based on his personal biases.

He always states that and says it's HIS OPINION. He always makes great points and I tend to agree with them. If you ever handle a Spyderco you realize how nice having jimping is.

he pays for subscriptions and gets a cut from companies that he recommends.

No shot. I think his sincerity and unbiased reviews are transparent especially when he blasts a product from a company he loves. i.e. Recently tore the BLACKHAWK Knoxx Stock apart.

lol. I actually bought my current knife based on his review. On that knife, the blade and handle are jimped, but the locking mechanism which sits between the scales is not jimped. He pointed out that he wish it were more jimped which made me laugh. I agree that jimping is kind of nice, but considering that you already have a steep thumb ramp the jimping is not super necessary.

Just because his reviews are candid doesn't mean he isn't getting a cut from the companies to which he has a promo code and link on his channel homepage. I still watch his videos, but it is something to think about. Also, I like my other subscriptions if I really want to learn the ins and outs of a gun.

Enough about nutnfancy. Back to the 1911s.
