Thanks Ford Tough! And thanks to Frank for sendi g in, as this was one of my future send batches if you run short. I guess 10V, even from China, is real deal. 👊
That coating thing is random speculation. Ive worked with coatings in the firearms, aerospace and (tangentially) motorsports industries and haven't seen any proof of it being the case. Betterinsidethebox did an awesome study using 30+ knives and saw no evidence of it.
The great thing about 10v is that (assuming competent HT) the difference in edge retention between 59 HRC and 65 HRC is less than 10%. Im not positive Kizer is competently heat treating them though. I've seen reports of them being decent, but my experience very much mirrors Gerald's (outpost76).
@@lawrencem5943 sure don't brother. I write them down on a journal. No one can hack those. Old school i know. I encourage any amf everyone to record the info how they see fit.
@@WhatsthePOINT_EDC not sure if you know it or not but my wife created "my knife journal" ..it's on Amazon for like 10 bucks I think. We kept it's price at whatever the current cost is. I'm our best customer. I fill those dudes up nonstop 🤣🤣

@@CNYKnifeNut excellent 👌
Hell yea man. I haven’t tested the Sheepdog yet.
The other knife is a Sencut Glide Strike.
More coming soon!👊🤘
@@WhatsthePOINT_EDC i sent the test results to your Instagram 😎🤘
Looking forward to those next videos
@@shawnsadventures2852 you'll see the calibration process in the Pyrite video if that interst you 😎
Looks good to me. IDK what ideal RHc would be for 10V but I'd be happy with that one.

Do you have a spreadsheet of your findings?
That would be a good addition if you don't already have one.

@@apex_alchemy_knivesThat’s right. I write down every steel I’ve sharpens and what edge retention results as well.

@@apex_alchemy_knives Hell yea man!🤘
Yea I will never buy another Kizer again because i got the 10v fixed blade and it is so bad it rolls and chips from cardboard... yea
