Re: Robin 2
There a sometime poster on the main form goes by S3 Ranch I think, who's a rancher and gives them out to staff and guests. They get used hard and he speaks well of their performance. Yep the robin2 is a awesome knife, the original purchase knives are still in use and my 3-4 year running test result...

Re: Serrated Edge for Hunting?
I have been in the hunting industry since the 1990’s and have been carrying a G2 delica serrated or a vg10 serrated endela and can assure you a serrated edge knife will work well for 80+% of any Type of game processing. Perfect no , as I carry other knives during hunting season like a plain blade en...

Re: Salt steels for pool/chlorinated water.?
I've enjoyed my LC200N Salt 2 Wharncliffe and UKPK so much that I'm hesitant to try anything new. Hot tubs, swimming pools, the ocean for a few years and I have yet to see a speck of rust on either. I'd love to know how Magnacut does in the same environment, all of my Magnacut knives have so many o...

Re: Best Seki K390
The k390 endura is very nice I use it as a hunting knife
I am kinda @ buyer’s remorse for pulling the trigger on a serrated endela vg10, and not wait for
My full serrated k390 to arrive

Re: pocket ceramic for serrations
I keep a Lansky Spyder sharpener in my tackle box ( https://lansky.com/index.php/products/spyder-sharpener/ ) and I have a second one for my get-home bag. It does a great job of free-hand sharpening Spyderedge knives because the three different points of its “triangle” shape are designed to be perf...

Re: Yes, another request thread. Stretch 2
Stretch 2 in spy27 , lukewarm LC200n = heck no The stretch and it’s sprint runs traditionally are geared towards the top tier steels , zdp189, hap40, v-toku2, magna, vg10 I bet there’s a steel that’s over looked for the hunting geared stretch As a hunter I would never buy one in LC200n, as I would ...

Re: EDC steel advice
As a maritime worker my vote is vg10, LC200n can’t stay sharp without every day edge maintenance, and when we need to cut in a hurry sawing threw something isn’t in the cards!
LC200n is easy enough to sharpen, but requires it often/ daily

Re: Endura Salt?
I just say no to the LC200n, any steel like magna cut , vg10, bd1n, I like liner less/ light weight, and vg10 , bd1n is super corrosion resistant over all ! The LC200n is super high maintenance when it comes to keeping it keen edge, I personally would sacrifice corrosion resistance for edge durabil...

Re: LC200n? What am I doing wrong
Heck I finally figured it out, it’s the cattle hay net wrap and bags of cubes , they have lots of dirt caught up in the netting, I got the salt 2 back to razor sharp, 6 round bales and the blade was ready to be sharp again. A pocket lansky triangle stick @ lunch or water break helps keep the edge ma...

Re: LC200n? What am I doing wrong
I feel like all of these issues can be resolved through sharpening. Example, Vivi has amazing results with H1, he's clearly doing something that I'm not because I don't think I could tell apart H1/VG10/LC200N until it came time to sharpen them. I sharpen them all the same at the same angles and edg...

Re: LC200n? What am I doing wrong
It’s edge retention is sacrificed for toughness and corrosion resistance ? Not always but usually, generally the softer the steel the tougher the blade but also the less edge retention, but too hard and it can be brittle. The trick is getting the right balance between the 3 to fit what you intend t...
