What a stupid name for a knife… Pole Star. Maybe Spyderco should have gotten the Swedes to make it for them then the name would have been a little more fitting. Personally, I will forever refer to that knife as the Porn Star. I’ve been drinking too.
What boots were you wearing when cutting the baby box up.? Thanks for the video.
Is it me or do I detect a hint of sarcasm in your voice?
No baton testing…come on man this is obviously made to be used in an urban survival situation, never know people may have to fell a tree or something so they can make a fishing rod for the line in their survival grenade.
Good review, gargle with whiskey, honey, & lemon to help your voice.
Every time you speak the sound goes all whacky
Nice shoes or boots or whatever
I agree that people worry too much about the blade steel. Though 8Cr13MoV is adequate, there is too much variation in the heat treatement to draw a general conclusion, except that the Chinese makers employed by Spyderco seem to do it well. That said, even the lowly Spyderco Tenacious has been cloned by Chinese makers willing to make them even cheaper and with lesser materials. So, be careful, even if you are seeking the Chinese produced Spyderco budget line.
if they made the tenacious with a higher quality steel, it’d be my favorite. Wait, no, it’s my favorite, but I wish it was made with better steel. Yea that.
Pls fix the audio
How much $ to spend on a polestar? A question I’ve considered before…
“Scratchy-voice Rambler” has a nice ring to it, especially with a thick cajun accent. “Dere he goes again dah’, Dat Scratchy-Voice Rambla!”
I was going to buy Polestar today, but I said I should wait till the AKB will do review of it. AKB, do u mastered the mind Control to the perfection ?
What’s up with the audio? Sounds weird.
Is the black blade on the tenasious just a black paint?
Something changed about your channel, I think it’s the audio. It sounds much flatter now, for reference I am comparing this video to the “How to Properly Treat Your Cheap or Expensive Pocket Knife” video. Just letting you know, keep up the good work!
Jesus he’s raping those poor knives, half expected him to lick them, taste test
I don’t know if you know this, but you have a lot of different Spyderco knives. People who work at Spyderco saw that comparison shot and went, “Dang, that’s a lot of Spyderco’s.” But thanks for putting your addictions to work for my entertainment. 🙂 I appreciate you.
IIRC, the Polestar got its handle shape from the Byrd Raven 2 & used the blade profile & shape from the Tenacious. I do prefer the choil that the Byrd Raven 2 has. It also uses CTS BD1 steel.

Separate video required on how to baton that like button
Thumbs up for slicing that tar baby
Ok! I buttoned the like baton!
I would absolutely love a Tenacious with better steel and scale material but I really don’t like that pointy back end. That’s almost a deal breaker. Think I’ll stick with my Endura’s and PM2’s.
“The Polestar….someone over at Spyderco has a crush on a stripper.” Only 30 seconds in and I’m already done for. Seriously man, you need to give stand up a shot.
Have you tried or reviewed the spyderco resilience? Its massive but figured if anyone would like it you would
Your voice made it sound like you weren’t into this review at all.
It is gratifying to know that there are knives that offer the excitement, visual appeal and sexiness of a 1968 Doddge Dart sedan (standard shift).
Not a huge fan of the handle scales tbh i wish they stuck with either a bland black g10 or did the 360° frn grippy scales
I didn’t remember the song at first. But then I imagined you singing it with a shit-ton of autotune.
Still can’t beat an Endura or a Delica.
I’m in love with a stripper
She rocking, she rollin
She workin that pole 😀
