I’ve had the M4 bailout since December 2021, I’ve loved it since the first day I got it. Great for food prep! If you like this knife, I HIGHLY recommend the upgraded version of the Freek in M4, that’s by far my favorite benchmade. That thing is a tank, Dutch Bushcraft Knives did a test on the benchmade freek in m4 and batoned a brick in half with it and the blade survived. Couldn’t recommend enough! Good video though!
@eyeofthetiger4184 Жыл бұрын
G'day Kayra, I have the "standard" Freek and love it too. S30 or 35 is the sweet spot for price to performance and corrosion resistance, ..... for my climate anyway; and quite light weight too with the half steel liners, I assume the M4 version is not full liner either ? Anyway, not hard to baton a brick in half with just about anything, even another piece of hard timber will probably do it, if you hit it hard enough, but I guess your point is edge retention as a result, ........... fair enough ....... though we are talk'n folders here. I'm all for hard core testing of fixys, for hard core applications, but I do question whether one really needs high end blade steel, (at a high end price), ....... for a folding pocket knife. You mentioned food prep for example, ....... have you tried an Opinel for a few bucks ? Cheers Duke.

Another great review Aaron. Thanks for all of your hard work. I’m on the fence with this one. I can get a lot of different knives for the price of that one Benchmade. The M4 steel is awesome, but I’m one of those weirdo’s that enjoys putting my own edge on my knives and maintaining that edge. Your video does have me thinking about this knife though. It would definitely be a ‘grail knife’ for me. I’d probably be afraid of using it to its potential because of its price tag, but it’d be a great knife to add to the collection. Maybe if I see it on sale on one of your hyperlinks. Love your channel, keep up the excellent work.

@E.L.RipleyAtNostromo Жыл бұрын
Everything BM IS overpriced, but the Deka FRN is going to run you at least $130-$140 shipped. Then what, another $100 for Goat scales if they have them in stock? So you're over the price of this M4 blade at that point, and this is larger and heavier duty than any lightweight Bugout. Magnacut is all the rage now for some reason, but other than it having much better corrosion resistance and being easier to sharpen, M4 has far superior edge retention and the exact same toughness. Both of those are more important to me, since I take care of my blades to make sure they don't corrode, and have diamond hones and know how to use them.

@gideonstactical Жыл бұрын
Sorry, this is my first use with the steel. I am going off my experience with this knife and data, I research. High Toughness: This steel is extremely tough and scores higher in this area than other popular steel variants. Harder steels are indeed less tough. Thus, you may be wondering why M4 is both tough and hard. This steel is tough because of PM technology and high vanadium and tungsten content. The high level of toughness justifies why it is a tool steel. A CPM- M4 steel knife blade will not chip or break easily while under any lateral force.
@olafkliemt1145 Жыл бұрын
@@gideonstactical thanks for your reply. well, you could heat-treat 5Cr to 60HRC, but it would be as brittle as ceramic. special case is 14C28N where the hardness is improved with Nitrogen (the N in the name). Manganese (Mn), Silicon (Si), Nickel (Ni), and Copper (Cu) are added to increase strength of the steels by forming solid solutions in ferrite. but key is still the heat treatment. good example is Sanrenmu who get their 8Cr to 59HRC without getting brittle. no chipping but rolling. not many can do that.

CPM-M4 is not a stainless steel, the shop I work at has a drill spade insert that bores 2" holes through steel. I would not recommend it for EDC use. Especially if you live in a very humid climate like the East or NW Coast.

That’s why most mfrs DLC or otherwise coat or wash M4, but I have at least a dozen M4 blades including satin finished ones, and as long as you put some light oil on the steel they’re fine. It has amazing edge retention, and excellent toughness, but poor corrosion resistance. I use AG Russell Rust Free on all mine and it works great. A small bottle lasts for years.

The CRKT M-16 Tanto has a similar shape.

How do you think it is progressing?

I am not sure as I will not receive it until mid Jan. I found the titanium version for $200 off so I just decided to get that one. Overpriced, sure. But oh well. I don’t swap gear all the time and hope to keep this one a while. I’m liking what I read about m4 steel too. Thanks for replying. @@gideonstactical

I own a few Benchmade knives, the fit and finish is always good, however the first time your omega spring breaks in the field you end up with a $300 broken knife. Since then I prefer to put trust in Spyderco’s compression locks.

I have here and seen omega springs fail, but have never had one happen on my Benchmade’s.

I know it’s very rare but I have had one break on my Bugout. The springs on my Superfreak are much more stout, so I don’t worry much about that knife. “the more parts involved, the greater the risk of failure.” - my mechanic

It really was mostly the bugouts that did that
