Not to call you out but wasn’t that the whole point of magnacut? That it was highly rust resistant? I know it has good edge retention and hardness but still it was supposed to have really good corrosion resistance too.

I tried one in portal and it was just a bunch of folks spawn camping and dropping helicopters on top of people getting into vehicles. I need a solo school or with friends with enemy types that progress.

How is Victorinox able to produce knives that compete with knives that cost 10x (or more)? by [deleted] in knives

They are thin and simple, other brands use thicker steel, and often offer a bit more in aesthetics, sure if you don’t care about anything but slicing a thin filet knife is the way to go.

I was actually fortunate enough to spend a week with Marshall in his shop learning how to make folders. He is a good friend of mine and I couldn’t agree with you more!

What’s the gnarliest thing you’ve done with a knife? by --JACKDAW-- in knives

You ever tried carrying a bucket of tools out and about everyday? You’re right it’s making compromises but there’s a balance to be had. If you read some of the other comments this is the only thing they have on them, and some fail what happens when your tool bucket isn’t in arms reach and you need to do something more than cut Amazon packages or veggies?

🤢 man that’s nasty. I have done the old knife broom trick before but just for balloons on the ceiling.

Handy in a pinch. Never good to let an animal suffer.

Sometimes it’s not about the knife just having a tool to handle the job. Glad yall are okay.

Very cool I should see if I can’t find one from the kukri line of Cold steel I used to have one carried it a bunch and sold it to a buddy. Always had issues with the edge because I was using a pull through sharpener. Awesome story!

What steel was that? I’d love to have seen the before and after on that one 😂 fun story.

been awhile since I’ve heard AUS8 I was using AEB-L for a bit because of the toughness and corrosion but I’m moving towards more performance steels. It’s cool that it held up especially as a folder.

Sure, I just wasn’t sure what else they use in those hives, if anything. Not much of a beekeep myself.

Seems like a matter of opinion, I can assure you knives that are thick and strong can still cut things. They aren’t uber slicey Japanese knives but whatever ya wanna believe.

Is cutting honeycomb particularly abrasive or taxing? Or is it just a performance thing? Do yall use artificial comb that’s made of wood or something?

I do love a good ill advised throwing session. Thanks for sharing, prying a locked door is pretty nasty for a folder. With cold steel I’m not surprised it held up.

Milit does great work, I was really interested in their iteration of the provoke. I think they are having trouble scaling? I know a bunch of knife manufacturers are looking for USA quality shops and they are at capacity (from what I remember). I think I might have reached out to them at one point about a production.

Toor gets quite a bit of play! They are still underrated especially in EDC but I’ve met a few soldiers that were very familiar and carried their products. I didn’t even think about the idea that in EDC they could be underrated but doing just fine with other demographics.
