I will not be surprised if it is later revealed that this whole channel was part of an astroturfing campaign for the twisted sisal rope manufacturers trade group in an effort to boost sales. ;)
4034 is a long time budget steel in the German knife industry. Much like 420 is in the US.
On a Krupp or Thyssen page there’s a blurb about the formula being the same but the steel being improved due to gradual improvements in manufacturing (presumably reductions in impurities, more consistent mixing, different smelting temperatures, and cool down cycles affecting precipitation). A steel is much more than a formula, and mills matter. I think that is reflected in the general incremental superiority of Spyderco 8Cr. That or some knife makers are swapping in whatever’s available (which can also work to our advantage in those rare cases where a better steel is swapped in when a cheaper one is out of stock).
The music-induced nostalgia is real.

Love the 4116 for a budget steel
Have gotten to the point I watch these videos to 1st enjoy your music selection, and 2nd to learn something more about steels
Thx for keeping up with your channel
Great comparison. I've had the Crawford 1 for a while now and it's not let me down. It keeps a decent edge and sharpens pretty easily. It's a decent work horse knife at a very good price point.
Love your edge testing. You are a go to for me researching knives.
I got the micro recon a couple days ago. The tanto version came in 4034 and the spear point came in 4116
Thank you for all your hard work Pete. Much appreciated
Reprofiling an edge by hand sucks. Even with the beast I bet. You have patience, and probably a sore shoulder lol. Thank you, and take care Pete
Thanks for your contributions
Good morning…

I'm so interested in CJRBs new budget steel. Very much awaiting that edge testing. I've heard it strops back so easily to scary sharp. Kind of why i liked Cold Steels AUS-8, i felt it stropped back better than most budget steels.
Great info again. Thank you. I have the Cara Cara 2 in 8cr13mov, which I think is same as the Tenacious. It is one of my favorite EDC's, along with the 4 inch Cold Steel Voyager Clip point in AUS8. Guess they will do for now. My Bucks are the only 420hc knives I have and I don't carry them often.
Super informative Pete love your channel ,cold steel doing some business moves lately
Thank you for the video. Wish I'd seen it before I bought the Cold Steel product to replace a CRK Squid I lost last weekend on a warm-up trail run. The Squid was amazing but I thought I'd get something a little bigger. D'oh! Maybe it'll be okay. Really enjoyed your soundtrack.
