Eafengrow has consistently lied about their d2. Tests as 8cr

Magnacut is also American 🇺🇸

Came for the knife, stayed for the positive energy.

Your family are adorable!

Impressive blade. But I'm more impressed with the positive flow of energy you all share as a family. Thanks for sharing! 🙏

Survival sharpening is the dumbest most pointless topic that has to do with knives. You can easily get a resin bonded pocket stone which will sharpen even maxamet and s90v quick and easy

Ahh good ol 10v! My fav steel to make knives out of and my fav steel in use. The performance it's capable of still boggles my mind. It's only rivaled by 4v as a close second of my fav steel in use and to work with, thin geometry 4v at 67rc is pretty mind numbing as well but 10v is just on a different level.

Beautiful knife & I know a big effort went into thinning that massive blade. - Thin blades for sure one of the undeniable keys to real world performance. - With my first Nakiri I also had expectations of limited use case scenarios, but it's amazing in terms of versatility. - The main advantage to these knives in terms of design is the forward portion of the blade can be ground very thin, significantly thinner than blades with small points. - Knives require a minimal volume of metal in the tip to ensure stability. - You have two choices as a knife designer, taller & thinner or shorter & wider. - I like to sharpen the forward edge of the blades increasing the versatility if these knives. - This works well when used for cutting off portions of larger fruits & vegetables.

Hey! Just started watching. Idk if you have emailed and I've been so busy the last 6 months? Or so, i really havent been keeping up with emails. So i hope i didnt miss any. By the time i came back. To check. I should add i did switch to a new email client for all my email accounts k9mail (its made by the people that make thunderbird, so i could have just not gotten any because of the switch, or at least not seen them) Anyway, going to finish the video. Edit: glad you guys are enjoying it!

What is the edge angle? The steel seems like overkill until you consider edge angle stability and just the amount of use it gets compared to an outdoor fixed blade. Loved your Psalms 141 blackboard in the background.

I want that in a chinese chef knife

I asked my wife which clever she would want, a meat or vegetable clever and she chose meat. I bought her a heavier meat clever, dam you could split a animal. Needless to say it sits in a knife chest with my collection, but I did get her a vegetable clever. I my opinion is a vegetable clever should be your first purchase then the meat , the vegetable clever does get very sharp. Merry Christmas and happy new year

I really enjoy your videos! They're packed with so much valuable information-truly impressive. My vote definitely goes to the Civivi Imperium! 😊 May I have your permission to link a few of your videos on my knife sharpening UA-cam channel? Your content is the perfect complement to some of the topics I cover but can't fully delve into. Thanks in advance, and it would absolutely make my day if you'd consider giving me a follow as well. Keep up the amazing work! 🔪✨

Hi Gabe. I just watched your video and wondered if a good size saw foldable may be paired with a hatchet or machete or a big knife be more effective? Big trees saw them, brushes and twigs the cutting implement!

What ki da knife is that in the video?

i want a sharpness tester sooo bad because I wanna see if a cutting board really makes that much of a difference on edge retention.

I agree AXE always

Great post

Enjoyed this Blade Battle. I use the the Mora Hatchet. After sharpening in the field The Mora is now a Scandi-Vex grind

Hey Gabe, another awesome video with great insights, the handle material is Kirinite and the manufacturer calls this their 'Toxic Green'.....goes nicely with the zombie competition chopper 😊

Ive owned 2 husqvarna wicked for the price they are forged by Hultafors with American hickory for half the price as a Hultafors

I like my Manly Wasp.

Shaving your leg is way easier when going down tho. You should’ve did both edges in the same direction on your leg for more accurate comparison.

Forward weight. And the edge hits before your fingers. On the Kukri

The only PF I have is the Beluga in Böhler K110 and mini in 14C. No troubles.

Thin enough to penetrate, yet thick enough to eject the chips seems like the optimal combination. Optimal blade designs will depend on what we are cutting. Any thoughts on asymmetrical blade/cutting edge designs for these knives ? Have you ever tried cutting willow trees with an axe or hatchet ?

That Kershaw rides so high on the hip, was that uncomfortable? You must be quite fit because it is actually quite exhausting chopping and welding a big blade for any length of time.

Chopper looks wild!

Hi. I have the Spyderco UF and the medium. I am interested in a Arkansas Hard Black right now. Does that stone make any sense at all to me? would be great to know. merry Christmas to you!

The blade flexing means less shock going into the blade and hillt but is converted into vibration. Stiffer, thicker blades are more likely to come loose or snap because of that. This is why machetes are thin, to absorb the impact better.

None of them they both are crap

Hopefully we see the fiskars x7 on this tournament. Been curious how it compares to the Mora for a while 😁

Thickness behind the cutting & up to at least 20mm ( 3/4" ) up from the cutting edge determines cutting force requirements in the testing I have done so far.

You walking up that hill im expecting to see hobbits and orcs run out of the woods anytime. Beautiful place though!

Is there a less-akniv?

The Svord just looks too unbalanced and small and awkward. Didn’t like either of them, same as you

Grrrrrrr, I call it rough sharp

Finally sharpened a real Japanese knife, the owner had experimented a bit himself and completely ruined the edge. The maximum sharpness was 74 BESS, which I reached twice in the sharpening process. I continued up to and including the 30,000 Grit stone and ended up with 86 BESS. I wonder how long the knife will stay sharp. After years of getting sicker and sicker, I have now found something that seems to work. Pranayama, I now go outside once a week and am among people. If this still works in January, I will make a UA-cam series about it. Greetings and happy holidays with the family.

That folding Opinel paring knife is really nifty, even if it may not be the most robust. I was inspired by that prior video with the reprofiled Buck 110 & tried recreating it myself. Took me a LOT longer than an hour! 😮‍💨

Hey Gabe, can you remember the vosteed Mink test, you buttoned some wood ECT. What grit you recommend on that nitro V. Just interested if you have time. Not to important. Ty.

Imperium is my favorite everday edc out of a 100hundy knives

Imperium is my favorite edc out of 100 pr so knives these days.

13:29 - Man down! MAN DOWN!

Hehe I really like the Opinel and I totally agree about kitchen cutlery. The sliciest blade has already been invented, people just dont think kitchen knives are as cool as folding pocket knives or huge fixies with jimping and "blood grooves" and all that. Ive even had that conversation with people a couple of times where they keep searching for a "more slicy blade" eternally, and when I ask what they need that cutting performance for spesifically im told "oh I do alot of food prep". That has to be the definition of not seeing the forest for the trees, right?

Really enjoyed this one! Great experiment. Nice work on the Opinel.

That was like watching Chinese water torture on an inanimate object. If you ever sharpen it successfully, never use it again, put it in a glass display somewhere.

thank you, very informative

Cool👍👍👍

Annnnnnnd now the Imperium is on my wishlist.

This is great! Thank you for the break down in information through the process. I do have some questions, because i do plan on testing this on one or more knives. During the vacuum stage and bubbling, how long am i leaving the scales in the mixture for, is there a tell tale sign of when to remove scales, or a ruff time line to follow? Also are you suggesting more than one oil is beneficial or can i make it work with boiled linseed and beeswax alone, or perhaps mineral oil? Thanks again for any information is appreciated!
