Knafs@Nite - August 16, 2024

Hello Everyone and welcome to the latest episode of Knafs@Nite!

This is our weekly video round-up where we share with you all the exciting things about Knafs and the world around us.

Guess who's back? Austin's back and he's up for eating a piece of mystery meat that arrived in the mail. And you all just thought he was obsessed with potato chips!

Also! The guys are going to talk about the in's and out's of Kickstarter and the Lunar edition of the Lander 3. But that's just the tip of the iceberg.

Let's dive in!

The News 

@SandTguy Questions the Need For Kickstarter

We're currently running our Kickstarter campaign for our Lander 4. This is our 4th Kickstarter campaign and we're doing it for good reasons. Ben and Austin dive into those reasons and talk about some of the brands that inspired them to live out this dream as well as some of the newer brands on the block.

Also, have you ever heard of the CRKT Merlin? Ben brings up this 20 year-old attempt at innovation to support the need for internet feedback which in itself supports the need for Kickstarter.

It's the circle of life!

@BeardaBaconTech Ponders the Price of the Lander 4

Don't worry, buddy - we're keeping our prices on brand. This isn't a money grab - it's chance for us to bring you even more slicing solutions at reasonable prices.

@vanrooyendavid Doesn't Like Ben's Hat

Ben and Austin take a sniff and show off our brand new 5-panel hat. Which, if we may say so, really slaps. Grab one here.

Lunar Landers!

If you're not familiar with our Lunar Landers, Austin and Ben talk about the genesis of these limited knives as well as when you can get your hands on the latest Lunar Lander 3 (which literally launched while you were reading this).

If you want to know about these limited launches as well as some of the other cool stuff we're doing on Planet Knafs, sign up for our newsletter. You can sign up by scrolling to the bottom of any of our webpages on our site!

Moon Crew Moment

Joe Makes His Own Leather Tool Burrito

Let's get real here - who doesn't love leather and knives together? Ben and Austin approve.

Marc Makes A Wharnnie!

Though this one may be Photoshopped, the ones we're working on behind the scenes may become very real. Stay tuned!

Esteban Snags A GEM At Our Sidewalk Sale

Esteban took a blemish knife that he picked up at our sidewalk sale and customized it. He claims he couldn't find anything wrong with it. He might be right. We're wicked picky. 

To quote Austin "Our blemishes are 95% perfect knives".

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.

Edge of Intelligence

Austin pulls out an OG Banter to open this week's AI letters. It becomes a touching moment.

Anyway, this week does not disappoint. Look for an appearance by AI's attempt at recreating Space Kitty. As well as the improper handling of a fixed blade in space and flying lizards.

Also, we get a look at Jamie who just so happens to be WICKED tall.

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:

Ken Onion and Karbon Knives

Ben and Austin go over Ken Onion's Karbon Flatline. This Barlow style pocket knife is a hot take on a classic design. Grandpa would be proud and impressed to know you're carrying one around. We all know Ken would!

This is always and unfiltered journey into a world of wonder. There's some love, some Seinfeld, and this week's second Lion King reference...

Our friend Brentley sent the guys some meat to try out. It smells good. Looks good. And you'll have to watch to see how it all goes down.

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's product is our Astrodude T-Shirt. This was our 2023 Blade Show West T and we're down to smalls. Soft and supple, grab an Astrodude today!

Fresh Prints

This weeks prints are both exciting and strange. And that's the way we like it!

This nifty widget allows you to take our leather honing strop and pocket sharpener and set it up into an easy-to-use guide. You can pick up the Docking Station Guide alone or bundled as the Loaded Docking Station.

Technicolor Snek!

This is a very cool and very intricate design that involves hours of 3D printing as well as every color of the rainbow. This leads to Ben admitting that he believes we all may end up living on Mars and we don't think he's wrong.

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!
