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
I mean, I could put I could I
have a I have a lower
Walt doesn't wanna make all his stuff machineguns.
I try to get him to make everything machinegun, but he's like, I

(01:30:41):
don't know.
I have a lower that actually I have a I have a16 lower that I did years ago, and it's still
sitting unpopulated.
So it could be.
It could be.
Mhmm.
Any job.
Yeah.
I mean
And was was Panther, ARMS, or PSA gonna put outsomething like this or no?
Or was yeah.
H and R?
Well
Yeah.
Yeah.

(01:31:01):
Because that's the h and their
H and R brand did this.
So they put the okay.
They put it on the H and R.
Okay.
Yeah.
Because that's who put it out before.
Had I bought all these these parts at KnobCreek.
Mhmm.
And I that's one of our lowers.
And I had I had the proper upper, and I and Istole this off another nine millimeter gun of
mine, the the deflector for the gas.

(01:31:22):
And one afternoon, I decided, you know what?
Let's build one.
So I had a nine barrel, chopped it off to theproper length, and turned it down.
And by the end of the afternoon, I had me aDOE.
Mhmm.
Heck yeah.
Think that the did stuff and things also, arethey doing one?
I know they always have some cool stuff, but Ican't remember what They're

(01:31:45):
doing it.
They're doing some, bullpup ish stuff with theAK.
Yeah.
For sure.
They are doing that.
Alright.
Let's see.
Let's take a look at Darks gun here.
Go for it.
Alright.
So this obviously, I got the Goombeam on itbecause that's I've I've run that light on
everything.
Mhmm.
But if you look at that brake right there Mhmm.
That is the same brake that you have on your onyour ACR.

(01:32:08):
And this is the AAC SDN six suppressor.
I actually would not recommend it, honestly.
Oh, really?
Clint can, but it is probably just as heavy asthe entire upper, of this rifle.
I mean, it's it's just a lot.
And, like, this safety, something's wrong withit.

(01:32:31):
It goes, like, all the way back.
I don't know what's going on with it.
But Just kidding.
Okay.
What
what you talk about, Trigger?
It's just my hairy, guys.
But Mhmm.
Mhmm.
But, yeah, it's just it's so heavy and so frontheavy.

(01:32:54):
It's just it's just too much.
Yet, we need something in Connell these days.
You know?
Gotta go there.
I am so impressed with the new cans that I'vegotten.
Like, the, it it was, was, like, $350, the, ABfive five six can.
Mhmm.
And, dude, this so this is, like, five fivesomething.

(01:33:18):
I don't remember exactly how much it is.
But this from, from CMMG, the homies, this ismy mini m p five s d.
I was originally gonna put, one of Walt'sbraces on it, but, dude, one of my viewers
tracked down one of the braces that I waslooking for and literally bought this for me.

(01:33:39):
Otherwise, well, I absolutely would've got the,you know, the one from you.
Oh, cool.
You you you were waiting to see if the wholeNFA thing went away, and
it Mhmm.
And
It did not.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Let me get this in here because I forgot to getthis, comment in.
Hotdog nine ninety gave me $5.
Thanks for the $5 there.

(01:34:00):
Hotdog nine ninety, I appreciate it.
Hotdog.
It says, the knife named after flying richcrashed, l o l.
Yeah.
Was that the crash?
That's the copilot.
Oh, the copilot.
Oh, okay.
Oh, so you do have a a knife for rich.
It's called the copilot?
This one.
Oh, that one.
Okay.
So is there is there a crash version of it orno?

(01:34:22):
No.
There should be.
I think he was referring to the pocket clip onit.
I guess that could be that could be
a cuss that could be a custom thing I engraveon the blade.
Yeah.
But I will say I I I could see a I could see acaricature of Rich's head sticking out of a
crashed airplane.
Oh, absolutely.

(01:34:43):
Absolutely.
By the way, this is my Tops knives right here,Milsby.
Nice.
Right there.
Tops Tops knives makes a nice knife also.
They do indeed.
Yeah.
Pretty pretty robust knife here that I use allthe time.
I'm trying to go through what else do I have?
What is this one?
This one is Handmade Knives by Ken Richardson.

(01:35:08):
Check this out.
Gotta take the gotta take the little clip off.
Look at that.
Woah.
That per animal.
Look at that bejeweling.
But
Yeah.
I I don't even know.
I can't even remember where I got this thingfrom.
I think I've had it for a while, though, but Icannot remember where I got it from.

(01:35:29):
That's dope.
Is that actual, staghorn?
I think so.
Wow.
I might have gotten this in I might have gottenthis in Missouri or something like that, I
think.
Yeah.
Remember getting some I remember getting someknives when I was there, and then I think this
is the tops no.
This is a OKC.

(01:35:50):
Check this out.
Nice.
Very good fixed blade.
Yeah.
And that skullcracker I mean, glass breaker.
Yeah.
Did OKC get sold to someone?
Yes.
I think so.
Oh, okay.
Do you remember what company they owns themnow?

(01:36:10):
Or
I don't remember, but I've harassed them everytime last couple years at SHOT Show because
they used to have really cool patches at SHOT.
Oh, okay.
Since since they were acquired, I guess the newcompany doesn't think it's necessary.
Oh, to do patches and stuff?
Yeah.
And so I go, hey.
Where'd you oh oh, well, uh-oh.
I don't I don't have them anymore.

(01:36:32):
I'm like
Oh, okay.
Oh, come on.
They don't need no marketing.
Tell these chiselers you need a patch.
Come
Yeah.
They don't need any marketing.
It it's like the woman over there at at SavageRange Systems.
Mhmm.
You know, Darc, I have a Savage Range Systemsbullet trap I've had for, like, fifteen years,
sixteen years.
Shot a video with MG 42, and it got, like, twoand a half million views.

(01:36:55):
Another guy stole my thing, and it's he'sgotten probably 20 plus million views off it.
I saw Rich pop that up to me, actually.
Mhmm.
Yeah.
So I I go over at SHOT Show.
Me and Hank go over the Savage Drain Systems,and there's a woman working over there.
And I said, I have a video with your I haveyour trap for blah blah blah, and I shoot 50
cal and blah blah blah blah.
She had no idea about YouTube.
She barely knew about email.

(01:37:17):
And I'm like Wow.
I got a thing with two two and a half million.
Another guy's got, like, 20,000,000 views on meshooting in your trap.
And he goes she's like,
oh, well, well, well, and
I contact I contact them afterwards.
No nobody replied.
Nobody answered back or anything.
It's like
Who was it them that took the video andreposted it, or was it

(01:37:38):
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
They didn't even know they don't even know itexists.
Goodness.
Yeah.
Wasn't it some Indian dudes that reposted it?
Supposedly.
Yeah.
That's what Paul
was saying.
Thought it
was some Indian dudes, and then they try to sueWalter.
They were, like, threatened Walter that theywould sue him over his own
copyright on.
I put a copyright thing on him.
Yeah.
They got mad.

(01:37:58):
Threatened me they threatened me back, and Ilet Crump loose on them.
And
Yeah.
Crump sent them a cease and desist orsomething.
Because they shut down their they shut downtheir that thing, and they was getting tons of
views.
And, so I ended up getting three
It's your content.
Like, there should be no questions
about scared they put the living the the fearof Jesus in him.

(01:38:22):
I got $300 out of the deal.
So Yeah.
That's fine.
They sent they sent they sent Walter money.
They first started out trying to sue him forhis own content and they wound up paying him.
That's crazy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Crazy crazy.
But you know what?
You need to make your own bullet trap or maybeDefinition Knives will make a bullet trap.

(01:38:42):
Get get into the bullet trap business.
I
don't wanna have the liability insurancemyself.
So
Yeah.
We
put all the scrap blades with gravel and sandin there or something like that.
You know?
Mhmm.
Mhmm.
Yeah.
Bullet traps is a tough game.
It's a tough game.
Maybe, like, for some people, there's somethings they don't feel like they have to market
it.

(01:39:04):
You know?
Well, there's only there's only a couple threepeople that really make bullet traps as far as
I know.
So
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's that's how it goes.
That's how it goes.
Alright.
Let's see what other knives you got there,Darc.
What what are you
Right here, I'm actually holding on to a CobraTech button lock auto, which is a very, very

(01:39:26):
well made knife g 10 steel inserts, and it's abutton lock auto.
So, boop, you just boop the button, and itopens right up.
It's a nice kind of standard drop point d twosteel.
It's a it's a good blade.
These things are like $50, man.
Oh, cool.
Very cool.
Yeah.
They're great.

(01:39:46):
Are we so I know we kinda got you in here inthe last minute.
Okay.
Walter is now bringing out an axe.
Hold on.
Got it.
Yeah.
This I forget the name of this.
I had to have one of these.
Go ahead, Darc.
Go ahead.
No.
You're good.
Good.
Good, Walt.
Go for it.
Boom.
I had to have one.
I saw I've see I see these for yearsadvertised, and I forget the name of it now,
but I had to have one.
You can use it for skinning.

(01:40:07):
You can use it for chopping stuff.
So these people were set up at the SHOT Show,and you're not supposed to sell stuff at the
SHOT Show, but everybody kinda does.
Yeah.
So at the end and I I asked to myself, at theend of the show, you gonna sell some of your
display stuff?
He goes, yeah.
Come back at the end of the show.
So I, ended up getting this at shot one year.

(01:40:28):
Nice.
But I forget the name of the thing, but it's awicked it's a wicked fella if you needed to use
it.
Beautiful grind on that thing.
Mean, is Yeah.
Yeah.
That's like stainless.
And it polish
Now why is that done?
Do you guys know?
Why do they do that where that part of the axeis almost like mirror finished?

(01:40:52):
So the the the the more deeply convex the theedge is, the finer the the point gets.
So, like, that's why knives like this are aremade.
So this is a flat grind, which which means,basically, they make one side of it as thin as

(01:41:16):
it absolutely can be, and then the other sideis just flat.
So it's not like a a two edged it's not twoedges that meet together.
Mhmm.
It's one side that's flat, and then they, youknow, bring one edge as, like, narrow down as
as narrowly down as they possibly can.

(01:41:37):
But if you see when I turn it, you see how highpolished it is on on the edge side right there.
Mhmm.
It's just to, you know, have such a steep anglethat it's you know, maintains a sharper edge.
That's cool.
Crispy says looks wicked, Walt.

(01:41:58):
Yeah.
Just and the funny part is, like I said, Ican't remember the name of the the knife, the
axe brand, but DeSantis made the made thesheath.
They made the okay.
Nice.
There
you go.
They're they're they're I guess, still are theystill a famous holster maker, Yeah.
Well known.
Well known.
So, you know, I would say Sam Andrews, Andrew'scustom leather probably the most the most

(01:42:23):
famous one.
Yeah.
That's that's the the home of
Yeah.
Yeah.
Andrew's custom leather is killing him outthere.
No.
That's really cool, man.
That's cool.
That is cool.
That is
Walter's got a bunch of axes.
It's a handy little sketchy
They're just cool things to have.
There's actually a three d printed axe that youcan put a utility blade in, which it it's it's

(01:42:50):
crazy.
Right?
But, like, for little tasks, it's it's cool.
It's fun.
Mhmm.
So what's you know, I don't know what's whatwhat Walt is showing here, but what is the
future of knives, man, from Definition Knives?
And I'll let Walt go go ahead, Walt.
You can show off that.
Oh, go ahead.
Talk.
No.
You're good.
I think You can show it.
I got you on full screen.
Go for it.
Yep.

(01:43:11):
Oh, okay.
Well, yeah, this is, this came from my uncle,and he picked it up someplace up north.
But the sheath, it's like a the fighting knife.
And it says USN on the blade, US Navy, I guess.
It's a camelis camelis.
How you say
that?
Camillus.
C a m I l l u s.

(01:43:31):
Camillus?
Mhmm.
Camillus.
Yeah.
Camillus.
Yeah.
It's got it's got it's it's got the guy's nameon it that actually something Johnson.
So the
sheath has seen better days, but this thing isprobably a w w two knife or something from some
vet.
Somebody resharpened the blade, but but

(01:43:52):
yeah.
It's like one of those bar.
You said it looks like a K bar, Dart?
Yeah.
It has that it has
that K bar feel.
Mhmm.
But, yeah, it definitely has the u the USN onthe blade, so it might maybe it was made for
the navy guys.
They can kill each other.
I don't know.
Mhmm.
That's Yeah.
Well, those

(01:44:13):
Folks, let me tell you about US law shield.
If you're serious about your second amendmentrights, then you need to get serious about
protecting yourself legally.
Use promo code hank for two free months on anannual membership plus a locked in rate of just
$10.95 per month.

(01:44:35):
Remember, the fight for freedom doesn't end atthe range.
Arm yourself with US law shield and remember touse promo code hank.
So hot dog hot dog nine ninety says, just pigpictured Walt shaving with that in the morning.

(01:44:58):
I think he's talking about the ass.
Oh, god.
Yeah.
This thing this thing is this thing would shaveyour neck off, I think.
Yeah.
And Chris b says flat grind is what scissorsuse.
Yeah.
Very true.
Yeah.
Mhmm.
Okay.
So I was trying to find out from you, what'sthe future of definition knives?
Any new knives coming out?
What can you tell us about?

(01:45:19):
So we're we're in the process of, of launch tworight now.
You know, we, we found out that when we dropthe entire launch all at once, it it actually
kinda falls more on deaf ears.
So, like, for our first launch, we worked so,so much into getting all of the knives ready

(01:45:41):
that, like, two, three, four of them sat untilall five of them were ready.
Then we launched all five of them, and thenpeople would jump on and be like, oh, I'll buy
this one, and then kinda you know?
So it it wasn't as engaging.
So we still had a very successful first launch.
So I don't wanna take anything away from thatand the gratitude that I have for it because

(01:46:03):
the support from the community has beenincredible.
Even, like dude, is something as, like, pettyas this?
Like, even if you just look at, like, the theboxes that we've gone to, like, the, the
upgrades are have been incredible.
You know?
But, and that's my little tagging.

(01:46:23):
I I do I do tagging.
I'm known to tag up dumpsters from, you know,time time.
Cool.
But, like, I oh, for the second launch, what wewanted to do was so this is one of one of the
ones that we we dropped for the second launch.
We were introducing one at a time, and, wedropped the, Aegean, which this is this one

(01:46:47):
here.
It's a wood grain, g ten eight c r 13 m o vsteel.
It has kind of an a a forward angle to it.
So it's a great cutter.
It's a strong work knife, and it's supersmooth.
It's on copper discs and ceramic ball bearings,so it's, like, crazy smooth.

(01:47:07):
And we also launched the Lumen, which I don'tknow if I have one, but, actually, yes, I do.
So this is our first frame lock.
This is the Lumen, which this one is named inhonor of Gideon Optics and those guys, and this
one is named in honor of Goombeam.

(01:47:28):
And this is our first, frame lock.
Still kinda copilot vibes, you know, carbonfiber, blue hardware, d two steel.
And it's just a gentleman's knife, but it'sstill, you know, strong as heck.
Yeah.
Like it.
It looks very sci fi, high-techy.
Yeah.
Right?
It's it's it's definitely got, like, a uniquevibe.

(01:47:50):
And Mhmm.
For some reason, this has been the mostpopular, and I did not envision this being the
most popular.
And we're just gonna be launching them oneknife at a time.
We launched the Aegean first, this one, andthen the the Lumin, and then we'll launch the
others as they come in from our manufacturer.
Okay.

(01:48:10):
Very cool.
Mhmm.
Huge growth.
Big big I mean, we've already been doubling thenumbers of of, like, volume that we've been
purchasing and lots of growth.
So lots of good positive things happening forthe future, and thank you all for your support.
And, actually, you know what?
I'm just gonna say this.

(01:48:31):
Mhmm.
We currently have celebrities that areliterally carrying definition knives every
single day, and we don't really, like, pumpthat like we should.
Mhmm.
I'll say this.
There are guitar like, famous guitarists thatcarry definition knives.

(01:48:52):
There are your favorite content creators thatcarry definition knives.
Print, shoot, repeat, Johnny b to to I don'twanna flex.
Lots of them.
Oh, flex, man.
Flex.
The Slipknot.
There may be a guy from Slipknot that carriesWhat?
Definite knives.
So Yeah.
You know, cool things happening.

(01:49:13):
That's all I'm saying.
Yeah.
You know?
Yeah.
Kind of knives would you like to see, Walt,since we have them here?
We could, you know, like, roast them over thecoals?
Yeah.
Roast
them.
Any any autos in the future?
Yes.
Yep.
Okay.
We're gonna be doing OTFs.
Also, a gravity knife.
Oh, whoops.
I don't think I was supposed to say that yet.

(01:49:33):
Okay.
Interesting.
A gravity.
Ah.
Oh.
Speaking of that
It's like the, it opens up like a y, and thenit drops out, and then you close it and lock
it.
But it has a secondary lock on it too.
Interesting.
I mean Okay.
Yeah.

(01:49:53):
Oh, that's nine nine.
No.
This this this is this is not original WorldWar two.
This is a post war one.
But Mhmm.
The the premise is Mhmm.
Is like I like it.
I mean, it I know it's paratrooper kinda thing.
Okay.
So when you flip that down, it locks.
Hold on.
Let me see if I can go.
Let me go full screen on you there.

(01:50:15):
Yeah.
It'll it'll it'll lock up.
I'll let you do it.
Do it again.
I got you.
So that goes and then if you go back that way,it locks the if you flip the flip the thing
back, it kinda locks the blade.
Oh, okay.
Cool.
You know, it's not one of those knives with ayou know, it doesn't have that aggressive point
of of of this one,

(01:50:36):
but Mhmm.
It's just a classic.
You know, the Yeah.
The the and banned in a lot of places, believeit or not.
Yeah.
Lots.
Lots of places.
Scary.
It just it just falls out like that, and thatscares a liberal.
I don't know.
Yep.
Yep.
That's exactly right.

(01:50:56):
It's just scary.
The same reason that it's
because it just it thinks for itself.
You know?
It could just wake up one day and decide ithates the world and, you know, do bad things.
Perfect example, the most dangerous gun in theworld.
You know?
This has actually, snuck out of the safe and,committed some robberies.

(01:51:18):
Oh, really?
It has.
Big truth.
I hope it brought back some good money to you.
So yeah.
So what what so the that's your idea, Walt?
What kind of of what kind of knives you'relooking for?
You just like to see these guys too?
I I like the gravity knives, but I I reallylike a a nice manly auto knife too.

(01:51:38):
Mhmm.
So I mean, on this order here, but, you know,auto.
Yeah.
So I'll I'll I'll say that.
So there's there's gonna be a, a line of, OTFautos, so double action autos Mhmm.
Similar to, like, you know Mhmm.
Look at, like, some of the knives we, you know,were showing earlier.

(01:52:01):
Mhmm.
There's gonna be a line of button lock autos.
So just, you know, hit the button, boop, andthey come out.
Okay.
And and what what we'll probably do is staytrue to the crop bar style lock, but have it
spring spring operated.
So when you hit the spring, it, you know, popsout.

(01:52:23):
Maybe.
Or or button operated.
But either way, just an auto knife like that.
And then also fixed blades and also, like,field tools.
So we're working on everything from pry bars.

(01:52:45):
Sorry.
Okay.
Sorry.
Pry bars, knuckle dusters that all of themcompletely magnetometer safe, so you could walk
into an area through a metal detector wearingthem.
Maybe even some polymer knives, like thingslike, you know, this that are totally polymer.

(01:53:05):
Mhmm.
A whole bunch of stuff, in the future.
Cool.
Okay.
So we're gonna are we gonna see some multitools?
Yeah.
Yeah.
For sure.
Multi tool Mhmm.
Pry bar.
Right now, I'm talking to two companies to setup a basically, it's like a definition knives
Halligan tool, which is gonna have a retentionring, like, like a karambit like retention ring

(01:53:31):
with a hammer on one side that comes down to apry bar that is sharp like, excuse me, like a
fixed blade knife.
So you could use it as a stabbing implement.
You could use it as a hitting implement, or youcould use it as a knuckle duster or an actual
hammer or, you know, other utilitarian stuff.

(01:53:53):
And no one has done that because therelationship between cutting something out of
bar stock steel and having a hammer.
Yeah.
Like, you can't do those two things.
So we found a way to actually bring those twoworlds together and and take a what was once a

(01:54:14):
door breaching tool for firemen and turn itinto a small pocket sized self defense weapon.
Oh, okay.
Cool.
What was that tool you were showing just now,Walt?
No.
It's Is that like a AR tool?
Side of the this was on the backside of the thegravity knife.
It's, I guess,
for Scraping.
It could be used for lots of things, like,getting untying knots and stuff or, you know,

(01:54:35):
you might necessarily need to yeah.
Juuk a dude.
Juking.
Yeah.
At
the the base of the spot, never
I will juke you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That hurts.
I mean, lots of dudes have gone out that way.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I like to think it's I think it's for untyingknots.
That's what I like to say.

(01:54:55):
Yeah.
That's what I like Alright.
Cool.
So From?
Solver.
Yeah.
Hotdog nine ninety says, DK, the official knifeof Hotdog nine ninety.
So there you go.
Yes.
I love it.
I love it.
Yeah.
No.
I'd like to He's
been hugely supportive.
And, actually, I just got your package outthrough some extra stuff in there.

(01:55:19):
I wish I could do more for all the guys thatsupport the way they do.
No.
Listen.
I'm I'm from my point of view, I'm glad to seeyou guys growing, putting in the work.
There's a lot of work that goes into doingthis.
So I'm well aware of that.
And, you know, I I think there's big things foryou guys if you stay committed to this and, you
know, and then improving things and andlistening to your customers out there and

(01:55:42):
getting them what they need.
What's gonna be the lightweight?
Like, so, like, how I brought up this.
It is you know, what's gonna be yourlightweight knife that I could?
Because that that's a big thing I run into withpeople that they don't want a bunch of heavy
stuff.
So what would be the lightweight thing comingout there?
Yeah.
So it it depends on, like, as as odd as itsounds, each launch kinda has, like, a theme.

(01:56:08):
And we kinda broke up the theme a little bitwith the with the Lumen.
This was one of the most lightweight optionsthat we came out with.
And this Mhmm.
All of them are all on copper discs and ballbearings, so they're super smooth.
This one has detents and stuff.

(01:56:29):
So this is a very, you know, light knife.
Like, it's it's crazy light.
I don't know why I threw it as if that woulddisplay how light it is, but it is very light.
The the thing is is that, like, it's goingthere's gonna be, like, future launches where
some of them will be kinda heavier heavier dutystuff, and some of them will kinda be lighter

(01:56:54):
options.
But we're actually exploring some prettycutting edge stuff for for knife materials.
Like, instead of going to the super steel routeof, like, m three ninety, we're exploring other
things that could potentially be revolutionaryin the knife world if we're able to work it

(01:57:19):
out.
If Rich says it's okay for me to talk aboutabout the powder stuff, then I'm gonna talk
Oh, I don't know if Rich is still out there.
Okay.
Good.
So Yeah.
Here's what out there.
Oh, boy.
Yeah.
Stuff.
Mean, like, the white powder stuff?
Yeah.
What does this mean exactly?

(01:57:39):
Right.
A powdered knife.
Just pour some water on it.
Just pocket sand.
That's that's what we're
off the handle a little bit.
Yeah.
Right?
No.
That's a good idea.
Yeah.
I would like to have a knife that has a, like,a compass in it or something.
That'd be cool.
That That would
be cool.
That's pocketable.
Like, I know there's survival knives out therelike that, but something, you know, lightweight

(01:58:03):
pocketable.
You screw the compass off, and there's a littleempty spot for you know?
I'm just kidding.
Hey.
Whatever floats your boat.
Uh-huh.
Instead of that cute little fire star, thatshould be a 22 in there.
Yeah.
That would be
a w.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Mhmm.
So what we found is that a lot of these supersteels like the, m three ninety MagnaCut m

(01:58:29):
three ninety, CPM crew wear, they are actuallymade by basically taking powder powder steel
and torching it to a bajillion degrees and thenhardening it.
Right?
Well, the way that people print three d printextruded steel is with powdered filament.

(01:58:54):
And what we found is that instead of goingwith, like, crazy high price expensive m three
ninety MagnaCut CPM, whatever, if you three dprint seventeen four American stainless steel,
it is harder and less brittle and lives longerthan most super steels on the market.

(01:59:19):
And it would all be super affordable.
So we're experimenting with some stuff likethat
Okay.
Interesting.
Which would change the game and would alsoallow us to have a, US based manufacturing
aspect of our company.
Right.
Because you could three d print it here.

(01:59:39):
Interesting.
You know what I was gonna go ask ahead.
Mhmm.
Just just to not three d printing in the senseof, like, my bamboo three d printer
Right.
Like out of a machine
with Industrial level.
Exactly.
Yeah.
Mhmm.
You know what I was gonna ask?
This is probably a good thing to talk aboutmaybe in whatever time we have left.

(02:00:01):
What is the legality of, like, going throughthe airport with knives?
Because I think, like, the one that Lola hadwas supposed to be TSA safe.
Is there do you look into that at all?
I know that yeah.
I I wouldn't recommend doing nothing, but isthere technically something TSA safe or no when
it comes to knives?
From from what I understand, I'm certainly notan expert or an attorney.

(02:00:24):
Mhmm.
Don't play on LTP.
From what I understand, there was a time wherethey were toying with the idea of federally
allowing blades of a certain length back onairplanes, but that it actually didn't meet,
you know, the the bill wasn't wasn't actuallywhat do you call it?
Mhmm.

(02:00:44):
Like, the legislation wasn't complete.
Never went through.
Right?
Okay.
Yeah.
So I don't think that there's anything thatwould allow anyone currently to bring a blade
on the plane.
So for me, what I say is all blades should bein checked baggage.
Just like if you were flying with a firearm,fly with it in checked baggage.

(02:01:04):
Yeah.
And when I look it up, that's pretty much theadvice that you're getting right there.
Any anything that looks like it could bepossibly some strange way a weapon?
Yeah.
Put it in your check bag.
Yeah.
However Mhmm.
I will ask anything
Mhmm.
Anything pointy, anything.

(02:01:26):
Don't There
Yeah.
There are some things that you, don't doanything that I'm gonna say.
And there is a $10 tool.
Yeah.
That looks like a key.
But yeah.
It's a key.
This is actually made by CRKT, and you bestbelieve the definition knives is already
working on stuff.

(02:01:46):
Mhmm.
We just have to be selective in what we comeout with.
This in the right place with the right amountof force could be devastating.
And when you put it on key rings and drop it ina bag with all of your other keys, it just
kinda disappears.
Mhmm.
The other one is, like a little multi tool likethis.
Right?
A bottle opener.

(02:02:07):
Yeah.
Yep.
What I usually do is, if I can there we go.
So left hand.
So it gives you a little, like, knuckle duster,but that right there, if you pop someone on
their skull with that, you are punching a holein their skull.
And then, I mean, you could you could get ascreative as you'd like.

(02:02:29):
All of these things have been on more than adozen flights in the past few years.
Okay.
I've personally taken them on planes becausethey're they're keys and tools that I need with
me.
There's other things too, like this, titanium.
This is from Tor.
This is a titanium, duster.

(02:02:50):
And this, this has, like, ridges on the frontright there.
And then on the back, it's got a similar littlehole puncher, if you if you were to put the
right amount of, force.
Knuckle dusters are usually used incorrectly.
They're supposed to be used on the front likethis.
You're supposed to dust a person with it.
Most people push it all the way back and punchwith it.

(02:03:13):
That could that could break your hand.
It it still hurts, but it will hurt both ofyou.
This hurts less.
But, yeah, if this was punched into the top ofa person's head, that piece right there is
gonna do some significant damage.
And this is all titanium, so it it doesn'trespond to magnetometers.

(02:03:34):
But, they will see it in this in the scanner,and, also, they will, see it in a body scanner.
Okay.
Yeah.
So there you go.
I don't know if anyone was, you know, concernedabout that out there.
Weapons.
It just don't bring weapons on.
Yeah.
Crispy says ghost knives.

(02:03:54):
Ghost knives.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
We're probably starting to see some of thosekind of things going out going on out there.
Ghost knives.
Yeah.
So at some point, you are gonna have some kindof polymer knife that you guys release?
Yeah.
It's coming up.
Okay.
Alright.
We'll we'll have everything.

(02:04:17):
Everything you you could imagine.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And you're gonna definitely have to have apractice version of that because I'm not are
you good at flipping out the butterfly knife,Walt?
No?
I don't know.
I'm not are you good at flipping out abutterfly knife?
You know, remember we got some from, ChrisEilogue?

(02:04:37):
See, I I I still got all my appendages.
Right.
Well, you can get practicing, things for that.
Yeah.
This is all got the I
I got the chrysalis log butterfly from ThePhilippines.
But Mhmm.
Yeah.
That's plastic.
Have.
So This is 100% polymer right here.

(02:04:59):
Okay.
Yeah.
That's cool.
Yeah.
Alright.
I think we covered a lot of knives.
We haven't done a knife thing here probably ina while.
We got a bunch of knives in.
Got some guns Yeah. In
In No.
It was cool, man.
And, congratulations on you guys doing theshow.
What's your next show that you're gonna do?
That the people could see you guys out there inperson?
You know?

(02:05:19):
I don't know.
We're we're debating going to Iowa.
I wasn't expecting goals to move that far awayfrom Tennessee.
So we're kinda debating on on doing the samebooth at Iowa again.
And especially because we did it with Fat Tack.
Huge shout out to Fat Tack.
Those guys are incredible.
I love their holsters and their gear.

(02:05:41):
But, if they don't do it Yeah.
Then it would be way more difficult for us todo it again too anyway, without the additional
travel and all that.
Right.
That's, is that both Josh's from Black DiamondGuns and Gears?
Or
Yeah.
Yeah.
So there's two two two other Josh.
So the same Josh, big Josh, the other Josh has

(02:06:03):
not been affiliated with Oh, say that again?
And the other Josh has not been affiliated withthe channel, for
a Okay.
But there's another Josh.
So they he's still growing he only he only doesbusiness with Josh's, I think.
Like, he
Pretty much.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Or they change their voice
to Josh when they join.

(02:06:24):
Probably.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's in the contract.
Okay.
Cool.
Alright.
That's good to know.
Alright.
So listen.
We are at the 09:00 hour.
I'm gonna wrap this up here.
It's been fun hanging out with you, Dirk.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Going over definition knives and talking aboutsome other things.
There's probably a whole bunch of stuff goingon in the world that we didn't get into, but

(02:06:48):
sometimes, I don't know, sometimes I like tojust ignore all the craziness that's going on
in the world and let, you know, things settlethemselves out or play themselves out.
But what I'll do here in the end, one, I wannathank the audience for hanging out with us
here.
I appreciate you guys.
And, two, I want to give these guys anopportunity to tell you all how you can support

(02:07:11):
them.
We'll start with we'll start with dark.
Let's go with dark.
How can the people support you, communicatewith you, etcetera?
Yeah.
Appreciate that.
So again, thank you for having me on.
It's always a blast to come and chat with youguys, and thank you to Hank and Lola and Walt
and all the viewers out there.
So, I'm Dark with DLD After Dark.

(02:07:31):
I'm DLD After Dark on YouTube, on Instagram, onthe tweeters, but also if anyone out there if
