Yes indeed. I am still missing the days of Black Talon rounds. But that is just me. ;)
 
there's nothing wrong with demonstrations that border into the hokey. but to say that other more expensive products "can't even do this" is bad advertising. in this day and age, few people find the need to cut manila rope; and meat buchers use far cheaper knives to better effect.

but i do agree with the mention that many fanciers of other brands simply like to own awesome stuff. i own one cold steel product. i think it's awesome. and i hardly use it.

as regards my other knife brand that's famous for simply being awesome, i never thought i would need to take it out over lunch just to cut a stubborn pork chop but i did. VG-10 is awesome regardless.

Yeah but those videos don't feature an obnoxious spokesperson with his own heavy layer of "ballistic gel" yelling about how his product is the best ever because of blah blah blah. LT's claims range from huge exaggerations to blatant lies; anyone who advertises that way can expect to not be taken seriously. It's not the demonstrative aspect that people think is stupid, it's more the as-seen-on-tv style of misrepresentation and spreading misinformation.

VG-10 is amazing stuff. I thought that ZDP-189 took a fine edge, that is until I tried VG-10.
 
why you, that's what i've been trying to get my hands on these past few months! they showed in youtube how a delica 4 zdp 189 made a visible slice on a steel hand cuff after a few slicing strokes.

now that video wasn't just hokey, it was campy.

Lol what does his looks have to do with anything? Have you seen what Michael Janich looks like? If you feel he lies or exaggerates then just don't buy the product and keep it moving.I guess I just don't take it as seriously as you do.You seem to show up in every coldsteel thread but it's never out of interest of anything they make.
