Love your content man. I’m wondering between AD20.5 20cv and quiet carry drift large which one would you pick and why?

Honestly got my auto adamas used from a gun shop and I’m blown away with the sharpness prettt sure it still has the factory edge

I heard you say you used basswood strops with diamond emulsion. How do you like it, i heard some people say it’s better than leather, what have your experiences been

Companies are screwing us over when they market an expensive steel, upcharge the price, and Rockwell it to under 60.

I carry the crkt Dextro. Its an awesome knife and is D2. Ive never had such a difficult time trying to get a knife razor sharp😅 all my other knives i can get scary sharp, but the Dextro is a lot more tricky IMO. I can get it to shave my hair, but it wont cut paper well. Super weird.

Thanks for the content. I do enjoy the data you provide. Those thumb studs are right in the way. Having to remove studs to sharpen means having to remove them for stropping too. No thanks. Also, they’re right in the cutting path so the usable blade is even smaller than it seems. Happy new year

Is it crunching down on the bearings when you tighten super tight like that

A drop of oil on the bearings and bar as soon as you buy it makes all the difference.

I have AD20.5s in both AUS10A and D2 and they both are equally great and came razor sharp with no burrs. Payed $90 each direct from Demko. Would buy again! 👍🏻

Hey there. How did the offset clip feel in comparison to the regular deep carry that you have on your knife? It seems like the hole in the offset would be a hotspot. Thanks.

One of the best utility cutter style knives ever made for 30 bucks or less. Hell Midway has them right now for 15.99 lol. Crazy good!

K390 and Cruwear are my top 2

I feel like freehand is the way to go

Really inspired by ur videos, thank u so much!😁

Would love to see you test CJRB s90v. Love the videos!!

I'm glad I found this video. I got one coming. I was planning on rounding off the tail and part of the birds beak. Looks like I'm gonna be doing the skinny mod as well. I have a 4" bench top belt sander with 6" wheel. I'm planning on disassembling it, then putting all 4 pieces together and using tape to secure it, so I can sand it all together. I would appreciate your input. Tips and pointers. Thanks.

I want the mod I have cruwear pm2

❤

I've got plen̈ty aus10 knives. Great all rounder steel. Everything's a tradeoff. ❤️🇦🇺❤️🇺🇸🪃🥷🌏✅️😊

👍🖖

Could you please test the Spyderco CTS micro-melt pd 1 steel?

According to OUTDOORS55, the heat treat and Rockwell hardness for these knives are good. However, the way they're sharpened at the factory screws up the heat treat on the apex. That's why they do dull so fast.

FYI - Spyderco dropped the Para 3 LW in 15v (Knife Center $153) They will be hard to get IMO when the run sells out. Great Summer carry knife!

Looking forward to seeing the "Walmart" knives fade from the top of the discussions in the knife community. GP Knives has a Spyderco exclusive, Smock in Rex 45 (sold out for now) hoping to get the version without the coating when it comes out. The Manix2 in Rex45 has been my EDC for the past 6 months. The knife has been touched up one time on a Spyderco medium grit ceramic stone. The edge came right back to shaving sharp in under a minute. Thank you for taking the time to make the video! 😎👍

The thing I like about SPY27 is how well it responds to a strop for a powdered steel.

Ok hold your hand up if youve spent $10 or more for an adult beverage at a bar or sporting event.

I got that sage 5 in rex 121. Hate it. K390 takes a better edge for me and holds it just as long in my use. I sold my maxamet, kinda wish i could have compared it to my k390. Do you like maxamet better or what?

I've got one of these and they do not hold an edge !!! I tried field dressing a deer with mine this season... The first couple cuts were ok , but by the time i was finished the knife was dull and borderline dangerous trying to cut through soft tissue... It couldn't stay sharp long enough to dress even one, thin skinned whitetail deer !!! About as real world a test I could give this knife and it failed miserably !!!

If the people weren't put a little bit of showing machine oil out it works fine

If you already spent $180 on a Bugout, it's tough to justify not carrying it.

Thanks for the detailed technical review. Mine tested 57.8 on the Rockwell C scale. I like this knife. I have used it for field dressing and skinning deer and it works very well. I really like the orange handle because it is easy to find in pasture grass if I drop it. Every tool in my skinning bucket is day-glow orange just for that purpose.

I appreciate it

If you think that I am in any way I did not mean to come across that way and I apologize if you thought that way I am just trying to help you to show you a better way to end up with a better Edge thank you for your time and patience within this matter

Please don't think that I'm knocking you on anything or disrespecting you

My finest grit that I use on a lot of my blades are upwards of 100,000 Grit

I make them sharpen them repair them restore them and polish them

But take it from someone who's worked with knives practically his whole life I'm 35 now so that's right at 30 years that I've worked with them

Your Technique seems to be really good in spot on and I commend you on that

It takes a little longer but you will end up with a finer and more Keener Edge that will last longer that's more exact

If you give gentle stroking pressure

I believe you can get much higher quality results

And I truly believe you're pressing too hard on the knife blade as you sharpen

Quick question I caught your video on you sharpening your D2 steel knife on here

I bought 1,I love it because if I leave it on a creek bank or in the yard I haven't lost anything important,if I lost my Spyderco is be crying.

i try to stay away from smooth scales. its beautiful, but risky to use

Shoulda titled the video “my hands are softer than baby shit”

Any update on if Roman sent you that m398 test blade?

Glad your back 👍

Can you do more on s390 I can’t find anymore of your past vids don’t know why , but love the vids it’s nice to go back in time ! Sometimes lol

I like it 😊
