This video reviews the Camillus 7.25" G10 Model 18668, a drop-point knife featuring VG10 steel, a hollow grind, and a lightweight pillar construction weighing only 3.0 oz. The reviewer highlights its razor-sharp edge, good thumbstud, black TiNi coating, and reasonable price point around $45, making it a capable EDC blade with classic looks.

This video review focuses on the Camillus Rescue Heat folding knife, highlighting its suitability for rescue operations. The reviewer praises its rescue blade shape, fast assisted opening, tight lockup, and comfortable curvature. Key features like the glass breaker tip and bright orange color are also mentioned. The knife's weight of 4.0 oz is deemed reasonable for everyday carry.

It's recommended as a reasonably priced, excellent blade for water or automotive rescues.

The KA-BAR Marine Combat Knife, specifically a 1996 Camillus model with 1095 carbon steel, is a durable and historically significant fixed-blade knife. While its stacked leather handle offers a good grip when dry, it can degrade in wet conditions.
