a 940 sharper than a Delica... this must have been filmed on April 1st.

@MF_UNDERTOW Жыл бұрын

The 940 is thicker behind the edge than both the Delica and Elementum and an overall thicker edge geometry. I have all three in my collection and the Delica and Elementum cut far better with less effort than the 940, especially through materials like cardboard. This wire test is only measuring the acute portion of the edge but overall blade grind thickness and edge geometry is more important for actually separating matter.

Don't listen to the Andrew guy. Just buy some kind of a jig and it'll keep a perfect angle which no human ever will.

Just spend a little more money and do a tenth the work to get a sharper knife.

I own an Osborn and I gotta say it's the best EDC knife on the market, in my opinion of course. Everyone has their favorite and to each their own but man I tell you. I've been carrying this knife for 3 years using it daily for opening boxes, cutting them up. Opening packages for the kiddo and cutting clothes tags for the missus. Using it for mechanics work as well and it only recently started getting dull after 3 years of abuse. I think its subjective, I've used mine hard over 3 years and it's honestly incredible how amazing it's been. Other people havent had the best experiences. Personally I'm definitely getting another 940 Osborn because I'm completely sold.
