*_This knife would be stuuuupid sexy with a mirror DLC blade with the top flat being a horizontal hand rubbed DLC finish... the diamond texture would looks absolutely stunning in a matte black DLC to top it all off! Wooooofola!!!_*
I love my Atom, too. They carbonize the Ti liners really well and even if there is some small lock stick at first, it goes away. It’s just such a great design.
The Liners are titanium.
I purged almost everything a while back. Out of 40+ knives my neutron 2 is one of the only ones I still have. Needless to say its creeping up there again with all these bada** pieces coming out. Trm is awesome and their 20cv is done great. I believe both liners are tapped and when you purchase one they will tap out the scale. Obviously still right handed liner lock. And yes its all Ti. Liners hardware and clip. And i just cleaned mine out and polished the washers. There are 3 long screws that go through the liner barrel spacers and into the other liner. Solid construction.
You prefer the Neutron 2 over the Atom?
@@2212mjm I do. But only because I rather a 3" blade over a 3.5" blade. But I'm thinking about selling one of my Neutrons for an atom to have both again.
This knife is in my top 5 must get knives right now! I’d also say TRM’s entire catalog is probably somewhere in my top 20. I love their aesthetic, blade geometry and thickness, quality, country of manufacturing, and just all the stuff they offer for such a small operation. Love the review and I definitely appreciate where you are coming from recommending a knife that costs well over 300 bucks to pretty much everyone.
I bought the neutron first and i really prefer the atom over it. I bought orings off etsy (which were cheaper, and more color options), and they took a bit more effort to fit onto the atom (because they were sized for neutron), but it still does the trick-just looks a little small.
Mine in linen micarta is my favorite summer knife. Slim, light, and it cuts very well.
Glad you finally “found” this. Yes, went from an ok knife in G10 to my third fav USA-made knife in Ti. And diamond! Go MC!
Out of curiosity. What are the other 2?
Sebenza and XM-18
@@scottsierra_bound3162 interesting and good to know.
Blessings MC! Almost 300k! 👏
Hi Complex. I’m glad to announce I’m getting my Neutron 2 in the mail tomorrow,I’m so stoked. The atom is still cheaper than the Benchmade Skinny. I’m just saying.
The Tromatom is beautiful. Looking forward to this
I have to have one. Gorgeous.
I have the diamond one...its AMAZING!
Atom or neutron
@thewaterwarrior9817 I have both, but the Atom fits my XL hand better.
Oooh! Gonna be a very lucky somebody at the 300K giveaway! Thanks MC!
Gorgeous diamond texture
My max for buying a knife is $250. I busted that budget to order the Paul Munko PM2, and at some point I'd bust it to order the diamond textured Atom.
I went the hard way and got lucky with the Jade G10 knife $210, and was able to get the textured titanium scales $230 1 week later. Total price 210+230=$440 for the hard way. Along with $10 shipping for each purchase. 🤦♂️🤣
That is some beautiful texturing
Just got back from blade show west. Give me an Atom/Neutron with bar lock, and I’m sold.
I actually have both in the Neutron and love them both.. Just the first titanium set on the atom but will be getting the new ones once they pop back up again.. Although I love the titanium I actually prefer the G-10 they use for a work knife
TRM bumped their prices recently. It’s now $405 for diamond textured and $385 for smooth.
Have you seen any for sale at that price or just the place holder price?
A buddy and I were discussing this last night. If they don’t cut out enough for left handed deployment it kinda ruins the experience of some knives with thumb studs.
Grab some 6mm o rings for the clip side. Those fit and don’t rub against the scales.
Just my identical version in... awesome, but not a big fan of the handle to blade ratio.
I Like that Diamond texturing but I Might like the Pinstripe better. IDK whichever is available first since they aerse hard to Get. Awesome knife Mc...
The “smooth” contoured ti scales are the pinstriped ones. There are no flat or totally untextured ti atom scales to date.
I think it's crazy that the thumbstuds haven't been updated by now..
0/10 logo slap...man i love this knife, especially in those scales!
I love titanium
I mean, they could just make left hand milled scales. They already make swappable scales. Basically just copy pasta the clip relief program to the other scale. I’m positive that’s how that works 😂
Trm kills it!! Great share as always MC!
Love my ti atom!
Is there no where to buy this? All the links are dead.
They release their knives in drops and can be pretty competitive to purchase. I know the titanium variants sell really fast but the G10 scaled ones are pretty easy to get. Just google TRM knives and it should be the first hit
I have to fall into the "scales made this a different and better knife" camp. I was tempted to anodize the scales, but settled on polishing the pocket clip and it looks great!
Please left handed version
I am left handed and also interested ✋
Link for the o rings??
I think they come with the knife. If not, you can order them from TRM.
em thangs r purty!
They should make lefty versions, or figure out a backspacer clip that can switch sides.
Also...How about (brace yourselves) no clip?
I think for TRM, though...Their best fix for lefties is to do something with the scales so the clip can be attached to either or neither.
polish those washers
Algo
Poof! Just 13 hours since this video went up, and all gone! Ya got to be quick to get the cool ones.
What? Did you just complain about no pocket clip mount for Lefties? Lok at how gorgeous the show side is. You would deface that with milling at the expense of the other 10 percent of the population!?!? I, as a leftie, am disappointed in you. I own one just like yours and wouldnt change a God damn thing. Lastly, i just read this and realize it sounds very serious... im being a bit facetious.😂 also... i realize, like my wife always tells me, i was a bit premature... in my criticism.😮
Inflation? The White House says there isn’t any inflation. Came here for a knife review and I get conspiracy theories
