DEMO Reviewed in Knives Illustrated Magazine
"I put the Billy Waugh DEMO through a gauntlet of chores unsuitable for most folding knives. Not actual abuse, but riding that fine line."
This is not one of the usual knife reviews on YouTube - get ready to be wowed. ChoirBoyz Cutlery takes you on a review journey of the Stonewashed DEMO. He puts it through some legit in-the-field tests, but more importantly, shows you the various features in action and under stress.
If you are on the fence about if this knife becoming the next in your collection, watch this video. It should eliminate any doubt surrounding its capabilities and functionality.
The first one-of-a-kind custom DEMO edition is inspired by Billy Waugh's purple heart gained in Vietnam. He earned a total of 8 Purple Hearts, in fact, for wounds in combat. It was during the Battle of Bong Son that he sustained multiple shots and was left for dead.
Waugh says of the day,"It sounds like the punch line to a bad joke, but you know it’s a bad day when the best thing about it is getting shot in the head.”
One of the most obvious and interesting features of the Billy Waugh DEMO knife is its Awl. This is one of the key features that had to be included when the knife was being designed. Typically, an awl is seen on a multitool, not as part of a knife. Here is your in-depth look at what an Awl can be used for and how this one is designed.
