he seemed really rude / arrogant (or cocky) in this video.  I hope the wingman still has screws, and not rivets, when they are released.. I'd like to replace that clam shell package opener with something.

Good grief Why did he wait forever to post this?

And dont be talking about rivets, I'm planning on pulling a surgical procedure as soon as these come out to get a wingkick, for edc, and a sideman for the car. 

I knew I saw a ruler on back of the file in the other video, though I still don't recall any official mention.

I think it was deliberate. He means he's going to swap some tools around between the two models. I'm thinking about doing the same.

I noticed the same thing on all his Shot Show vids.  I used to be a real Nutnfancy fan boy, but I can't even watch his new stuff. 

There's some good info in this vid, but not much I didn't already know from coming around here.

He's always kinda been that way.  These days with the generally much longer videos there's less information and more "him".

However he generally does quite in-depth, reasonably well-balanced reviews and has a serious bully pulpit going so I'm sure manufacturers are happy to talk to him anyways.

As irritating as him constantly saying "nutnfancy" every freaking sentence (among other things) is, I still watch his videos just because they have good information.

Though his MT reviews are very much lacking, it's the only place where his "non-biased" approach seems to fall apart. I get that the Charge TTi is a great tool, but you don't have to compare everything to it in head-to-head combat, whatever happened to reviewing things based on their own merits?

Except the scissor orgy, I thought he did OK.
Brad however seemed pissed.
