My full liner burple g10 S110V Native Five is absolutely incredible. With really hard use for over eight months, did not need one sharpening just good stropping every few days on a diamond paste on leather. Incredible knife. I sharpened it at 13 degrees using Venev diamond stones on a modified Rixiu fixed edge sharpener. From 240 to 800 with final strop on one micron and then .5 micron. Touch up with one application of 3 micron on leather that is still working great over 8 months later. The other steel I have that acts the same is Rex 45 in a micarta scaled Native 5.
Appreciate the hard work and attention to detail you put in to your reviews Your knowledge of knife steel and proficiency of communication is amazing I would love to see you get into bladesmithing Thanks for sharing, take good care and God Bless
Great review sis. Your probably right about how they’d perform if the edges where identical. That said I bet the 110V does not have as high of an HRC since it’s from Spyderco while the 125V is from Levi.
Good to see you again Ms Erica. Hope your getting settled in somewhere that works for you. I'll keep praying for you 🙏. Enjoy your evening and your day tomorrow. See ya.🇺🇲🔥🌲🔪
Love it when you do videos like this. I 1:21 bow to the master. I’ve asked you a question kind of like this before, but I have never bought a knife from a custom maker. I want to get one with about an 8 inch blade Micarta handle spearpoint And crew wear steel. Tell me what maker to use oh great one
Great content as always Erica. Once I develop my freehand sharpening skills I may try some 110v and other super steels. I’m still wrapping my head around sharpening K390. Have a great day!
I will say- the thinner the better. For sharpening. It was effortless sharpening Levi’s Stinger. I highly suggest getting a nice slicey blade to play with initially!
At high hardness the burr breaks more easily and quickly than at softer hardness. Sharpening a soft steel is a pain in the butt, because the burr don't com off, the burr flips from side to side.
I have the Mannix 2 in S110V. I have not sharpened yet, but am happy to know what grit to use when the time comes. Additionally, nice to hear once again that the "chippyness" of S110V was unfounded for normal use. I am interested as to the angle for sharpening you would recommend for the Mannix 2 in S110V.
Of course they aren’t difficult for you to sharpen, lil homie. You are Erica, mistress of blades and steel!! I do not like toothy…….. And your mom loves the gunny juice. Don’t cut me. I love that little Northern knife. Fun and informative video. I just saw the big brother to that knife. Very cool.
When you mentioned that it performed better at 325 grit, did you sharpen at 325 and progress up in grit, or did you keep it at 325? In my sharpening experience, I have always progressed to 1200 grit or higher. Maybe I'll experiment with finishing sharpening at different grit levels and see how I like it. Also, it's an exciting video topic. I've hesitated to use my s110v Spyderco due to the rumors about chipping. Watching your video makes me feel more comfortable using s110v in the future.
Question, did you put a little sharpening choil on the Spyderco? My Paramilitary 2 doesn't have one. Good video, a couple of steels I haven't tried yet. On my list though, some day... Thanks for the review.

Wow that sounds SICK🎉
So many steels and so few months to test them.
Nice results as predicted. Stay positive 'n prayers sent.
Love you Mike!!!!!
This was great info, first time I’d heard anyone give a detailed opinion on S125V. Cheers, E!
@@davidkurle5418 it was really fun to test and use!!! Thanks for watching!!!!!

Two very cool knives and thanks for your in depth comparison of the steels. 👍Take care and Cheers!

@@ericasedc cool. My Delica k390 fits that description and I have a Native 5 LW in Spy27 coming tomorrow that I’m excited to practice on as well.
@@pow-low yay!!!
Interesting. I will have to dig out the blurple and give it a more course edge than my usual thousand grit.
@@robertbarker5802 I bet it will perform much differently!
My FAVE: thanks for sharing🌹🌹🌹
@@CIGARURI you are my fave!
thanks for sharing- they both seem good
They sure are! Thanks for watching!!!❤
Very nice combo!
@@BladeObssession thank you!
Another awesome video! Sending prayers and good thoughts.

15-17dps for normal use!
I won a heist in s35vn but that the best steel I got but 440 or good treated 8cr works for me so anything else above that is super steel to me😊
S35VN is decent!
I love my S110 in salt water.
@@marccohen5579 heck yes!!!

@@connorallison3628 left it at 325!!!!
Solid vid, whats your sharpening tool of choice
@@chaddamron3877 Like I said in the video a few times- DMT diamond stones 🥰
Question, did you put a little sharpening choil on the Spyderco? My Paramilitary 2 doesn't have one. Good video, a couple of steels I haven't tried yet. On my list though, some day... Thanks for the review.
Yes I did! It makes it easier to sharpen the knife properly, and it doesn’t get snagged since it’s so tiny!
@@ericasedc cool, I might have to add one to my Paramilitary 2 and Manix 2 and 2XL. Thanks
@@timtitus2532 it’s a game changer!
That Dart cheated. It has a better heat treat
It’s a Stinger!
Expert Erica, how does K390 - my current favourite - hold up to these super steels? :)
I actually mention that in the video. Did you get to that part?!
@@ericasedc i heard something about K390 but i could been intoxicated :)
@@tomt5745 K390 is “easier” to sharpen than a lot of the super steels . These are fairly easy though, hold a great edge, and are stainless!
@@ericasedc sorry i heard it but wa bit caught up in my stupid labyrinths
@@ericasedc thankyou for bitchslapping me to saturn and back, Miss Erica
Those G10 AWT skinny scales??
I believe so!
