This video introduces a new for my channel test: Accelerated Corrosion. This test procedure follows the general guidelines of ASTM B117 standard. The purpose is to show which knives perform as advertised in high humidity conditions and which fall short of the hype.

This video follows the one I published recently where the inside-out look at Benchmade’s new Water series Adira. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-05wo2emuNkc.htmlsi=3ZwV0r-OV4o5fiOb There will bear third video where I take another inside-out look at the knives you see here. We’ll get to the bottom of all this together! Ask questions and give me new ideas, I’m listening!

Pretty ironic that a Golden Colorado Spyderco performs better in salt than an Oregon City Oregon Benchmade. Apparently the guys at Benchmade dont get to the coast enough for real world testing. As a life long Oregonian and former employee of Benchmade im disappointed by a lot of what they put out these days.

It's incredible that you buy all of these knives, which are certainly not cheap, and do the testing that you do. I/your viewers appreciate it. Thank you.

@PPeteris 2 месяца назад

I think that the reason why Adira's blade rusted is that Benchmade has chosen an inappropriate finish for the blades that are supposed to be used in or near salt water - they have stonewashed them. If I'm not mistaken, stone washing creates scratches on the blade where salt water can accumulate and create rust spots.

@Carnivorous_edc 2 месяца назад

Spyderco took the time to get the heat treatment done right and declared that Magnacut was a steel worthy of its salt series line. Thanks for sharing that is a very expensive test. Question. Any attention on the condition of the edges on those knives before and after?🤓

@CuttingBoardRx 2 месяца назад

All will be revealed soon 😉

@SonoranKnifeNut 2 месяца назад

They also redesigned the hardware and internals to withstand the corrosion. I believe their warranty covers against corrosion on their salt line. Benchmade put Magnacut on basically an Adamas and claimed it a salt/water knife.

I can confirm that a native salt (mine in LC200) can be left on a boat and forgotten about for 5 months and it may have a few little spots but they rub right off. Best saltwater knives ever. Had one in a wade bag too and it’s like it was when it came out of the box.

Great video. Spyderco has been making Salt knives for a long time, so they've learned a lesson or two. So I'm not surprised the Salt knife did great. The Adira did well and with a few tweaks could probably be optimized. Can't wait to see the tear downs.

You have me wondering if a higher hrc is responsible for the spydercos superior resistance to rust over the Benchmade and mkm magnacut. Spyderco has a reputation for optimal heat treat while Benchmade has a reputation of running soft.

It’s optimized for corrosion resistance.

I've used a spyderco (pacific salt with black carbonitride coating on h1 steel) for almost a decade in rather salty environments, and it's perfectly good still. Blade is a bit soft, leading to more frequent sharpening, but still awesome.

@luisnouel4268 2 месяца назад

Amazing video. My concern about Magnacut knives is not the blade itself. What happens with inside parts?. Spring, bearings, spacers, etc. Those parts are harder to clean and maybe those are not rust resistant. I suppose you already made the autopsy of the 4 knives and you will show the results very soon

@CuttingBoardRx 2 месяца назад

Great point!

@frankkociara4228 2 месяца назад

i still prefer the spyderco carribean in lc200 anyday over magnacut and their h1/h2 rustproof steels like in the jumpmaster are a great no maintenance knife also. don't keep an edge like some of the magnacut knives i have but around salt/water lc200, h1,h2 are hard to beat. great channel btw.

Any knife having rust problems on mostly just bearings would be greatly beneficial to put a set of Skiffs on it. PB/ceramic bearings. Could be a possible fix for the Yipper if that turns out to be the problem.

@poncho151 2 месяца назад

Thank you for doing this test! I’m extremely curious to see what the inside of the Adria. If the omega springs are rusted at all, then ultimately the knife will fail and in my opinion isn’t a true saltwater knife like the Spyderco native 5.

@mattdagger1480 2 месяца назад

Looks like benchmade is heat treating magnacut incorrectly if the magnacut from them has problems sadly....I guess benchmade never learns

@ElonaldTrusk 2 месяца назад

Idc about hardness tests... I've been skeptical of bm's care for heat treating/tempering and post ht grinding. Multiple of their knives ive purchased have taken shitty edges, on the same equipment I'm getting amazing edges on Spydercos and cold steels. This just furthers my suspicion. Someone once said theyre likely tempering at really high temps to make the blades less likely to burn off too much hardness on the belts during sharpening.. and high-temp tempers rob a steel of the properties it's meant to exhibit. I'm no chemist or metallurgist, but from what I do know, it kinda makes sense.

@BrandonMeyer1641 2 месяца назад

I agree, benchmade heat treatments are really quite bad. My Spyderco s30v outperforms my benchmade s30v. It’s honestly just pathetic. This test just affirms my decision to not buy another benchmade.

@tgonzalez1983 2 месяца назад

Very well done, i'm really eager to get your 3rd video and your conclusion. From what i've hear from dr Thomas (let's call him steel jesus), heat treat impacted corrosion resistance of magnacut.

So far my last few benchmade purchases have pissed me off. I’ve been using the manix 2 LW magnacut and it’s the best all around knife I’ve got right now. Even took it free diving Saturday and the hole was nice and large enough to work with gloves. Don’t usually carry a folder but I wanted to give it a shot.

Spyderco takes the time to do right whereas Benchmade just releases whatever, slaps on a laughable price and moves on. This is so embarassing if youre a diehard BM fan.
