    Hi Pete, thanks for yet another good knife review.
    You had mentioned your arm in some previous video; if i could give you an advice.. Instead of sitting down when doing the rope cutting test, you could try to do it standing up with your cutting surface at a good hight. This is alot more ergonomic position, and will allow you to use your weight and leverage more than forcing your arm and shoulder. The hight of you bench or cutting area you have to experiment with, depending on your height and length of arm. This should take care of future problems.
    Wish you the best, looking forward to see more of your videos. Take care

    If you live on the Atlantic Ocean like I do the salinity level in the Atlantic vs Pacific will cause LC200N to rust at some point or another if it’s being exposed to regular submersion in Atlantic sea water. If you aren’t taking the knife out on the water all the time the LC200N is probably better than H1 because of edge retention, but as a designated kayak fishing knife I like the pacific/atlantic salt series.

    I just got one myself and I have to agree that sharpening it without messing up the handle will be a challenge for sure. Maybe this is one I just send back to Spyderco to sharpen it for me. I would love to keep the warranty intact if possible. I know if you take the blade out you could sharpen it just fine but that is risky with those screws IMO.

    Was shocked to hear that this beat out the PM2 in your estimation. Love the premise of this knife but I think the lack of choil would drive me nuts. Either that or I would just have to freehand sharpen only for the Caribbean.

    • @mihaidragnea9785
      @mihaidragnea9785 Год назад

      For me that's what made it better. (It's been 4 years...) to me the choil is pretty useless and because of it you are very far away from the blade in a normal grip so you are forced to use the choil. Also because of the choil it has a worse blade-handle ratio.
