Winterblade Severn: a departure for the brand but still feels familiar

No magnets in the lock.
No magnets in the frame.
What is happening with the world?
Has Bryan gone insane?
Welcome to the Severn, a new model from Winterblade that still retains that familiar DNA yet operates completely differently.

I’ve been wanting to see Jim’s take on the Severn! I’m pumped! Can’t wait to get my very own!

Ironically, people are starting to mod their shark lock knives with magnets, inspired by the Factor, to give them a cleaner break--more akin to a standard detent. Now Winterblade is coming out with a shark lock inspired knife, but without the magnetic detent. He should investigate that before it goes into production.

Definitely more magnetic shenanigans in the works! ;D There are locks and deployment mechanisms that work best with magnets, whereas other mechanisms work best with springs... Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Also, some people love magnetic knives whereas others worry about magnets because they worry day and night that their new Elon Musk Neuralink brain implants will implode if exposed to a magnetic field (for example). I'll be continuing to design and offer models in both "categories." Cheers! 🤗🍻

Oh and thank you for the feedback! Yeah I've seen a couple people adding magnets to their bar locks and Shark locks... (Transparent Knives showed an AD20 that somebody set up with a magnetic detent on his IG page, etc). :D

Thanks for bringing this up. I was waiting for this. Seems to be a great knife but not radically different from the 'Factor'. I'm a bit on the fence on this one.

A knife for Witches & Warlocks as you can deploy it in multiple ways. Cool acoustic to go with it. Cheers mate from Australia.

Fair review. Is this a jump the shark moment for me lol I dunno. I’ve been in and out of the edc world in these last few years and was curious to see how Brian’s knives evolved. I kind of like his older stuff with the magnets and the ting. I felt that was more special.

@Mysteryboy0007 6 ай бұрын

how do we modify this blade so we have magnet for the stronger detent?

@JimSkeltonKnives 6 ай бұрын

That would be for the Factor. The Severn doesn’t use magnets for the detent feel. The one and only magnet on the Severn is the thumbstud.

@@Mysteryboy0007Ohhhh, YOU’RE smacking YOUR head?? Try a day in my shoes when I make highly detailed, thorough reviews and people still ask shit like “how long is the blade? “When do they release for sale?” And “what’s the steel??” So after 12 years of doing this, I’m forced to assume that everyone is either dumb or just doesn’t listen… and have to answer questions accordingly. So sorry you were misunderstood.

I like that laser bacon striping on the coated blade. Still waiting on my B3 factor. Longest preorder wait ever for me makes me reconsider future preorders.

I would not have put a thumb stud on this knife. Overkill for opening options and disrupts the sleekness of the design.

I know that it looks like it was designed by aliens, but I assure you that Bob Lazar had no knowledge of this knife’s design. In any event… yes, I was clear to describe the blade as PVD M390 laser engraved to have this pattern and that it is in no way Damascus.

Another con. I haven’t got my first B3 to play with before buying the Severn.

@JimSkeltonKnives 9 ай бұрын

“Another con” 🤦‍♂️. So, please do tell us the previous con(s) that Bryan has successfully pulled off that left you feeling victimized. Since every knife ordered through his earlier preorders have delivered (and delivered within his ETA window), I think you might be trying to stir the pot needlessly. I don’t recall the delivery times stated for the B3 initially, but Bestech has a decent reputation of delivering on time, so while it’s doubtful that they are late beyond the estimated time stated at the time of preorder, that would be Bestech’s fault, not Bryan or Winterblade’s. So, enlighten us please. What was the estimated delivery timeframe from your B3 order and how late it is… exactly?
