That was very interesting. A really amazing looking knife that also performs well. Thanks to the person that sent it in. Thank you for testing it.
This knife definitely stands out amongst other high end knives. Thanks for showing it off!
man I've always wanted one of these... awesome it performed so well!
It's hard to believe none of that scratched a polished blade. I guess that zdp Hardness is no joke.Big thanks to the guy willing to let you do this for our viewing pleasure.
and then add DLC? ha!
@@windowbreezes Is that one DLC coated? The dlc these days is amazing stuff.
i dont think so but it would make it nuts.
@windowbreezes No doubt. Kunwu is releasing a Mirror Polished DLC Chad in ZDP 189 with full timascus scales. Excited for that one. They are no Rockstead, but they do a great job with their heat treat and DLC.
Yeah Kunwu is killin it
Awesome performance and that steel should hold a fine edge for a long time!
Man that is one awesome blade!
You did it lol congratulations my man and welcome to one of the best blades in the world in my personal opinion. Much love brother 🫵🏻😘👍🏼
WOW! Very impressive 👏
Now I need one!!
I appreciate the look you gave us of an awesome cutting knife. Thanks..!
wowwwww... i love the sound of ZDP 189 gliding!!!
Wicked good cut test!! Sweeet doood!
Both blade and handle look like liquid metal, awesome! Quite the cutter too.
TH-camr 2is1 displays a Higo II on his channel all the time, and I've always wondered how it would perform were you to actually use it.
Beautiful knives, awesome performance! Thanks for the treat!
Wow, definitely lives up to the hype!
It does!
already bought it (gold edition) 😎
If I had the cash, I would buy this beauty. Well done !
That was so fun to watch. Impressive!
Once again super happy to see it perform great glad you enjoyed it dood hope I can help out again sometime it’s my dress and user knife it’s just solid knife overall yes expensive but nothing quite like it on the market
Thanks for letting the Dood do the cut test! Very cool!
Awesome video. Always wanted to see one in action
I would say that you are definitely the first person that’s ever done this with that Knife!!!!
I believe that you are correct in the convex grind, every one I've seen appears to have that grind. Good review and cut test. Thanks.
Yo Dood! I watched the overview at lunch and had to wait until I got home to watch the cut test. Great cut test!
I've had my eye on the TRM Neutron 2 for a long time. When are we getting the cut test? If it does well, that may be the excuse to pick one up!
I feel like I’ve already done a cut test for the N2.. but maybe not. I’ll have to look in the cut test playlist.
If not, I’ll do it very soon!
@@doodysdaggers Thank you so much!
Astonishing sir.
Great video Dood. Respect. D
I knew that this would be fun for us all 🤩
Awesome knife. A beauty. Is there a function to the hole / fuller design in the blade ?
Not that I know of. It may be something they use to clamp the blade down when they sharpen it
@@doodysdaggers good thought that makes sense. I was not sure if it was a speed hole ala Homer Simpson 😂
great testing
Wow that thing is more of a laser than I thought. The Japanese don't mess around with their fine cutlery crafting. And they have a lot of pride in that type of convex grind which they call hamburgah I mean "Hamaguri-ba." ✌
1. What's that head caving intro music!
2. Good to see someone using a rockstead
First high end knife i’ve seen that I felt like might be worth the price tag.
Just get a nice flat piece of wood, tack some old denim to it and use metal polish, they recommend Pikal metal polish, it’s a paste with abrasive in it, I use it on my William Henry knife, ZDP 189 is one of my favorite steels, it’s less scary as you get use to caring for high end knives and that steel.
Good information, thank you!
Hi Kevin, You really wouldn't want to drop that beauty!
Is it worth twice the price of the Herman?
All the best David ✌️
Good question..
Damn i want one!!🔥🔥🔥
My Bark River Micro Canadian in cpm-3V has a grind like that it is convex and boy is it a cutter!
What music played in the beginning of the video? THX
Just some copywrite free generic metal
Did a cut test on a rotten evo??
I have never seen one yet
No not yet
Kizer Sparrow vs Kubey Tittyus in titanium?
I think such a good result will primarily be achieved by weak convex geometry. That is, it can be a sharpening angle of 11 degrees turning into 14 degrees on the cutting edge, on each side. At the same time, the vast majority of folding knives from the factory are sharpened 20-25 degrees to one side.
Hell yeah Dood! It’s not just for show 💯
I'm wishing I didn't watch this video!
It definitely shows the thicker geometry of the blade but it is still sharp as shit!
I am amazed how the blade stays unscratched
Video Suggestion: Top 5 Cut Test Highlights
Good one
I almost came by the end of that minute thirty intro when you flicked it open.
😂😉
The hand polishing of the blade adds to the cost. I would be afraid to scratch it. Free lifetime sharpening but you have to pay shipping to and from Japan. Goes well with some wagyu steak.
That is a sexy knife. Did it get any little scratches doing the cut test. Didn't really look like it
Nope!
Awesome cut test…thx, dood! 🔪🔪🔪
Imo, Rockstead and also Shiro knives are NOT overrated. heat treats to high end materials they are good to go
Well I’m sold! A Rockstead of some sort will definitely find its way into the collection
I would have anxiety taking a Rockstead out of my house, worried I would lose it or get robbed
Haha yeah but it’s so fun to cut with!!
I wouldn't want to get cut by that!
That clip looks a bit underwhelming compared to the rest of the knife.
Is it slippery to hold?
Zero grind looks to be synonymous with Scandi which is what I’m used to hearing it called.
Yeah same thing. Scandi, zero.
Agreed, wish it was a milled clip. It works great thiugh. Not slippery
Fucken beautiful knife!
Do you even hose boop bro?
Nice tunes
BEAST
This knife is the holy grail for me. I can never afford it. This is actually a mini samurai sword. Made with love and passion. According to ancient Japanese concepts.
Wow
2 grand?
Around 1500
I can't even watch this cause the price just pisses me off. The nerve of it!
Hamaguri-ba
That thing is too damn expensive even if I could afford it I rather cut my balls off then drop that much money on a freaking knife. Hell no! It's not worth that.
Shit pocket clip i am out😢
It was expected.Sharpening to zero is our everything!
Beautiful Knife!!!! The scales are DLC coating. Wait till you pair this one with a dlc blade.. 🤌💋
😍
