Nick Shabazz gets his own SAK design.

Ill try to contain my excitement.

And yes, he is a member here.

 

Really like the design, but I hate that it's a BHQ deal, as they hate foreigners. Well, apart from the ones with a big following on youtube. But that's neither here nor there.

Didn't he say that some other youtubers also had gotten their own designs?

 

He should have a Z Hunter version instead.

 

Birdshot IV and Talon Sei

 

It isn't his own design. It is a basic SAK with his own scale graphics and screw on scales. It is the current rendition of what used to be known as a marketing knife. Victorinox does them all the time. I like Nick and his reviews, but this isn't something I can get enthused about.

 

is it a contest give away ??!

 

If you didn't tell me that was a Nick logo, I wouldn't have known.

I like the Birdshot one too.

I don't want Talons face on a knife.

2/3 aint bad. But I'll stick with my solid color classics.

 

I ordered one . I have carried the swiss lite for over 22 years . Only bought it because of nick
On being a special knife , victorinox has made thousands of different scales.

I have the plain alox version. The content abundance on BF is astounding.

 

People will buy them for the screw on scales and mod the hell out of them.

 

@NickShabazz

 

Good grief...

 

The screws are just a graphic, but overall I agree a classic with his particular graphic us not his own model.
Honestly out of all I'd choose his if I had to, he's kind of funny though doesn't fall into my side of the knife hobby so I don't watch his videos.
The others one I don't know and the other I have seen once or twice.

I'm just glad Gideonstactical didn't get one but wouldn't mind of Cutlerylover got one.

 

That's not even a "knife" that I'd consider carrying.

The smallest Swiss Army Knife in my kit is an Explorer. It's got all of the tools that I need/want in a SAK and I've got 4 or 5 of them stashed in various places, including my kitchen

Humility aside, with all the criticisms (and praise) he heaps on knives in his reviews, I think it would be very easy for Nick and a cooperating knife mfg to create a NS modified version of any knife that he has reviewed. Designing a knife from scratch would be another matter, but I would be curious what a NB modified knife would look like and if the public thinks it's any better than the original.

 

THANK YOU.
Now I don't have to say it.
Should have been a very minimalist SAK Cybertool with torx for other knives etc and a nail nick tool rather than can opener.
Hahahaha open one nail nick to open another nail nick . . . I need mental help . . . what am I thinking ?
( Although there is a knife or two with 9 /10 pull I could use it on )
PS : there can never be too many Nicks ! (aaaannnnnngetit too many Nicks ?)
PPS : add a tiny brush that folds out to clean lint out of back locks.

 

Oh me too ! ! !
We need to get him on here and find out.
From the YouTubes I'm thinking I would like it. One exception might be the wide flat handles. Last I saw he went for a Chapparrel over his famous all time best EDC (for us City Slickers) the Delica.

Lets see if I can give him a check list he can yay or nay :

• Drop shutiness of a Graham Razel
• Smoothness of a Slysz Bowie
• Blade size of the Delica
• Thinness of the Chaparral
• ??? lock ? ? ? what lock does he like the best ? ? ?
• ? ? ? handle material ? ? ? he is OK with FRN but goes for a lot of Ti
• Handle length of the Chaparral ( I remember he liked that a lot; personally I still prefer the blade to handle ratio of the Delica)

EDIT how could I forget :

• Acid green SKULLS !

 

Ordered one right away. Havent played with a newer Victorinox and I really enjoy Nicks reviews. Not exactly gonna be an edc item for me but its fun and sometimes I need a little joy in my life. *wink wink nudge nudge*
