Knife Guys Will Appreciate These... 🔥 (Maybe)

If you've watched the channel for a while, you know I'm always building something, fixing something, or out on the rocks. One thing that's almost always in my pocket? A knife.

In this video, I show off a few of my favorite knives from my collection, why I like them, and what makes each one unique. Some are practical everyday carry (EDC) tools, while others are just plain cool engineering that I couldn't pass up.

I'm definitely a knife junkie, but for me it's more than collecting. I appreciate good design, clever mechanisms, quality materials, and tools that actually get used.

What's your everyday carry knife? Let me know what you're carrying and what knife I should check out next!

The Escape32 Community Has a Problem... (Boomslang was RIGHT) ESC Programming

Guide | 2 months ago

I watched Boomslang's AM32 vs Escape32 video, and I think he made a fair point. The issue wasn't that Escape32 is bad software—it isn't. The problem is that many users struggle to tune it, and instead of getting helpful guidance, they sometimes receive crit...
