I had three Cutlery Shoppe exclusive S90V spyderco's tested at Northern Knives and all tested out at 58hrc. Seven dents all between 58-58.7, seems that's where the production S90V seems to be landing for the most part. They did the Benchmade Osborne and it to was 58 hrc. Wonderful song at 13 min! Thanks for the videos.
Thank you! I've tested Spyderco's S90V all the way up to 62, but you're right. A lot does come in much lower. The song is 10 Years Gone. One of my all-time favorites from the Physical Graffiti album.
I've never been a Delica fan, but I damn near bought that S90 one. I like the color scheme, and who don't like S90? Doubt I'd ever carry it though, so ultimately decided to pass. I seldom ever carry anything 3" or under..even my Para 3's. They just sit and collect dust. Just sold my Rex45 one, and thinking on selling the Cruwear one as well, even though I love both of those steels.
@@jcoolG192 yea, I'm a big cruwear fan myself. Even though there are other ones that will hold an edge longer, cruwear is like the perfect blend of edge retention and ease of maintenance. Takes a crazy edge too.
ZDP189 rusts because so much of the chromium is tied up with the huge amount of carbon in the alloy, so it doesn’t leave much free chromium for corrosion resistance. Both of my ZDP Spydies rust like crazy down here during the summer if I slack on the maintenance.
😂 nope. Most of the time, I burn the CD and load it on my MP3 player. My 8-tracks just don't work well for it! I can list the songs if you like. Thank you!
Hey Kurt I swear the time when you show that Spyderco Chinitary (sorry for that) I see that it was a Fake. Because my friend has the same! I know it looks almost the same but my instinct is not wrong! (most of the time) thanks for everything!
Somehow, I cut out the M390 Delica testing! It was 61.5 x2.
Another great batch. Thank you Carbide Caviar. And thank you Kurt for taking the time to film these. We all appreciate the work you do!!👊
Absolutely love how it turned out!! Super impressed with all your hospitality!! Thank you for everything Kurt and Beth!!
Thank you! It was a pleasure for sure!

Nice Kurt the list is looking mighty impressive now.
I don't mind you turning zeppelin up! Great batch of knives🤘👊
I daily a Cruwear Delica, good to see they aren’t running it too soft
They seem to do pretty well with Cruwear. If I was going carry a Delica, I'd want the Cruwear. 😉

Same here, but they are growing on me. Especially with the great steels they use. Make mine a Cruwear! 😁👍

Hmm... Florida in the summer? Most things rust or melt! 🤣🤣🤣
That 20% chromium in zdp is all bound up with the 3% carbon. Not much left for stainlessness.
Makes sense! Thanks!
Interesting and educational channel. I subscribe :)
Love your videos. What do you use for your audio source? Spotify? Could you start publishing these playlists
😂 nope. Most of the time, I burn the CD and load it on my MP3 player. My 8-tracks just don't work well for it!
I can list the songs if you like.
Thank you!
jcoolG19 2 yes please. Playlists would be awesome with the pair
@@anteck7goat you got it 👍
Cool video 👍

It's amazing how good some counterfeits are. I have a few a friend sent to check. AD-15, Bugout and an 0562. All are very good copies.
Can you test kitchen knives?
I can if there is a flat on the blade.
What's the name of that last Spyderco ?
The K2...10V awesomeness! 😁
Thank you
Hey Kurt have you tested a CRK Sebenza?
I have tested about a half dozen or so. So far, they have been right where they should be! Always need to test more 😉
Definitely sucks, about the Mili but hey it was a gift....and a Ebay purchase, just how that one played out...
You know the saying...😉
