F800 and F1200 (5-7 micron and 2-3 micron respectively) double sided bonded diamond finishing stone. Approximately $200 USD First off, the papers with the stone said “100% concentration on diamonds!”, which is obviously not true from looking at the stone. There’s resin binder there, therefore it’s not 100% diamonds. It’s likely a reference to 10% diamond concentration, which is about what it fe...

Atoma 1200 finishing off the S35VN… ?
Переглядів 4914 днів тому
The Atoma 1200 is a rough 1200 grit (around 12 microns) the is incredibly satisfying to use. It is rough enough to still use a 9-micron 1200 after it! The Atoma is a great finish-sharpening stone to just strop after. I like to use a ceramic after, but use what you have. A 6-micron strop then progressing further is fine too.

Fixed-blade Friday! The Knight Elements Hummingbird!
I don't like the way that steel reacts to sharpening and profiling. It takes a wicked edge though but for the average guy I recommend staying away from it. Especially on outdoor knives.
Compound edges are icky. I want to be able to sharpen it myself, and that just looks like a total PITA.
Can't trust folks that live in apartments. Always up to no good.
Don't get too gushing on Benchmade warranty. I sent in a twenty year old knife with a broken tip and clip that pulled out of a handle, and their response was "sorry we don't make that any more". My options were get the broken knife back or get $150 credit. I took the credit and bought an auto immunity, but they don't fix them forever.
I didn’t know that! It might be a 20-year limit. I had assumed it was like the Leatherman warranty with my experience. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Fun video. I only have 2 knives with a "super" steel. I hardly ever use them. But those sharpal sharpeners seem nice. 👍🏻
They work fast! No setup besides good lighting and a few minutes. Stropping off-camera yielded a better cutting edge. Trying it on-camera rounded the edge a little. 🤷🏼
I bought two of those Ozark trails "bugouts" from the Wally World store. One for each of my kids. We like the knife but we never even seen a real bugout. Twenty-ish bucks for the 2 though. I should of bought three 😂. Another awesome video thanks for showing that good looking militaw
I was gonna say that about outdoor55 and how he did a microscope view of how great this diamond stone set is.
Yeah, his actually inspired mine. I’d had it for over a year and I thought a long-term review would be interesting to viewers. It’s now no most watched video 🤯
I just got mine today. Black with pee pee scales, but bought a brass back spacer.
Great knife!!
Super Sharp on a super steel. Super awesome 😅
It does work very well and turns a crisp edge 👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
I do believe there's a squatch in them there woods. 😅 . Pretty cool/nice looking knife. Awesome video as always. 👍🏻 Thanks
😂 it’s a good one!
I might get one soon.
I highly recommend this one. It takes an edge well too!
I like this model.itd rated value at 77percent overall.
Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching!
Justin?!?! what :) This one is mine, Justin rocks though and I'm a huge fan of his too. Cheers...but different J Lundquist :)
My apologies on the mistake! @jacoblundquistdesign ! I love the dogleg style and ergonomics! Thanks for the correction! 😎👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
👍🏻
Really great thoughts. I know it had a slow start but it's really become a great option for premium, US-made EDC. I think I could like it a bit more than the Rockwall (have handled the Rockwall but not the Mav yet)
I like it better than the Rockwall. The Rockwall feels like it is too much like the Quiet Carry Waypoint. The Maverick is one of the few “full-size” knives I can wear with light summer shorts! Not as loud when opening, but overall a better EDC than the Rockwall IMHO. 😎👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
I like your videos. I like the sound of that stone. ASMR i think it might be called
It’s relaxing. The Atomas are different from everything else. 😎 👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
That's one good looking knife, and you have so many awesome ones. Great video as always. Thanks for showing it.
33 minutes to review a knife. Not good. Also it runs on washers not bearings. Chinese clones have bearings (and are smoother).
Yes, ridiculously tiny washers with a low surface area. Thanks for catching that
And, you may not like 33 minutes. I follow my outline and make my comments. If you want a review with no actual review there are plenty out there that show you the same thing as the knife sales channels without testing the knives on anything more than pocket ingress and egress. If you don’t want or need the information, why are you watching videos?
@@adoseofdrew the same information could have been conveyed much more efficiently. It really does not require 33 minutes do what you did in your video. So based on this I don't see how is your question about me not wanting the information even relevant or logical. Just accept the criticism and move on. No need to attack me lol.
@@4Sandrix why accept silently? I never claimed the most efficient information delivery system. I don’t edit my videos, never have. You won’t find blips and cuts and such. The downside is you also get my rambling sometimes. Your “criticism” (it’s an observation, to be pedantic a bit) assumes I’m unaware and that your information to me is somehow wanted, needed, or inherently valuable to another viewer. The last one I agree with, which is why there’s a conversation and not a blocked account. I appreciate the feedback, but if you believe your insulting “insight” is just gonna go without a response, you haven’t seen many videos or comments sections on my channel. So no, i won’t just accept your insult quietly and move on. If you can’t take it, don’t dish it out.
@@adoseofdrew Dude you need to grow up. You call this an insult? Nobody cares why you make bad videos including yourself it seems so, just grow up you're acting like a teenager right now. Nobody cares about your blocks lmao
The sound of the knife on the stone. I like it.
It’s soothing 🙂👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
The fact that they GLUE the scales on is a huge fail! At that price point, there is no excuse for being cheap like that. I was gonna get one until i saw that, hard pass
I’m not particularly concerned about the epoxied-on scales. I don’t consider it being cheap either. It makes sense from a use-case scenario and there’s texture and geometry underneath the scales that helps with any shearing forces. While a physical squeeze-friction connection is great, most also epoxy or glue somewhat to relieve pressure on the bolts themselves. Out of curiosity, why do you think it’s a big fail? What about the connection type is going to fail and under what circumstances and loads?
Good video I think it's awesome how you can sharpen like that. I need to practice way more.
Thanks! The next one is hopefully interesting! I tried a Shapton 320 on the S35VN…
@@adoseofdrew gonna be super sharp
How about a review of the knife not what you would build
Sure thing! You may have noticed a structure to the review mentioned a couple of times called “DAM NICE/R” where the r is the requests part. I appreciate you watching all the way through! 👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
Damn that looks great! I need it...
Get you one!! Sharpening video coming soon. Spoiler warning: the heat treatment is good
Awesome that's a lot of S35vn .
Yeah baby!
Wish I could find a 10V version. Being sold on e-Bay for $240!!!
For just $239.98…..
Good looking knife I’d say.
It’s more than a looker 😎👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
That QSP made me think of the new Kershaw Heist. In S35vn and better scales . Just an upgraded version of the one i won from your awesome channel. Sirry nothing to do with nothing. As always great video and your WE GNAR looks better 😅
By making it so close to $100, it’s hard to justify the cost of an upgrade as far as value goes. Maybe at $70, but $86 makes it too close. Just my 2 cents tho. 😎👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
Oh, hey, I picked up the same version! I agree it's a bit stout and dense, but that lends itself to the feeling of solidness and "Feeling" more quality than its price would suggest. I also am a sucker for Jacob's designs
It feels sooo nice in-hand 😎👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
The answer is no, they don't live up.
got a clutch lock normal sheepdog recently and loved it so much i ordered this version of the button lock mini. got it on sale for like $48 which is a steal imo. the original price of 95 or 98 or whatever is kinda wild tho
Old school does not rock
I kept starting out a different way 😂 it’s hard to do it the old way now!
Wow I never knew that microns were in the same measuring range as light in nanometers I know a decent amount about lasers and light colors using nanometers thanks to expensive flashlights so that was like a mind blow moment to see my 2 expensive hobbies connect like that
Reminds me of a affordable t-kell
That purple R2D2 is pretty sweet looking.
It started as plain khaki and is now in its “teenage rebellion” phase… 😂👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
How to aquire this tool How much the price
It can usually be found on Amazon for around $70-$80
Home Depot for $69.
I think another play on it being a hotdog or weiner cutter is it’s a eunuch/castration type blade with the no tip end.
Interesting comment on the Huntsman vs the Momo. Both are excessive knives, but in different ways and I appreciate how you point those out.
@@Philippians--vz1mi 🙃
Kizer seems to know what their doing. Awesome video
Man that seems like it might be a great kitchen knife like you said. Crazy blade on that thing
Mine wouldn’t hold an edge, I sent it back for testing.
That sucks! There’s always some QC that makes it through. Did Civivi replace it?
@@adoseofdrew, not yet, it’s just back at the manufacturer for evaluation, in the email they said 4-6 weeks turnaround time.
I find the shaman is a little too small for me, for my preferences. I'm waiting to see if the bodacious is the size improvement i'm looking for, but really I want an XL Shaman.
Wow! You must have giant hands! 😂 it’s a bit large and heavy for me to carry! 👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
@@adoseofdrew I don't think my hands are much bigger than yours judging by the video. I just prefer bigger knives and handles. Police 4 LW and Military 2 are my favorites I just can't EDC them due to blade length restrictions.
@@jtnord got ya! Those things are huge! I have another large knife review coming soon!
That’s beautiful and nice and thin! Very decent for sure
I’m seriously considering trying 10-12 degrees per side 😎
@@adoseofdrew that’s actually one heck of great deal
I’m right on the fence about getting it. It’s just that I just got the kizer bugai and it’s close being the same. Lol.
I’m trying to decide between a Drop Bear and militaw
@@adoseofdrew oooh that’s a toughy hmmm I’d lean more towards the drop bear because I heard so many good things about it. But dang that militias is so pointy though ugh. Yup tough
absolutely agreed ! out of my 100 or so collection… the bel air is my top 5 for sure, will be picking up the new black one. I’m rooting for Kershaw !
One of the best values. Many others are trying to beat it now though… 👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
Obligatory "Nice Guys finish last" joke. Nice break down of this guy. I haven't really tested Nitro-V enough. What are your steel comps to it performance and sharpening wise?
It’s basically 14C28N with some vanadium added for grain pinning. Only about 0.25% though. It’s tough, decent edge retention and corrosion resistance, and wicked good sharpness, could be a straight razor steel 😎👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
From what I've seen kizer does nice work. I got a mini sheepdog and that thing is sweeeeet . Awesome video as always thanks
I like their craftsmanship. I wish they would give attempted HRC ratings though!!
I learned with a crappy stone thats about 4inchs long and like an inch wide. As soon as i was able to i bought the cheapest work sharp precision adjust do hickey. I love that thing. I dont have to sharpen alot, maybe a knife every two months.
About the same that i learned on! 👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
So many different ways and tools to sharpen with. Very cool and interesting. Thanks for sharing
Hello, neighbor! 🌿☀️ Awesome channel!
Thanks!
Did that boker come dull out of the box? I know some do and some don’t lol. Thats pretty darn daring bro, I could never lol. I’d have that sucker all messed up free hand like that lol great show though.
It wasn’t the sharpest, but I did 6 strokes on an 800 grit diamond stone before the sharpening 🙂👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻 I did better than I expected after not using that technique for something like 20 years 😂
This knife may be functional, but looks like Walmart caliber. I would maybe hide it in the bottom of a tool box just so I couldn't see it!
It doesn’t feel like that quality! But looks matter too! Thanks for watching! 👍🏼🙏🏼🖖🏻
