I been watching Nutns Videos for about a year or so now and i like and dislike him. Just like every other human on earth he seems to have his ups and downs to who he is. I Just did a search for him on the forum and turned up like 10 posts not even and was wondering what ya guys think of him? I was kinda expecting to see a decent amount of Both good and bad posts on him but little to nothing kinda surprised me. Dunno just wondering if there was a reason towards this. I was honestly expecting a sorta "bear grylls esc" thought towards him.

(EDITED)

I thought everyone might enjoy a few of his Videos from SHOT show. Ill Post his Knife Booth Videos in which he talks with some of the actual Designers who created the knifes they talk about.

Go to youtube and search nutnfancy - tons of helpful vids. His personality though... a bit plus and a bit minus

NutNfancy has some good videos. I particularily like the hiking videos he does with his son.

As for the merits of his personality et al, I'll pass as there are already enough senseless debates on lesser forums then ETS that further debating it here is pointless.

I often find his gear reviews to be tedious and long winded. A half hour video on a multitool is just too long.

Sometimes he is dead on, and other times I kind of miss the point on what he is trying to say.

I am inclined to think his earlier videos that had the original Youtube time limit of ten minutes were a lot better most times.

He does some pretty good hiking and backpacking stuff, and outdoor gear reviews.

His first aid videos are pretty good, but a lot longer than necessary.

He did a pretty decent urban survival kit series that needed to be edited from an hour and a half down to about 15 minutes. But it was still worth watching.

i was watching his tent reviews this AM..i stay away from the knifes and such.seems just fine for a Youtube video,the trick to those is watch a few posters run reviews of the same gear to get a good idea of the quality and usefulness.

I Agree the only times i watch the entire review is if it is of something I really dig or wanted before the review. I often skip threw more then half of a review just to get the keypoints.

I like NutNFancy's info, it is very useful, but I find he is generally overtalkative. Every one of his vids I've seen could provide the same amount of info in half the time... although I haven't seen any of his recent vids.
