Guardian Tactical Helix Review

I finally found a few minutes to make a video on this knife. They are a newer company with some really sweet offerings.

Nice vid Auston! I hadn't heard of this company yet, I'll have to check them out. Obviously the blade you got was awesome smooth! But do you know if that is the norm for their blades? Or if you got lucky with yours? If that smoothness is their norm then they will for sure get some money from me!

Really enjoyable review of what appears to be an outstanding knife.

The smoothness in closing is seductive.

Many thanks!

Thanks Ben! I can't be 100%, but I would assume them to all be equally smooth. They have a few different finishes on their blades: Cerakote, Satin, polished and now stonewashed. The greatest smoothness would be assumed to be found on the polished versions, followed by satin, then stonewashed and Cerakote last of all. Here is a video of their Patron model with the Cerakote finish by Knifeguy: http://youtu.be/aFG4nfZU5g4

As you can see that knife is equally smooth as my stonewashed Helix, and the all black G10 versions are their base models.
