This video, titled "EoTekto EDC collab," focuses on testing knives from Tekto. While the title mentions "EDC" (Everyday Carry), which can sometimes be associated with firearms, the description explicitly states the content is about "Tekto’s EoTech knives." Therefore, the primary focus appears to be on knife reviews and functionality within an EDC context, rather than firearms.

This YouTube video focuses on testing the slicing capabilities of a Tekto flipper knife. The title directly asks "Will it slice?" and the description confirms the testing of a Tekto knife.
