TheYankeeMarshal, an experienced individual in firearms and gear, discusses his personal preferences for EDC knife blade types. He advocates for plain, straight edges for most everyday carry tasks like opening boxes, citing ease of maintenance. However, he strongly recommends serrated blades for knives kept in a vehicle or for 'out in the woods' scenarios where cutting through tougher materials is anticipated. He demonstrates a Cold Steel Voyager as an example of a suitable car knife.

This review highlights Cold Steel's large tactical folding knives, focusing on the Recon 1, Voyager, and Espada lines. Nutnfancy emphasizes the intimidation factor of larger blades for self-defense and the robust Tri-Ad lock mechanism, particularly in the Recon 1 XL. Comparisons are made between older and newer Voyager models, noting improvements in materials and lock design.

The 2011 Cold Steel Voyager series, particularly the XL model, is presented as a significant upgrade over older versions, offering enhanced strength and durability with the Tri-Ad lock and AUS 8A steel. Despite a slight increase in weight and thickness, the improved ergonomics and robust construction make them exceptional 'preparedness blades' for hard use, offering outstanding value for their price point.

This video reviews the Cold Steel Mini Lawman folding knife, highlighting several significant design flaws. The reviewer criticizes the lockup's wiggle, the knife's chunkiness despite its light weight due to the Triad-Lock, the impractical low pocket clip placement causing a 1-inch protrusion, the abrasive G10 handle material shredding pockets, the lack of jimping, and the blade arriving dull. While acknowledging the ergonomic G10 handles, fast deployment, adequate steel, and utility blade shape, the reviewer concludes that the downsides outweigh the positives, suggesting several alternative EDC blades that offer better design and carry. The reviewer gives the knife a 5 out of 10 on their likeability scale.

The Spyderco Persistence is a compact, EDC-friendly version of the popular Tenacious, featuring G10 handles and 8Cr13MoV steel.

The review covers the knife's features, including AUS8 steel, hollow grinding, fast deployment, and solid lockup, while also mentioning downsides like price and clip placement. With the mods, the reviewer gives it a 10/10 rating, recommending it as a fast and deadly backup blade.

This video critiques the Cold Steel Voyager series, focusing on perceived design flaws despite acknowledging its strengths. The reviewer highlights the knife's lightweight tactical design, adequate steel, lockup, and blade shape.

The reviewer suggests re-profiling the clip to improve carryability.
