Hey guys! So I tried my hand at doing some videos while I was attending the SHOT show last week. You can find them in a playlist on our Youtube channel TheRealBladeForums.

If you hate playlists, here's the videos broken out by topic:
SOG Knives

Kershaw Knives

Ethan Becker talks about the BK 62 Kephart

Ontario Knives

TOPS Knives (complete with a spiffy intro montage)

Be advised, I had no idea what I was doing with the camera and I had absolutely ZERO video editing experience before this, so the audio quality is not great and I'm a pretty terrible camera man. I'm still working on getting videos up for Benchmade, CRKT, Spartan, Hinderer, Kizer, WE, Spyderco, Buck and more; they'll be added to the playlist above as I finish them.
 
That BK62 has my name all over it! What a gorgeous knife.

You can tell how much the pattern and the history means to Mr. Becker.

Well, we all gotta start somewhere ;-)
But hey! You've got it done anyhow.
So thanks for giving it a "shot"
It's great to have a first hand view
of "what's new" from your angle.
Will be viewing the playlist,
no doubt about it.
So keep it coming
as there are lots of folks
who can never physically
make it to the shot show, ever.
These videos are truly the next best thing!
 
great videos Sir. thanks.

classic Kershaw auto. looks good, but Kershaw still hadn't solved their lock up lock bounce issues with their autos. the launch 8 didnt lock up. he had to pull it open to lock, but he did it really well and not obviously. listen and watch around 16:16 to 16:18.
 
Keep 'em coming!

Youtube gets so jammed with "content" that it would be an all day job to find what you're looking for, and some of the less "famous" knife stuff gets buried real quick by videos from randoms that Youtube decides to boost. Thanks for doing this, Spark.

Gotta start somewhere, brother! Nice work. Keep at it :thumbsup:

Ethan is just a regular guy, in spite of everything. It must have been really weird for him when other people started treating him like a celebrity. I suppose he's gotten used to it, by now.

Yeah, he's not as much of a "rock star" in the world of knives, but he has a core of fans, and I've heard that they smell like wood smoke, all the time. So come to think of it, he might feel right at home around them....
 
Thanks for the videos just getting into different knives and I look to videos to help in making choices for future purchases
so thanks again might have overlooked a certain maker without vids.
 
I must say that I’m impressed but the Ontario offerings, but that may be that I am just easily impressed. I like the dtyle of knives they produce and think they are definitely underrated.

Short time- maybe the fact that he's just a regular guy, is why I like him.
I'm just a regular hillbilly from WV and I'd love to smell like campfire smoke all the time. I guess a guy can dream.
 
Thanks, Spark! I'd just as soon give you the views as anyone else. Haven't seen the Ontario offerings yet, I have to check that out.
 
Thanks for putting these up, appreciate the effort. That short Ontario is right up my alley...
 
Boker video is up:
 
Chris Reeve Video is up:

Also LMAO at whomever is so butthurt that you are instantly disliking our vids as soon as they are uploaded.
 
Nice job on this series. Those of us who are unable to attend appreciate a glimpse of all the cool that we missed. Thanks for your time and effort.
