Knafs@Nite - September 6, 2024

The Holy Grail of Budget Knives?

Hello Everyone and welcome to the latest episode of Knafs@Nite - our weekly video round-up where we share with you all the exciting things about Knafs and the world around us.

The boys are clocking in at around 11 and hit the ground running talking about Guacsox, Landerboards, 3D printed Crocs, and a $10 Walmart knife that is blowing minds across the land.

LET'S DIG IN!

Knews

Ozark Grail

Over the course of the last few weeks, this $10 Ozark Trail knife has come out of nowhere to shake up the knife world. It's been the main focus of the Moon Crew and it's all over YouTube.

Ben and Austin break it down for us.

(Note to Ben: we all say KA-BAR the same way you did.)

Dang It IG!

Instagram has been a real bear to work with in terms of sharing pictures of knives. Accounts are getting flagged, there's been some shadow-banning - more effort than you might expect to keep people from seeing pictures of knives.

It's a big hurdle for knife companies AND knife fans. Montana Knife Company even tried to side-step it, and even that didn't work.

Stabbing in Solingen

Recently there was a knife attack in Germany where people were killing and injured. As a brand, we light to keep things lighthearted and positive - however, these things are hard to just ignore. 

Blade Show West

Coming up on October 4th and 5th, we will be at Blade Show West in Salt Lake City. If anyone has ever been to a knife show where Knafs is in attendance, then you know that it's going to be nothing but good, clean fun!

Lulu's Are Back!!!!

Lulu's are back in stock and just as awesome as ever. Are you a fan of the raw Magnacut or the black coated version?

Also, have you ever jammed up your Ulticlip? DON'T! It's not easy to do - but it can be done.

Yucky or Yum

If you haven't figured it out yet, Austin is our Yoda. He comes up with these great sayings that inspire us all. 

New Scales!

We have just released new Lander 2 and Lander 3 knife scales. YES! you can still print your own - but we had some great ideas and wanted to make them into a reality! Also, this is totally a Brookie, not a Brown Trout (or Rainbow Trout).

Shout out to Trent and Melissa for their great designs!

Moon Crew Moment

Saturn 5

Kevin Cooper shares a bit of NASA history with us.

Big Hands!

Duart Du Plessis has massive hands.

Clutch Lock Banter?!?!

James Kennedy spots something that 99.99% of us all missed. 

If you want to be part of our “Moon Crew”, head right here to join up!

Ship Shape Sharpening Shop 

This is a spot where Ben gets to show off the knives that come to Knafs for TLC. Every week is wilder than the last. It’s a great opportunity to see what people covet and what they want to be resharpened and cleaned up by the knife maintenance gnomes here at Knafs. 

Mailbox 

We love getting mail here at the office. So, if you've got something weird and wild you want to send us direct it here:

Knafs

Clearfield, UT 84015

Turtle Power

David wants some very specific Ultem scales for his Lulu. We had them for the Lander 1, so why not the Lulu?!?! Ben explains.

Landerboard

Marshall has designed Tech Deck scales for the Lander 1! 

@Cintage is looking forward to meeting Ben.

Ben is going to be at Knife Lounge in Hamburg, Germany on 9/14.

@JDB16 wonders about shipping costs.

International shipping costs are always a thing. We're working on it!

@Mars0484 has a question for Austin.

Austin admits to not following through. 

@RikkiHernandez wants Jamie's autograph.

Jamie is in WICKED high demand these days.

@eriktaylor5704 has a Lulu of an idea.

We also like 14C28N. It's kind of a big deal in steel this year.

Field Trip

Ben's trip to Taipei is the focus of this weeks field trip. He ends up in this EPIC knife and gear store in Taiwan. Just a little trip through their website is enough to see that these folks are all about EDC.

Also, Ben tries Stinky Tofu. #wth

Fun Fact: we still have no idea about last week's dehydrated snack pears that Ben was snacking on.

Bottom Of The Barrel

What’s the worst seller of the week in the Knafs lineup? We only sell the things we think you want and need, but some of them ebb and flow.

This week it's the 3D print of the Lulu. We actually don't sell these; they're free to download and print. We just think more of you should download it.

Fresh Prints

Dunking Tool
This hanging device makes dipping things easier. What kind of things? Well, we use it to dip our blades into acid. But that's a whole story in itself. Ben will tell you.
3D Printed Crocs
There's a lot to unpack here. We'll let Ben and Austin take you on this fantastic voyage.

Musical Moment

This one is a big surprise. So we're not going to spill the tea here. BUT - now would be a good time to get your best headphones out and immerse yourself in this AI inspired bop.

Boom. Done! 

There have you it! We really hope you got everything you expected and then some from this episode of Knafs@Nite. Make sure to subscribe to our channel on YouTube so you don't miss anything come out of the world of Knafs!

See you next time!
