Why Every New Knife Feels the Same

This week, we take a hard look at the knife world…and what’s wrong with it. A viewer from the UK sent in a confession about paying nearly $900 for a McNees PM MAC 2 3.5 after taxes and customs. It got me thinking about how we got here—not just the prices, but the endless options, the hype, and the loss of the real story behind the gear. It’s not just about money anymore. It’s about meaning.
