How easily does this knife steel rust? Testing the Cr8Mo2VSi (DC53) in the QSP Canary fixed blade

Рет қаралды 9,968

Күн бұрын

The QSP Canary fixed blade has a new to me steel called Cr8Mo2VSi (DC53). and in this video I split some wood with it, spit on it, and cut cardboard. These advanced tests show me how easily it rusts, and is knotted wood going to chip the edge, etc.

Thank you for batoning. And how you have less than 100k is beyond me. The filming, and the style of talking over the film, and all of the humor sporadically spread throughout the video. Please don’t ever stop being you, or doing this. You have remained the same, since I started watching you around 2017/2018 or so, and I’ve come for the humor and the batoning, and I still get good info in an entertaining form. Your style is what keeps me watching every video, and coming back. It’s gold. When I show non-knife friends your videos, they watch others and don’t even care about knives. You’re easy to watch and your content is fun. I like it this way - if you ever started shilling and started doing basically ad reads on the channel, that would be the only time I would be compelled to not finish a video tbh. Thanks for being genuine and thanks for doing this in YOUR style. Much better than a second rate version of someone else’s style imho. 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼

Over the years I do get the comments about never changing. And I take it to heart. I have tried to improve some technical stuff from time to time, and make minor changes to the formula- but I have tried to keep the same forumula and sideshow style of the videos. I make these mainly as entertainment.

A non-knife-guy friend of mine showed me this channel by showing me the video about the gear-pivot knife. He enjoyed it for the humor and he sent it to me since I am a knife-guy myself. I instantly subscribed and hit that bell icon, and I have watched every video since. And when I'm out of new videos to watch and wanna watch more, I just go back in time!

It sucks its been such a grind for you to get 100k. Even when im burnt out on knife content i always watch your new uploads, your channel and cedric and ada never get old its the table top channels that get boring. Obviously their content is easier to churn out in mass im guessing the youtube algorithm likes that.

Funny timing for a brand new video. Just 8 hours ago, i proudly slid my green Stump Lifter across the table in its green leather Foolish Pride pounch and said to Jim, "hey Jim, check this out". Jim ran his thumb across the blade and said, "this is really nice" and slid it back...I guess cartwheels and back flips aren't in vogue like I imagined. Atleast he seemed sincere.

So that is the lens I watch your channel through, and I hope most folks just have fun with them and when they go to work, get a little chuckle over some silly shit you said about their favorite blade.

I tend to think it’s overblown advice and it’s overly dependent on where they’re stored. I have had some minor issues where a little edge maintainance and cleaning have made it go away.

Like I don’t consider when I put away my cold weather gear until the following year to be long term. If it’s just getting put up on the shelf for months at a time, it shouldn’t matter. Also - I think the mentality also operates on an “everyone is an idiot” premise so you couldn’t guarantee that someone was going to properly clean and treat the blade before putting it in storage.
