Hello everyone, and welcome back to another Jimping with Jacrispy blog review! Today, we’re diving into a brand-new release from WE Knife—the Bougie Banter. If you're a fan of high-quality EDC knives, you're in for a treat. But before we get started, don’t forget to check out our other blog reviews and our YouTube channel for more knife content. Now, let's get into today’s review!

Unboxing Experience

Let’s kick things off with the unboxing experience. The WE Knife Bougie Banter comes in a sleek, modern box that reflects the quality of the knife inside. The box is dark in color with the WE Knife logo emblazoned on the front in a simple, yet refined font. It’s minimalistic but still screams premium quality. On the back, you’ll find some basic details about the product and the brand. Inside, you’ll find the knife neatly nestled in a padded foam insert to keep it secure during shipping. Along with the knife, you’ll get a cleaning cloth to keep your blade looking pristine, and some stickers to add to your collection (because who doesn’t love a good sticker?).

Handle and Design

Moving on to the knife itself, let’s talk about the handle. The Bougie Banter features a gorgeous blue titanium handle that not only looks stunning but also offers durability and a comfortable grip. The titanium finish gives it a nice, sleek feel, and it’s both lightweight and tough, making it perfect for everyday carry. There's also a lanyard hole, which is always a nice touch if you like to add a bit of personal flair to your EDC setup. The size and ergonomics are well thought out, with a handle length of 3.67 inches that fits comfortably in most hands.

Blade and Functionality

The real star of the show, however, is the blade. The Bougie Banter comes equipped with a 2.91-inch S45VN steel blade, known for its excellent edge retention and corrosion resistance—perfect for all your daily cutting tasks. The blade style is a drop point, which is versatile and perfect for slicing. The black stonewashed finish not only looks fantastic but also helps hide scratches and wear, so your knife will stay looking good as new.

The blade grind is flat, ensuring clean, precise cuts. There’s also some jimping on the spine of the blade, which provides extra traction for your thumb when you need more control. And yes, you’ll find thumb studs on both sides, which allow for easy one-handed opening. The crossbar lock mechanism ensures a secure, reliable lockup, making this knife safe and easy to use.
