- Since Cold Steel was purchased by GSM some of the former people have started new companies like Ric Valdez, who formed the new company Ocaso Knives. In this video I check out some of the first models the Strategy from master knife maker Mike Wallace, and the Solstice from Tri-ad and Espada XL designer Andrew Demko. While Cold Steel is known for their massive murder weapons Ocaso knives focused on every day carry and Gentleman's knives.
Ocaso knives can be purchased directly from their website:

Mr. AKB thanks for taking the time to check out our first knives your videos are always a blast.
Thanks again!
Ric Valdez - always helpful, always a gentleman. Much Respect Ric and crew. Thanks to all of you for what you do, what you create. Great to see these units / design and function 100% on!
"Dropping it in the toilet isn't washing it." Great, I've been doing a lot of chores wrong.
For video storage, have you tried the little shelf by the car's rear window? VHS loves it there
Thanks for taking the time to review the Solstice and Strategy from Ocaso Knives. The commentary as always was superb.
Can’t help to see a bit of the crkt ceo in the solstice. So yes I want one.
Those are some handsome knives, Mr. AdvancedKnifeBro! And I appreciate that the pocket clip is ambidextrous!
Love the video! As always man. And those are some pretty nice knives!
Smoking Pall Mall Menthols like a BOSS! Very nice choice
Still top 3 favorite knife channels, love your content bro. 👌
For the hair I'd recommend looking into oils. I use a mix of rosemary and peppermint oil. I put it in a little spray bottle and spray it onto my scalp every morning and night. My hair is a lot fuller now after 3 months.
One issue with the oils is that they can cause rashes if you have sensitive skin.
They look very nice, that slim solstice is cool.
Well, my goodness...Many moni, say me say many, many, many...I do believe that's the first ever Cold Steel-adjacent knife review to drop a Fugees line. Well done, AKB! It's permissible to substitute the phrase "Lynn's former sparring partner" for "Former Cold Steel guy". Just wanted to let you know
14C28N would have been a better choice than K110 in my view. The Solstice is slicker and less bland, especially in the red Dark Matter cf. Thanks for the info on the new stuff.
i think youre a better writer than most Hollywood writers these days
Very nice first knife!
I love this guy!
Damn. He got me, I am poopin
I still miss the blue lines 😞
Thanks for doing what you do man! Hilarious as always!
I really liked the look and balance of that strategy when I saw it on KC new knives may have to check it, looks similar to the engage lines….
I am still lost without the blue lines…. 😢
Those are very nice blade and the cases are amazing!
Damn, look at AKB with the casual Fugees reference 👏 These are interesting but I do kind of wish Lynn would just start Coldsteel 2.0…
Thanks bro
Thank you!!!
Nice 😊
DUDE!!!! You are hilarious! Awesome video!!!
That's quite the change of scenery. Fair play to him!!
That cigarette bit killed me 😂
I’ve had this pack of cigarettes for years. I think it first shows up in a condor video.
Darn it!
I think I am wearing the same pants right now!
GOAT pants though!
Lifting the clip with the fingernail is me on a few knives , haha. Some clips are really nice but the fingernail ones hold best for shorts like the bugout . Sometimes too good and I pull out a rabbit ear with the knife hanging 😂.
Maybe they OD'd on giant knives and are compensating for all those years of monster blades.
I miss the old' phosphor bronze washers. They seemed smoother and had less things to go wrong with them.
I agree, that's why I never buy a knife with bearings that requires a custom tool to open and clean 👍
Im gonna use that quote in job interviews. "My extreme slowness is an asset." 😂
Cool knife. Not as cool as Lynn's hidden OF page but pretty cool.
A favorite!
Right on
Look like they’re good for the ongoing threat of cardboard.
I gave up and shaved my head more than 10 years ago. Still need a hat tho, to prevent the sun burns when I go outside. That was a lucky drop after the batoning!
YES
1:09 I once dropped my Boker Slike into the toilet, and I can confirm: Dropping it into the toilet is NOT washing it. And oh lord how I cleaned it afterwards and my hands and the knife and my handy and the knife and my hands and the knife; I forgot how many times!
Been watching all your videos, do the tops expat at some point yeah?
The solstice kind of looks a high tech switchblade, like a cold steel for cyberpunk 2077.
Slipping the batoning in at the very end, Sly Knife Bro.
I didn’t want any complaints
@@AdvancedKnifeBro If I knew that was the case, I would have phrased it as a complaint
I think the choice to not wear underwear was a strategy an advanced strategy…😂
Ever wonder if you needed surgery which knife you'd pick? The titanium Solstice would be mine. Uncoated blade, obviously. Is it autoclave safe?
Too many MCs, not enough mics. YES!!!
You: these Vs the guy she tells you not to worry about: Espada XL
Are they smooth operators?
3:22 might need to start including cargo pants thickness in your specs
I bet you didn’t know this about me but I like to fight with my knives while I watch these videos. Yeah. It is that cool.
I can see the appeal of both.
My guess on how a guy goes from carrying EspadaXL to carrying a smaller knife(which is every other blade on the planet) is that while seated, he dropped his EspadaXL between his legs&chopped off his manhood. It's the only thing that makes any sense. I could be wrong, but I don't think so.😂😂😂 killer blades&killer vid knife bro!!
First time I've seen gorilla tape on a cig box WITHOUT a 1 hitter inside.
Why aren’t you doing stand up. When u need a manager holler!
For all you James Bond knife bros, stylish slim fit cargo pants/shorts.🧐
Much better made in Taiwan than China, but steep prices. Hilarious commentary, as always. Hope you had a good Father's day.
LOL that thumbnail looks like one of those Darwin-Fish-Eating-Jesus-Fish bumper stickers.
Spydercos dont use bearings and theyre better for it. Only saying bc you told me not to
I mean I have fun with the video, and I am smiling and all that, but that underwear joke really cracked me up!
K110 is just D2 with a monocle and top hat
Still no meatloaf, do you even see me here AKB???
Ok.
Once more then.

Hai Patreons!!
imagine this brand start making machetes or lawn swords should be awesome
Hey AKB, Are you writing for the channel nothing but knives? The dialogue sounds a lot like yours. The dudes even kind of look like you. They got hot girls though.
I do not know anything about them
I like when an OEM focuses on making it a good knife first. Design is whatever, just make sure it’s gonna last me a long while and I’ll spend some $ ☝️
Lynn is still built like Grimace but now he has a gun! Big purple monster stealing cheeseburgers
Yo! what happened to the Patreon list? got way shorter! can someone please tell Metal Complex my name is above his and bigger than his
So someone new joined the other day… and for several years I’ve just been adding names- and rarely removing them. But I decided to just list the ones that are currently active and clean it up. For several years I usually average 95 ish… and this is that. I’ll probably let it coast again for a while but it’s been something I’ve been meaning to do for a while. I had already uploaded it when the new guy joined so I did a quick re-edit without re-recording. No big losses of patrons- just some housekeeping. Thanks for sticking with me dude!!!!
@@AdvancedKnifeBro I love that you do the Patreon list. I figured it was just a clean up. I appreciate it. Looking good 💯
Last year it was the revamped dimensions card this year it’s cleaning up the patron list. Baby steps
Engagement comment
Engagement comment acknowledged!
@@AdvancedKnifeBro 😂
I don’t want bearings because they will have to be replaced my knife is made of full titanium no rust
Great video! Sorry I don't have anything funny to add. I'm a terrible subscriber.
I am on my phone poop’n
🎉😂❤❤killer blades
fine, i'll smoke
That’s the spirit
You mentioned the Cold Steel philosophy when discussing the pocket clips. I don't think you are allowed to mention the Cold Steel Philosophy on any knife with a blade less then 5.5 inches in length, you may want to consult your lawyer.
no theres nothing wrong with cigarettes (except for Pall Malls 🤮)
Looks kinda Soggy
Finally one of these new companies doesn't make their knives in China! Taiwanese production quality is consistently much better. Plus you get to support a free people rather than a slave state. Although I guess just like Demko it's only CS offshoots that are able to find connections in Taiwan...
Your not supposed to baton with a folder, your going to cut your fingers off
Oh look a new guy!
AKB must be working hard on a new video right meow!
Ones dropping today and lord willing a king sharpening comparison video next week.
@@AdvancedKnifeBro By the Gods of steel!
That's great news! Looking forward to both of them!
Okay, the following has nothing to do with this video, but I need to get it off my chest!
I don't like half stops very much!
Just recently I cut into the side of my index finger because I closed the knife with my thumb (small slipjoint Barlow) and it just WHACKED into the half stop and right into the side of my index finger!
Very unsafe!
But besides that the snappy go choppy is fun to play with, it's just not very save though.
I rather have that regular slipjoint that just snaps into the handle and not into a half stop. Lucky me it was not a deep cut though.
Hi Patreons!
