My English teacher once said "your story should be like a mini skirt, long enough to cover the subject and short enough to keep your interest"
Now, this whole thread, when I started to read it, sounded more like a request of "what do you think of my youtube reviews?" without coming direct to that point. I may have read into it but that's how it seemed, looking for any support to see if what you have been doing is good, or you need to change this or that.
My take on youtube reviews, I agree with a lot here, table top reviews can be kept shorter, and enough unboxing please the tension just kills me...
I like some practical edc chores being shown, deployment from pocket to where the edge is in play. I'm mainly, almost strictly, a still photo guy but have made a couple of videos, none that I'd deem as good, but I might start to practice shooting more, uploading videos on a dsl line is staggeringly dull !
I don't have any real favourites, I've seen several of your reviews when searching on a particular knife, you do cover the aspects of the knife pretty well, some more practical use showing may be of more interest though.
While this person isn't doing a review perse, I like watching the Bark River Knives weekly walk around, he keeps them short and you do see a lot of what's going on, again, not a review but more an advertisement for one of our major Dealers here on Bladeforums, KnivesShipFree, he keeps things interesting and quirky and his sister pops in to also add to the mix and even Derrick makes an appearance from time to time. Again not a review, but it is short and keeps my interest and you can see the passion they have about their knives. I do not own any Bark River knives myself so please do not take this as a shameless plug, doesn't garner me a darn thing, but, it's something I enjoy watching week to week.
And who doesn't enjoy Nick's patter ? what a neat sounding voice he has too.
