The kinzua is pronounced kin-zoo. The A is silent. Named after a bridge that was blown down in a tornado on the upper Allegheny. They fortified the piece that was still standing and made it an overlook. There’s a dam by the same name up there too. We do kayak trips up there all the time.

@@erictalkington5674 I have no problem paying more for quality from a independent small business, but I'm just saying often they're charging 3x for something inferior in quality. For example, local pizza places you can buy from one of the retail chains or pay $5-10 and get something that's much better and helps keep a small business around. If they're charging a premium there has to be a reason to justify it not just - we're a small business. I'm not going to pay $20 for a pizza I can get at Little Ceasars for $5-7. But I will pay 3-4x the price for a pizza that taste 10x better than the garbage pizza Little Ceasars sells.

...I guess I am the one person on the planet who will NEVER want a pocket clip on ANY tool that I carry. Yes, I do have pocket clips on my pocket folders (and I absolutely hate it)... but I carry my Surge in a Deadskin leather sheath on my belt, and I also carry [at least one] fix blade daily, but my folder(s) are just dropped into my pocket. A Silat buddy of mine frequently (when I see him) continually challenges me to a quick draw, and we pretty much ALWAYS tie... he uses the pocket clip on his folders. I can ALWAYS access the orientation of any blade I carry immediately... always. It just turns into an immediate Saksak or Pakal orientation of the blade, and then it [immediately] will go into its proper (most functional use). Over the years of doing this very functional little game with Craig, both of us have proven to each other that we have our [situation] down to the blink of an eye, really, and because we are clearly both stupid people, we have cut each other more than once. It's literally a [to each their own thing], but for me, I'll NEVER prefer a pocket clip on my folders.... although I pretty much keep them on the tool, and then just don't use the clip.

I was trying to see how this stuff would not only cost $500 but be worth $500. I've had a simple edc that maybe cost me $25 to put together. Folding/ locking blade knife Various free pens used for business promos Different notebooks from dollar store Just a regular no name multi tool used almost everyday Simple key rings attached to a locking carabiner A nice leather wallet that holds my credit card type metal flat multi tool A small either dollar store or Walmart rear push two finger thick flashlight. Over 10 years old will replace when it breaks, with a usb rechargeable light from temu for about $6. Now don't get me wrong. I love those higher quality higher priced, made in the USA, EDC and camping gear. But there's a difference of enjoying your content and an average Joe going out and spending around half of a week's pay or even a truck payment on this stuff. As always thanks for creating these videos. 💪📺🎥👍

Most of the things he has aren't top of the line quality for price though, for example the knife... ZT's are nice but you can get a kershaw or spyderco with a better steel grade for longevity/toughness at a much cheaper cost; just simply paying for brand at a certain point. As for flashlights, your average person only needs 300-700 lumens, which you can find decent ones for under 30 dollars. Key organizers and stuff are cool, but you can have the same effect with key rings and paracord, just need to build it yourself. And pens/wallets? only real difference in price is external materials, debatably "fashion" points.. seeing as a 4 dollar pen will do the same job at 400 dollar pen will, same with wallets (outside of RFID protection, of course).

the only real thing I can say the more you pay, the better you get is watches to an extent. obviously a rolex isnt the greatest price-quality ratio from a functionality standpoint, but if you compare a chinese made watch from walmart to a decent watch from even a jewlery store you'll see a difference in quality.. For example compare a 12 dollar george's watch from walmart to a 300 dollar eco-drive citizen, the 12 dollar watch might last 3 years with no issues, but the citizen can run for 20 or more on average.

I might grab one of the 5:11 hard points for my work backpack. I have been using the James brand carabiner now for something like 5 years now and it’s still perfect aside from the visible wear. The hard point would be a perfectly secure way to clip it to my bag. The last knife I got at bass pro was the benchmade 940 specifically for a build since they had them on sale for $99 at the time. It ended up with rockscale critter scales, lynch clip, blue hardware all over and a BGM hollow regrind. It goes to work with me and gets absolutely thrashed on. Not abused, but definitely used hard. I don’t like benchmade as a whole, but $99 was a damn good deal for a classic like the 940.
