As a very serious knife journalist, not only am I trying to find new ways to baton, I am always
looking to up my writing game. So I can sound real smart when talking about pocket knives.
But I'll be honest, constantly finding new synonyms for DOPE, AMAZEBALLS, KILLER, or LIT AF,
can be creatively draining. Maybe you kids aren't ready for amazeballs yet. But I don't give up,
you can't find LIT AF in Roget's, but you if you search Urban Dictionary, they don't give synonyms
but they do have helpful example sentences which you can copy paste into your life video.
Being careful to replace dick with knife. However the real benefit of the whole thing
is I found my new pre workout supplement. Although choosing between Gummy Worm,
Icy Fireworks, Lemon Ice, or Sweet and Tart is going to be real hard.
Sorry guys... (laughing) I mean an interesting conudrum. But we're not here to talk about my
verbal prowess we're here to talk about the DOPE AF Null Knives Voodoo. And how many different
times can I call a part awesome, without viewers thinking I’m a total hack. But the
jokes on you total hack is a complement for a guy putting out this kind of content.
Anyway enough about the language arts, so how about let’s look at the math section of the
video. We're going to make this a quick look, I don't have time this week you don't have time.
I spent a time editing the fixed blade overview, and that one could have done better, and plus I'm
trying to have this video done on the 24th before the preorder goes live on the 27th of October.
Anyway at the beginning of this year I got loant the Raiden, and this follow up second
knife is pretty awesome. I have a little running tally here... used dope, lit, awesome, killer.
This is a loaner too, so you won't get to see your feathersticking with fingerless gloves,
with a folksy guitar backing track this week. So the Voodoo here is technically
a production sample so things could change, but they probably won't and the knife they
sent me is pretty dialed in already. Let's start with the blade, if I said it was M390
could you pretend like it's the first time you've ever heard M390? Hey guys it's M390,
look it up. You can also look in the comments maybe M390 guy showed up tis week. He has some
opinions on it. As far as the blade shape- The cooler kids, the millennials, might call
it a reverse tanto, but the old guy in me will call it a sheepsfoot with a little bit a harpoon
style swedge thrown in. A Sheepspoon if you will, which turns out is a very careful pronunciation.
Now note there are going to be at least 5 variations at launch, and all have
varying blade finishes, but this here, the one in my hand, is an acid wash- but you knew that
though viewer. It's me the dumb guy that has to read the specs. Otherwise it might have been a
tricky situation... Product voice guy (right... actually we're looking at a tumbled titanium
coating) it looks like an acid wash but you know it's actually a pretty common misconception.
We're really trying to elevate what customers expect when we provide them an acid wash. We
just don[t give them acid washes here. Anyway as a knife reviewer and as far as my preferences go
I'd take a nice hand rub anyway. And they have a Satin hand rub on the vodooo with Black CF.
While this knife has moved onto it's next influencer stop one thing I remember that is
just about perfect on this knife is the dialed in action. I literally love everything about
this knife but the action seals it. It has a nice detent, not too strong not too light just perfect.
Easy popping. Whatever force it takes to overcome the resistance of the detent, it follows through
with a solid and smooth lockup. Pivoting on the ceramic caged ball bearing system the action
is almost drop shut. The triway thumb stud is pretty nice. Not too edgy and uncomfortable- no
real fidget owies I have found when flicking it. I don't think the manufacturer can officially say
where this one is made, but if this isn't a reate then shoot me. I'm serious do it.
Blade is locked by a bolster lock. Kind of like a frame lock but lot's of titanium is
removed as to no longer call it a frame lock, there's too much titanium missing,
not a liner since it's not a separate piece, so it's a bolster lock dummy.
Sometimes there's some pinchy parts in these areas where a scale and lock meet but not here-
no sir. The handle is amazingly comfortable for my hands, despite the extra conturing. The Voodoo is
not a massive knife but about the size of a Para Military 2- and for some smaller handed persons
that still might be too big. And you know what were are other knives for cuter less tactical
hands. Or if you're motivated you could always campaign for a Voodoo micro. Just post multiple
comments under all the videos and instagram posts till you get your way. That's an option.
Pocket clip is nice and sculpted and also pretty great, not deep carry and not a pocket
destroyer. Waited for a while to use the pretty great descriptor. I am really getting better.
Like the scales and blade coating the clip finish changes on some of the variations.
Of course left handed guys that like swapping out the pocket clip, I'm sure you're used to this by
now. If it makes any of the left handed guys feel better, next year I will have finally paid off my
film school loan, from a place I graduated from with an associates in November of 2002. I have
made a payment every month since that time. (Guy in the background) That was a choice.
Comparisons. I borrowed some tactical jewelry from Levon, who also sent me this. He being
the influencer who had the voodoo before me. You know the rule is If I have a Socom at the house
I'm gonna show it. Yeah there's a blanket below the camera. The handle is longer as is the blade,
and it's also heavier, obviously heavier and longer is more tactical. Now the Para Military 2
both this and the Voodoo are great EDCs, as you know I have Flytanium sculpted scales on
the PM2 and a Lynch clip, and I have now used the word great too many times. Now the sharp
by Design Evo. Great knife, fuck, like all these are pretty great. Son of a bitch. Not
a bad knife in the whole house payments worth. Sorry student loan payments worth.
Ok are we about done. Honestly I think this one is even more of a knock out than the first. I
think I need to use knock out more. You know what that's going in the title. And it might be a nice
algorithmic tie in with baseball post season- because apparently everyone likes baseball right
now. I wish I had something real critical to say about it, but I don't. I think I prefer the
natural micarta or one of the limited carbon fiber options. The blue launch edition one is cool, but
I can live with price of the tan micarta. Preorder info can be found on their website which takes
place on the 27th of October. So that's a few days. Anyway follow null knives over on Instagram.
Say Hi to the patrons, they're saying Hi back. Maybe they are High who knows- you have to be a
little to enjoy knife videos. They keep my video equipment up to date. Like subscribe comment,
and I think that ends my half assed call to action and this half ass video. Thanks for watching.
