Axwell Wallet REVIEW; the Ridge is DONE!

first

Count me out. Overpriced and redundant. Already have the Ridge and don't carry it often anymore. Just lost my interest in metal wallets in general and sandwich wallets in particular.

magnets. keep them away from ur cards

I hate these goofy metal wallets! The younger generation has no idea the beauty of leather. Pity.
It seems they are looking for clips, injection of cards, and just flash.
Give me a fine leather from America or Europe any day. Screw the Chinese copy crap. Wew, it felt good commenting.
This thing is absolutely bs! Lol!!

It looks ugly af tho 😔

$145 lol

$145 for what? A stolen design?

The plates being easily removable is actually a big NO for me. Especially with using the cash strap or money clip cause it can easily come off when getting cash in and out and that's going to be very annoying. I would definitely prefer the plates to be solidly secured. And magnets on a wallet is always a negative for me. None of the wallets in my collection uses magnets. Plus, compared to the Ridge, this wallet looks ugly. I can't believe you scored this one so high, especially in functionality.

Meh....ill stick with leather. I prefer the xstow vs sandwich style if i had to go metal though

I'm almost at the point where I never need a wallet. Apple Watch.

I own a copper Axwell and it’s a heavy wallet. I own a couple of Ridge wallets too and let me tell you the Rossm wallet is my favorite of the bunch. It’s the cheapest as far as price point goes but it does open to you owning different styles. Love it. Oh and stay away from the Aviator wallet. Hated it! Very cheaply made.

No way

I have the flipside wallet and love it

I have that wallet like it better than the ridge as you can change the plates

Big Skinny compact bi-fold sport is the best wallet in the entire world. Take it to the bank!

The price is way too high ! 0.5 out of 5 !

That price! 😂

Magnets are a horrible idea

Price and Usabillity kind of deal breaker for me 145 bucks for that? Big No

I have both a Ridge and Aviator wallet. The Ridge is really well made and feels solid, but right now, I'm just using it for gift cards. The Aviator is my every day wallet. Small differences, but usability is so much better.

Interesting that you would describe this clunky, magnetized together, awkward, insecure, ridge knockoff “more sophisticated.” I guess I have a very different definition of sophisticated.

I think Aviator with the pull strap is the best in my opinion but right now I’m using an Ashland Leather Vertical Bugs Moran in Natural Shell Cordovan and it is sweeet

The whole thing about fake Damascus steel is so asinine.
While ancient Damascus steel is lost to time, modern Damascus steel still exists, and is produced by forging different steels together.
Fake Damascus steel means a pattern was applied to a single piece of steel to mimic a Damascus pattern (e.g. by laser etching a piece of stainless).

You can see a massive price and quality difference between real and fake Damascus steels.
Trying to claim all modern Damascus steel is fake sounds defensive and isn't productive.

Both ridge and axwell suck.

These kinds of wallets should not be over $50 at max!

I've been watching your channel for a while now, and I still don't think these minimalist steel wallets are for me. I still swear by my generic leather trifold wallet. I like how you review stuff though. Hope you branch out to larger bag or pouches. Though I can see some stuff like that edc pouch you review recently. Good stuff.

Nice review. Very unappealing product.

They have priced themselves FAR out of the market IMO. Someone's a bit greedy.

hey there. I was confused between the ekster aluminium or carbon cardholder. Which one will hold on for the long term? To be specific, brushed aluminium black vs the forged carbonfiber

The price and I’m aggressive wit my wallet this would piss me off coming apart all the time HARD PASS. This is not for men

Good morning @wallettopia! Can you suggest me a wallet with a hinge for the coins ?

Yea don’t like this to many removable pieces I use the ridge and love it simple and less pieces to lose

Way too high for me. ❤

Aviator wallet has a better and more functional design imo

Is there any slim and small from pocket cash wallet. No card wallet plz

kinda ugly and 0% classy

How strong are the magnets?

Axwell has a 3rd magent revision and new lineup coming in Jan (?) Or at least early next year. Would be nice to see an updated review then.

I think this guy hates Ridge 😂

Does anybody understand??!!.. that magnets lose there power over time!!..

I just received my order. Two axwell wallets. I'm definitely not impressed. I returned a ridge, thinking these were better. Definitely not. The cash wrap is not tight enough to hold cash, even if I fold it multiple times with 6 bills. One of the wallets came with a knick on one of the corners, and some kind of residue around the wallet. Hopefully I can return them.

Yeah adjust volume one a wallet with weak magnets especially on the side where you hold your money so that so there's a risk of you not only losing that plate but the wad of cash that you put in it as well because that money will add weight and those magnets are not very strong...

Definitely went back to my Ridge wallet.
There is a reason why Ridge is King... sometimes you don't need to reinvent the wheel...
