    Knife Community Itay was born in 2020 from the idea of a few friends to want to create a new community for knife enthusiasts. The aim was to transform a pre-existing group of Buy/Sell in a larger place, to be used to share experiences, from the craftsman to the end user, learning and sharing as much as possible about the wonderful world of cutlery.
    The KC-01 project finds its first expression in the friendship of Michele Pensato, better known as "Molletta", an active designer with long experience, and Raffaele Santoro, a cutlery enthusiast and one of the founders of Knife Community Italy. Both are interested in the idea of creating a new multi-role knife, which can assist the user in his many outdoor activities and decide to involve the entire Knife Community Italy group.
    The project is shared with the other founders and with all users who decide, with the formula of the survey, the length of the blade, the steel to be used and the final design that the knife should have, with the desire to entrust the realization of the knife to an Italian company that is an established leader in the sector: lionSTEEL, meeting the kind availability of its owner and CEO, Gianni Pauletta.
    The KC-01 project finally sees the light today in a limited series of only 300 pieces, according to the will of Knife Community Italy, thanks to the expert hands of Michele Pensato "Molletta" and the cutting-edge technology of lionSTEEL.

    The knife designer is Michele Pensato, his nickname is "Molletta".
    Very nice from Lionsteel and Mic to create a community knife in cooperation with the lionsteel knife fan community. For me this knife is a perfect match between the Lionsteel M7 and the T6 (in 3V and full tang and a nice droppoint blade). I like the handle a lot, because it makes it very functional with this long grip and this smooth metal guard.

    I have #151 with the green micarta handle which matches my only other Lionsteel made knife, the KnivesAndTools exclusive version of the MKM Normar (same steel and handle material). I would like to see a side by side comparison with the M7, T6 and M5 if you have them. I'm strongly considering an M5 in the near future.

    Benchmade Freek (original model), Victorinox Craftsman (91mm 6 layer), Gerber MP450 multitool. No Opinel 8 Carbone today. But of course I'm in my room of knives, machetes, hatchets, axes, tomahawks and saws, so it doesn't really matter.
    Yeah, that's a high sabre with a flat grind and a V edge. That is one beautiful knife. I would use it as a "one knife" for minimalist light scout hiking/camping. The finger choil lets you do fine work, but it looks like it can do some chopping and definitely batoned splitting. It's the right length, weight and thickness for multipurpose duty. The 3V makes it very tough and also good edge holding. The DBK boys have done lots of testing of 3V for hard use. Not JoeX style hard use, just regular hard use. I would probably convex the last 3/16 inch and make sure it finishes around 17 degrees to give it better wood carving and multipurpose cutting.

  • @johnmuthan286
    @johnmuthan286 Месяц назад +2

    Got mine on the pre-order period.
    It's a great knife but not a fan of the finger choil.
    If you like this one, may I suggest you have a look at the Saturn Knives Titano it's really fantastic, made by Lionsteel too and also designed by Mich Molleta.
    If you like Lionsteel I would also highly recommend the M1 as a daily EDC.

      ​@LegionTacticoolCutlery You're right about Extrema and Fox, and the N690. They did a good job with it a dozen years ago, but even back then I was waiting for them to go to Elmax. They want Elmax money though...

      The same with me on the T6 K490. 😂 Finally I bought the KC-01 with black mycarta like in the video.
      The CPM 3V is an awesome steele, you did nothing wrong purchasing this kind of metal.
      I think the lionsteel 3V is (like lot's of bushcraft knifes) from it's hardness between 58 and 60.
      After I got the KC-01 I sharpened it with 1200 grit, a ceramic rod and then I honed it with 10.000 grit on leather.
      The result is: you can shave your legs without preasure in the blade.
      What I want to say: the CPM 3V is hard enouth to get an amazing sharp edge.
      Use ballistol oil to keep oxidation from the blade or to remove it of your blade got some.
