Finally got my new knife of the week! The Condor Bushcot and IT IS BEAUTIFUL!!! Please show it off a little so other people can enjoy it too. Thank you for all the help and great customer service!!!
REX121 is the hardest commercially available knife blade steel in the market by quite a margin - especially if hardened to its upper limit of 71-72 HRC. In fact it's unlikely to ever be beaten because any harder and it would be near impossible to create or maintain an edge even with diamonds (REX121 is hard enough!!). Have a great day.
Thanks for taking the time to explain the 'nice steel, bad sharpening' on that Native 5 variant. There are certainly times where you might want max edge retention or at the very least a steel you don't already have represented in your collection.
Who is Mr. Reeves and why would he bring a G&G Hawk knife to your house. The Deadlock is a grail knife for a lot of knife afficianados and you can find higher priced knives on KnifeCenter.
Hopefully you see this! You should somehow show us how the knifes sit in the pocket, primarily to show depth. Even sliding it over a piece of cardboard would help.
Although the two steels are close from a hardness perspective (depending on HRC - Maxamet peaks at about 68-69HRC while REX121 peaks at about 71-72HRC), it's the carbides that create the noticeable difference in sharpening. Maxamet contains approx 22% carbides while REX121 contains approx 32%. Further, the REX121 carbides are larger and not quite as evenly dispersed. Overall result, REX121 is notably harder to sharpen because your fighting those large hard carbides - especially if you want a clean shiny edge - compared to Maxamet. It's strongly recommended that users maintain a REX121 edge and not let it dull as getting a good edge back will take time & lots of diamonds. As DCA indicates, REX121 is almost impractical but exists for those who want the absolute best edge retention from a steel. Have a great day.
One problem I have with Work Tuff is that they won't keep models in production! There's no reason I can think of that a company would or should discontinue a design or model of knife.
For real, I don’t understand why nobody lets you filter for washers/bearings on their websites. It makes it next to impossible to find washer-based knives that are made by brands you don’t already know.
I think if you follow each " New Knivess" video with a corresponding short with a quick glance at all knives you just reviewed, it would be appreciated.
In all honesty, the cost is not related to the raw materials (directly, anyway). The bulk of the cost is linked to the labour and materials required to process & sharpen the REX121 steel. DCA is not understating how difficult REX121 is to work with and sharpen. (Don't get me wrong, some nice titanium or CF perhaps with some inlays would be nice.) Have a great day.
I’m sorry but the liner lock on the Mariner 2 just does it in for me. If I’m spending more than $100 let alone $400 I want a more premium locking mechanism. Don’t know if it’s just me but liner locks feel cheap to me what do you guys think?
That Rex-121 Sage-5 looks interesting, but I'm holding on to my money until Spyderco gets the lightweight Magnaccut versions of this awesome knife out. Heard anything from Eric? Let's light a fire under the Glessers!
For the Ti versions. The aluminum version is a around $1,200-$1,700 depending on how it's configured. He's not making them anymore though, so you're at the whims of the secondary market.
Anyone know what kind of patina to expect from Rex 121, real world experience with the steel not just a requote from a forum please and thank you? Also, does it chip easily?
I cannot comment on the patina however I can comment on the chipping issue to some degree as I've only had limited experience with the steel. Is it a 'chippy' steel to sharpen - sort of. It won't outright chip when sharpening but as DCA indicated getting a clean edge can be difficult & time consuming meaning that most users usually end up being satisfied with a coarse/toothy edge. Kind of like ultra hard D2. The coarseness is usually caused by the low grit stones that you need to actually get an edge going. If you let REX121 go truly dull you may find yourself starting starting on 50-100 grit diamonds. What this does is easily remove the material between the carbides leaving the jagged carbides behind (at least in the early stages of sharpening). This usually (mostly) resolves itself as you progress up the grits but it takes time. Now as for chipping while in use - this is a definite possibility. While REX121 is the hardest commercially available steel, it also has the lowest toughness. While there are a number of factors to consider (stock thickness, edge thickness, etc...) REX121 simply does not like lateral or impact force. For example, I found that I could actually cut though staples in cardboard boxes while doing draw cuts but I managed to chip the edge when I hit a small nail in some wood (pine 4x2) I was practicing fire stick making on. If considering REX121 for real life use I recommend 1) strictly for cutting & slicing & 2) don't let it get dull - maintain the edge. As a general comment I would never recommend this steel for real world use unless a user had a very clear need for the ultra hardness & was prepared for the eventual maintenance. I personally prefer S90V as a more realistic high edge retention option - still very good edge retention, is stainless, has usable toughness, is relatively easy to sharpen and takes a nice clean edge (with a little bit of work). I hope this helps.
@@realbroggo I've got a few s90v knives and it's a very appealing steel for edge retention and corrosion resistance. I agree with you about slicing tasks and what you advise about lateral force is something I have taken note of. The reason I ask is I'm more of a kitchen commando than a camping captain or tradesman tinkerer. So stainless slicing is my jam. Also, you obviously put effort into your answer and I appreciate that! :)
@@velvetine74 I know what it's like when you're thinking if sinking a few hundred $$$ into a knife you actually want to use. Most reviews are more for collectors or postal package warriors. For kitchen work REX121 will certainly do the job - as long as you avoid bones or chopping work. I would still recommend S90V. Have a great day.
Thanks guys, great work as always. I am curious about the Kansept Qilin, it is an Ostap Hel design and I noticed in the photos for every version of it on the Knife Center website that Kansept has it engraved on the blade as Ostap Nel . . . Nel with an N not Hel with an H. Maybe the H will show up in their name - Khansept.
Hey DC Hopefully you are doing well. Q... Why the Mariner 2 is that expensive when other US knife Co. are doing a knife with the same materials but way lower price point? Thanks in advance for your help and feedback.
I struggle with M4 steel, I can get it relatively sharp on my KME using my 100 grit stone but at the end of sharpening, it's always very toothy. More than I like. M4 is my nightmare steel to sharpen. I Gave my best friend a BM super freak for Christmas a few years ago and maybe once a year since he rotates knives I'll sharpen it for him and it's always a chore for me. I couldn't even imagine doing Rex 121. I would have to start with the 50 grit beast stone to stand any chance. Luckily ill probably never buy any knife with that steel. I'm perfectly fine going through life with lesser edge retention steels I can easily sharpen. 😅
Maybe start with a 320 grit or 500 if it's just to sharpen it up.. 100 is very very coarse. S90V takes me about 5 minutes with 800 grit to get screaming sharp, and then progressive polishing, honing and stropping
I would like a sage 5 made affordable, Not that LW bullshit. Use that green G-10 from some of those cheaper spydercos and use a more basic steel, BD1n would be lovely.
Rex 121 is like taking S90V and adding 30% MORE edge retention. Definitely not for me, but cool. Viper needs to get all the logos off the blades, it looks bad on a lot of knives that otherwise look great. I've been liking a lot of Kansept designs... really like my Shard, Fenrir, and Loki.
taking s90v and adding more edge retention would be s110v and then s125v, rex121 isn’t stainless it’s more like taking rex45 and cranking the edge retention to the ceiling and then some. rex121 isn’t stainless while s125v is
Wtf? The Viper is the best looking piece in this video which is why it's in the thumbnail. And S90V is leagues tougher than Rex 121 which is one of the weakest steels out there and as the guy who commented before me said, it's not stainless either.
So you have big hands, so do I, but do you ever show true "pocket" knives. You know, the ones that do not fill up your pocket. I do not need to have all four fingers on the handle. Thanks.
They ruined that PF Tunny by putting that stupid flipper tab on it and NOT doing a front flipper. Love the shape and size and I'll take 14C over many of the "super steels" like 20CV or S35VN to name a few but flipper tabs that stick out of the bolster like that are AWFUL and ruin a knife. Only people who either don't know how or never actually use their knives think that's a good idea. Front flippers are always better.
By the way, DCA, you used Big Red Cinnamon just a few weeks ago with the Eric Garza Keychain Bit Drivers. You used Black Licorice there, too. Blueberry, mint, cheese, and jalapeño.
I kinda chuckled that both the crossbar lock knife and the otf, you made comments about them not having any blade slap or play and how hard it is to get such precision. Yet benchmade had done both for decades now hahaha
I don't know what Big Red David is talking about but Big Red soda is definitely NOT cinnamon flavor. That nasty 🤮 stuff is like overly sweet bubblegum flavor ick.
Very true. I've been using & collecting knives for over 30 years now and there's never been a time with more choice. That's the way I look at it - we're spoilt for choice. There's something for everyone's tastes, needs and budgets. The issue that gets me is surely all these knives don't get sold - so where are they all hiding? 🤔
@@realbroggo now that’s a thought that’s going to fester; good question! I presume the answer is in a warehouse somewhere. Do agree with your broader point though, it’s a great time to be an enthusiast! Unless one is a lefty like me, then there are fewer choices in the midtech and custom reaches of the market: I’d love a Shiro or Grimsmo, but I can’t justify spending $1k+ on a tool that would work against me.
Knives are indeed fungible and it also has value to someone who wants to buy the item. How much someone else will pay for it sets the value, just like art, houses, watches, pens, cars, etc.
thank you for explaining the blade steel with the weeds. Understanding what one needs is very informative and helpful

I really appreciate you getting in the weeds about Rex 121. Sometimes it's hard to remember what the best of the best in edge retention is these days

That’s a good looking knife for sure. Nice take on a popular EDC size with a boost in quality and style.

I’m not sure how much tougher Rex121 is over Maxamet to sharpen but I’ve easily sharpened the Sage 5 Maxamet using Diamond stones.

I have been waiting ever so impatiently for that Rex 121 Sage

Great knives as always! 👍

For real, I don’t understand why nobody lets you filter for washers/bearings on their websites. It makes it next to impossible to find washer-based knives that are made by brands you don’t already know.
And very often it's not mentioned in the descriptions--either here or on the manufacturer site--if you want to find the info manually.
That ostep and kansept colab reminds me of the case marilla or kinzua... Thats not a bad thing
Looking for something with a similar profile to the Qilin in a < 3" blade length and under $75. Any suggestions?
Great selection! Thanks again
I love Spyderco knives but their pricing is now out of reach for me.
It’s just this particular knife. I got a s30v sage 5 for barely over 100 bucks on a sale and a Manix 2 in s30v for 120 recently as well
The light weight is about 50 less
It's Rex 121. Of course it's expensive. You can get a solid Kershaw in 8cr for like $30 if you want cheap. I ordered that Spyderco because why not.
DCA great video man 👍
I think if you follow each " New Knivess" video with a corresponding short with a quick glance at all knives you just reviewed, it would be appreciated.
Or…. Just click on the chapters
Need mini Qilin
Very attractive knife and the price is fair for the fit and finish. Does it come with extra hardware?
The steel on that Spyderco makes me want one. I have to say that a knife company needs to do a little better than g-10 if they want 300 of my bucks.
In all honesty, the cost is not related to the raw materials (directly, anyway). The bulk of the cost is linked to the labour and materials required to process & sharpen the REX121 steel.

Curious... does spyderco plan to have a sharpening program for their Rex 121 knives?
Still don't understand why you never showed the boker kwaiken button lock in magnacut
I’m sorry but the liner lock on the Mariner 2 just does it in for me. If I’m spending more than $100 let alone $400 I want a more premium locking mechanism. Don’t know if it’s just me but liner locks feel cheap to me what do you guys think?

Omg so many good things
I'm out of money and want another knife
I've seen countless testing of the lock strength of folders. Are there any that have tested otf knives for lock strength?
Maybe worth the note that a ‘regular’ deadlock model C is still something like $2,500 USD
