We always get excited about showing off knives. Well, not everyone. Dan tends to cut himself and not like knives. For the rest of us, we found a pretty cool knife by a well known knife manufacturer, Blackhawk. Now only does the company have a cool name, but it has a cool knife also. The Hornet 2 is a cool to the touch kind of knife. With G-10 scales, you don’t ever have to worry about losing grip.
Lightweight, easy to open and perfect for an EDC. For you knife fan addicts who don’t want to pay for a knife, but want a quality EDC, this might be your knife.
What We Like
- Quality feel, solid
- Easy to open
- Very nice feel for a small or medium size hand
- Nice handle
- Weight
What We Don’t Like
- If you have a larger hand, you might not like the feel. Might be better off going with a knife with a longer handle.

I Think there is only ONE knife video where Dan didn’t cut/almost cut himself.we shouldn’t allow him near sharp things!
lol
Eric I truly understand your love of knives. I have also expressed my fondness for these pointy tools. How can you not appreciate the beauty of these tools. The Hornet 2 looks like a good tactical knife & good edc blade, not to small or big. Thanks for introducing this brand which I visited a few weeks ago or so. Keep up the great knife reviews. Laters TIA
Blackhawk is nice..i use to have one..did the job… The smith and wesson that u guys had on the fridays video suck…ive had them and they are junk..they make a mean revolver tho, thats for dam sure.. 44 mag my bro had was quality
nice knife..
lol. VERY TRUE…
just a hint, if the knife is branded as colt or S&W etc. it is probably a cheaply made knife that is rebranded. if you want a good traditional jigged bone pocket knife look at case or if you want an amazing tactical/ speed assisted opening knife look at Zero tolerance first and then Kershaw or for a good quality fixed blade look at Buck knives, do not get their assisted opening knives, I had two of them and they both broke within a year of purchase and use. All of the brands are reasonably affordable and yes there are better brands but they come at a price. by the way congrats to whoever gets the free stuff from Eric’s Garage.
Thank Brody! Haven’t see n you in a while.
Hey Dan, just been busy but haven’t missed a video yet. ps I always watch the entire video you guys are to funny for me to miss any of it.
Ha, Thanks!
I am agree with the conclusion. The Black hawk Hornet II is rock-solid folding pocket knife that have super smooth actions and is built for the long haul. I liked the ambidextrous thumb stud most. you’ll find this knife is truly versatile and dependable cutting tool that have the feel of something precious.
