*** Pros / Cons ***
+ Unique, futuristic looking design with crisp lines
+ Good, solid fit & finish
– Steep angles and corners on the handle are not overly comfortable
– One-position pocket clip
*** Verdict ***
This is not the most pragmatic design, but not gimicky either. It sacrifices a bit of comfort and ergonomics for a very distinct visual style reminiscent of science-fiction. It’s well put together and has no significant flaws other than the handle which would feel a lot better in the hand if it was more rounded (or beveled). But it’s almost polygon-like shape makes it highly subject to personal taste, so it may very well be it a love it or hate it kind of deal.

Now comes the big question… This blade or the scha3cb
I love mine …the blade REALLY flies out. 😉
love the looks.
why does it kind of have a curve
30 second ad at start
I like there fixed blades alot better
based on your reviews I am leaning heavily toward the Persian Folder for my EDC knife but it's nice to have someone else sort through the vast mountain of folders out there
please review the ratwork mrx it is the strongest auto knife they cut it through a car door for with an air chisel
Why would you not like having a safety on a firearm?
Looks pretty cool, but it seems pretty thick to keep it in my pocket…
You said you didn't like manual safety, but what other types of safety are there? Cause I want to buy a knife that won't open in my pocket, and I thought Shrade knives were the only knives with a safety. BTW, I bought the SCHA3CB a long time ago because of your video, now i'm looking for a new knife.
where can I buy one of those?
looks like a cool outside belt knife
Tava procurando um mito e achei um lixo
ÉÉ FISTAYLE
If Lamborghini designed a knife…
Thanks for the review!
just picked one up black aus8 its badass i normaly carry a endura or a mini grip and its just as good ofa edc as any of the other edc knives i got
does this knife disasemble?
Excellent video! You're right – does look like something Robocop would use 😉
I dunno, looks like some sort of Batman fantasy knife….
Assisted opening is illegal in Germany. Just saying.
why are switch knifes bannned? like oh no he could take the blade up faster that will fuck some shit up! lol
Taylor seems rather decent as long as they have a sane designer at the helm
I'm guessing its angled design and small silhouette make it totally invisible on radar but alas it still shows up on metal detectors.
Good vid once again man
