I've made several knives with Magnacut and I can attest to how well it sharpens. I've gotten some of my best edges ever with it - just off an 800 grit silicon carbide stone.
Tbo the least amount of Austenite will make sharpening easier. Many other factors involved but with the right ht can help most steels. Some compositions are easier to ht than others for low Austenite.

I’ve seen some very knowledgeable people show MagnaCut to be similar to CPM-4V, especially in its microstructure, but stainless. They group even closer together in edge retention and toughness according Larrin’s testing (author of Knife Steel Nerds and creator of MagnaCut for those who don’t know). Give or take according to heat treatment, Cru-Wear is the next most similar with a little better toughness and a little less edge retention at the same geometry and edge type. MagnaCut is certainly one, if not the most, well rounded high performance steel. I look forward to trying it in the future, but will probably get something in 4V first like the Spyderco Province in order to get a feel for it myself. That way I can be confident once it’s better available. A steel like this will be perfect for bushcraft/edc fixed blades in the humid and salty environment I live in.
You guys still doing great, has been long time for me. However my lionsteel M5 as recommended by you is doing great after some survival modifications. Your hair test it is absolutely insane!!!
Clicked on this video on accident and was about to view a different one. Until it started ended up watching the whole thing and you have a new subscriber for sure. Awesome content!👍🏼
Loved the chicken anything! And wow the introduction to a new… knife.. (steel) I also noticed the kindness increase… you two are so much better that way… (no one was blaming the chicken walking into the fire) best show ever.
Very interesting write up on KnifeSteelnerds about how Dr. Larrin designed this steel. It has the great toughness/edge retention of non-stainless steels like M4/Cruwear/4V but manages to keep all the chromium in solution instead of forming carbides, so it has excellent corrosion resistance and is classified as stainless.
The name of the game for auto industry steels is high hardness and high strength, so there's overlap there. Just usually they're much tougher and less hard, but getting that crumple zone and everything with less weight is steel tech.
When news on magnacut came out I reached out to TRC asking about if they were considering experimenting with it, but no response lol. CRK and Spyderco have seemingly at least played with it a bit, though.
Vanadis 4 Extra and 52100, tick more boxes, for an ideal steel choice, for an outdoors knife (anything exept fishing and that's where Magnacut is the better choice). Ease of sharpening/repairing, is usually ignored, however, it's one of the most important things to consider, for an outdoors knife. Vanadis 4 Extra, sharpens back, like a Carbon steel, which is crazy for it's hardness and edge retention it provides! Ballbearing steel, is the love of my life. Next follows Vanadis 4 Extra, then CPM Cruwear, then CPM 3V. The first 2, are the best material for outdoors knives, I've ever tried.Crazy good stuff! PS Steel is the last, in terms of importance factor, to consider when choosing a knife.
MagnaCut is basically exactly a stainless vanadis 4 extra.. it's the best knife steel out there for most uses. 3V for a competition chopper perhaps for the extra toughness, and carbon steels for blacksmith or forge heat treating.
This is great news for knives. When you're building off of something like this, the possibilities become wider. Bringing the triangle of steel usefulness, strength, abrasion resistance, and toughness to a new level. Thanks Larin
I do wish Rockstead would send you a knife to test. According to them, it should ace your rope test, but I’ll only believe it when I’ve seen an independent test (you or Cedric & Ada). Come on Rockstead, step up to the plate!
Check out Outpost76, Tom hosting outdoors, and Super Steel Steve cut testing. They often get hrc tested, sharpen past the burnt factor edges and test with cardboard to factor out behind the edge thickness that rope cutting is highly varied with.
When I bought my Condor Bushcraft knife, it was $25 and it's still going strong 20 years later // I can't see paying $200 for something I might loose on the trail..
You may not, but I would happily spend that much for a steel that is significantly better (edge retention and toughness) than your average 440/Aus-8/8Cr13Mov steel.
Ease of resharpening? Like if I'm out in the bush and just have a pocket stone; how hard is it to put the edge back after I win a fight with that Kodiak that was eyeing my goats?
@@robertfandel9442 Cold Steel has been sold and they are using Chinese materials and labor now. Get as many of the older models as you can before the inventory is completely gone. I purchased some replacement Tru Flights for ones I've had since they came out and even just a month between the first and second one the steel went from 1055 to the Chinese S50c
I think the new lionsteel m4 in magnacut will be really great. Also ug tools makes the tiny in magnacut now. To quote „master and commander“: what a fascinating modern age we live in.
Magnacut is going to change the knife world mark my words. I think Crucible knows it too, which is why since 2022 they have been making this steel as fast as they can. Now we need to wait till someone cracks the magic rockwell hardness code for this steel.
I like the technology behind CPM 3V because it is very interesting. I also consider 0.8% carbon to be the sweet spot for knives. What I don't like about CPM 3V is that it is exceptionally difficult to work with (shaping and sharpening it). I like that it is borderline stainless steel.
i love my 3V knives, but when you think about it, all these bushcraft and survival knives made out of super steels that are nigh impossible to sharpen in the field/austere environments kind of defeat the original purpose of the tool. People complain that LT Wright's A2 is treated too soft, but that's only so users can sharpen it in the bush with whatever materials may be on hand.
Just carry a small diamond or ceramic hone in your pocket, bag, or a pouch on the knife. What do you expect to find in the bush? Re you thinking a river rock?
@@Unicorn161 I live in CA so I haven't been able to get out into the wild this year because of the fires, so I've been watching a lot of youtube and episodes of Alone. It amazes me how easy it is to lose a ferro rod or diamond plate. It just seems to me like original idea for these knives was if you find yourself in a scenario without specialized tools.
@@Unicorn161 Ceramic or leather can only hone, the problem is, when the knife gets really dull or gets edge damage. That's when a non Super steel wins in the field, to a knife made with Super steel and hardness of 60 hrc and higher!
Do you guys see how difficult it is to loose sharpness on this steel? Chances of you having a dull knife in the wild is so slim, unless you just decide to go live in the wild for years without any equipment.
And even then, you can sharpen it on a rock if you absolutely needed to. Just not as quickly. But it also doesn't dull as quickly when you're in the middle of using it for processing a deer, or something.
I just watched a video from the knife center channel where he mentioned this same steel and how amazing it might be. So it's cool to see that this steel is as good as David from knife center thought that it might wind up being.
MagnaCut does seem like the ultimate steel. From what I've gathered, it's basically M390 with twice the toughness. I LOVE m390, the last decade I've been using a Benchmade barrage 581, and Lionsteel M1 and M4. I love them, but an always aware of the limits of what I can do in relation to it's toughness. This steel seems like it has no deficiencies. I've been surprised at the price of some the knives I've seen come with it, they're not nearly as expensive as the performance of the steel would lead me to think.
Unless you've actually used and tested the stuff for yourself I wouldn't be forming any opinions. And definitely don't base your opinions on something based on what the company who sells it, or their employees, have to say. Like no shit Larrin is going to hype his companies products and downplay the quality of stuff offered by other majors like Hitachi.
@@jeffhicks8428All Hitachi steels are pretty low tier, super blue is very brittle compared to just about any other steel with comparable or higher edge retention. Zdp is far from the best of high wear resistance steels. They are great at fine grain structure though. Nice to sharpen.
