I find this to be an improvement over the Medusa 2.0 in almost every aspect. Aesthetically I appreciate the black aluminum plus carbon fiber look, and whatever coating they put on the handles gives the knife a lot more grip. The aluminum on the previous version was quite slippery, and combined with the tight button made the knife really hard to deploy when my hands are wet, a problem that the new version fixed. The button itself is also redesigned to have curved sides, which also reduces the chance of the thumb slipping over the button. The tip is also very sharp so I love cutting tape on packages with it.

The Neptune came in a flavor listed as "drop blade" which is actually kind of a tanto. I got a silver body one in the second drop to go with my black body double edge from the first drop.

@Prizrak-hv6qk 2 ай бұрын

Neptune is a lot closer to the Combat Troodon and the blade is extra thick and wide. This is closer to an Ultratech and I don''t find the blade design very appealing. Personally, I like Neptune more, other than the blade steel, which is still fine on the Neptune... Magnacut is just better.

@Prizrak-hv6qk 2 ай бұрын

@@delaney3722 That sucks to hear. My dagger and drop/tanto blade versions both came with very nice edges - sharper than my Ultratech and two Heretics. The blade geometry is not great for cutting and slicing though, especially on the dagger, but that's to be expected with such blade types. They both still slice paper pretty well considering. You just have to go from the right angle.

60HRC Magnacut is poopoo town when it comes to small blades. Even on larger fixed blades most at least go 61-62HRC. I can't get smart on why these Chinese OEMs, and why they decide to run EVERY steel at the same hardness at 58-61 (with a FEW exceptions). They have super advanced heat treating and tempering ovens, and I'm sure both the community and Steel manufacturers/distributors will help develop a protocol that achieves the desired hardness AND it's in the datasheet.

@wes.killed.it.5511 2 ай бұрын

Curious as to the reasoning? USA and Chinese knife OEM manufacturing is basically 1:1 ratio as far as quality/fit and finish and execution; most may even argue China is slightly superior in that area. If it came down to being against purchasing Chinese products in general then you probably wouldn't even be willing to make the $50 purchases either so it doesn't appear that country of origin is where you are drawing the line. Just seems peculiar to cut off your purchases at the $50 area when there are certainly high quality items in the $100-$250 range and even vastly higher than that as well. But anyways, just generally curious on the take, thanks.
