Would never waste hard earned money on a Hinderer. Charging premium money for underwhelming performance is something that no user wants unless it's just a show piece that never gets used. Thanks for the great vid and keep making sharp things fun and enjoyable

There is no reason to pay the premium for a production, premium-steel knife if it is not heat-treated to get the performance out of it. One is better to support the custom makers who are willing to do things right (but they too need to be independently-tested and held accountable for their work). Thanks Shayne.

[@bobbthompson]

It's much more difficult and more expensive to machine any steel over 61 HRC. That's why most companies top out there, regardless of steel. Any BS about toughness is PR.

[@BrandonGavin_EDC]

I’ll never buy a Hinderer. $500 for bad geometry and a soft heat treat. Nope. Not to mention their piss poor customer service and attitude toward the people who purchase their knives. Dude charges $100 for a single Micarta scale like GTFOH.

[@ferklissimo8126]

"Anywhere between 59 and 64 on the Rockwell hardness scale can work great, and MagnaCut steel can be heat-treated to a range of hardnesses depending on the application. I know some out there give specific hardness targets they think are ideal, or claim a knife is no good below a certain hardness. But I feel that ignores the balance of properties you get at different hardness points." -Larrin Thomas

I already own more CRKs than I’ll ever need and they’re all S45V too but I might have to pick up one of the new Sebenzas in Magnacut just because I know they’re doing a proper heat treat. I’m also really looking forward to the ABW model 2 and the Tactile Knives Maverick cause they’re both aiming for the proper heat treat.

I would like to know neeves final conclusion on sharpening and using hinderer heat treat. I hope he is objectiv as he is linking up with TK these days.

@@tacticalcenter8658 The RSK sprints in Magnacut were both 63-64, but they did those after the initial Magnacut Deka runs so that may well be why. The m390 on my RSK and the 20cv on my mini are both pretty average to slightly above average. I haven't had any experience with their magnacut in the Deka, but I can understand if the early Dekas were on the softer side since there wasn't as much information about it that early on. They were the first or one of the first to use it in a large production knife and good on them for changing their HT due to feedback. Imo that's quite a bit different situation than with what's going on with Hinderer if he is putting them out at 60 with what we know now.

[@SharpPokeyThings]

Finally someone who speaks it like it is. why spent 500 bones on garbage heat treat. The extra money would be miniscule to get the correct hrc. First video of yours I've watched and you've got a new sub! Thank man.

[@ModernSurvivalSense]

This whole situation is dumb af. Optimal blade hardness is a range and what is deemed 'best' is subjective. A harder blade has better edge retention, but is also more brittle and harder to sharpen. A less hard blade will have a higher toughness. Magnacut is the same way. It's not some magical material. This stuff just isn't that complicated. People just love drama.

[@shaynegables]

Not completely true. Magnacut gets tougher at 64 hrc.

[@ModernSurvivalSense]

It actually doesn't. Just as EVERY other steel... as the HRC goes up, toughness goes down. Its peak toughness is at the lowest end of the heat treatment scale. Just because something can reach a higher HRC doesn't mean it needs to. There are trade offs that the makes has to take into account. A lower hardness doesn't mean the maker doesn't know what he's doing. You may not like that RH is heat treating his knives a certain way... but that's entirely on you. You have a certain set of subjective criteria that you have determined all knife makers should adhere to and that's an unreasonable expectation. They have an idea of what they want from their knives and if it meats THEIR expectations, then it was done correctly. How utterly ridiculous that you would crap on a knife maker for not hardening their blades to the HRC you want... Do you do this for every steel, or is it just in this one particular instance? I hate to be the bearer of bad news... but every maker hardens steels of all kinds a little bit differently than everyone else. Some are harder than others. It's not a reason to freak out.@@shaynegables

[@shaynegables]

It actually does. As with any steel at a certain point the steel will become brittle but magnacut is tougher at 63 than 61, it's not the only steel that reacts this way. The "old" statement that lower hrc is tougher is broadly correct but not in every steel. There's nothing wrong with the HRC range Rick used....it's the same range Case used and many others but the XM18 is an otherwise perfect performance cutting tool. Why not make every aspect perfect. There lies the disappointment.

Hinderers are good for one thing. To resale for a profit. They've never held an edge. Never ever. The geometry is crap...all hinderers have ever been to me is an investment. There's no reason to buy a hinderer to be a user. They could say it was magnacut at 63 and I wouldn't be able to tell if they really used s90v. I don't use knives enough to care ...if the edge will last a month at my job I'm good. I've had 14c28n do that, I've had aus-8 do that. I've had aus-8 fail to do that. I've had s90v fail to do that.

And if they wanted tough blades then 3v, 4v, cruwear would be way better choices, but he'd run that soft too. The one and only reason they run there steels at 61rc or under is the company's that do the bevel grinding won't grind steel over 62rc without changing out the abrasives they use and charging more. Hinderer makes knives for collectors and fan boys, not as a performance cutting tool.

Unfortunately, your entire premise that Magnacut is tougher at higher rockwell is flat wrong. Larrin has never said this. In fact, I'll quote him on it and provide a link to where he said the quote so you can hear the words from his own mouth. Suffice it to say, though, that there is NO steel that that gets tougher at it's maximum recommended hardness. There is no "something for nothing" steel. "The benefit to magnacut is that it matches the toughness and wear-resistance of non-stainless steels like 4V and therefore puts us in a new category for stainless steels. It can be heat treated to higher hardness for enhanced edge stability for more acute edges, better cutting ability, and better edge retention without sacrificing toughness when compared with previous stainless steels, or kept at a more conservative hardness when raw toughness is desired." - Larrin Thomas, kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2bPq5lugaZjadE at 11:33

Don't own a Hinderer, probably won't ever own one. Everyone has their own opinion. Mine falls very close to this video. good luck

[@CaptSeeryus]

Hinderer fanboys are not the sharpest and Medford fanboys are on the duller side. But seriously though, they can be HRC 50 and itll be ok because RHK fanboys dont actually use their knives to cut things.

Hate to say it your all wrong.. Not about the blade steel of course about the knife itself.. Hinderers are fucking fantastic knives.. Get them in S45VN dummies.. There great.. Shayne your the man but i hate to say it #rickhindererrules.. Btw i would never use my hinderer enough to scratch.. Its too pretty 🤣🤣🤣.. plus has anyone actually tested the magnacut or is this just here say? Seriously tho from my experience hinderers is one of the only knives that are actually worth the price.. that is real talk from someone whos had alot of other bullshit American knives.. Hinderers quality is is on point.. idgaf about the heat treat. I wanna nice knife at that price point.. Also you are right though 😂🤣🤣.

Chaz I love my XM18 I'm not mad because it's bad. I'm mad because it would have been so easy to make it the best.....across the board the best design out there

[@ChazLikesSharpObjects]

@@shaynegables i know.. i started off trolling and the started rambling and wrote a book.. I actually think your right.. Its irritating that they put out a good cake but dont put icing on it

[@agoodun]

Hinderer knives have always been a rip off. Way overpriced and garbage 💩💩💩🗑️🗑️🗑️

[@ssunfish]

All this makes me think we're all brainwashed into thinking in ways that benefits others and hurts us! What about if a knife works well, it won't " look" or "feel" right? Same thing on LT Wright. I heard he runs them soft because of the dipshits misusing knives that forces him to. What we have is an industry ( knives) that's a perfect vehicle for college graduate marketing companies to profit of of. We pay more for less and beautiful knives are caught in the crossfire!!!!! I'm doing something about it on my own and not gonna blab about it. Cheers to the ones commenting here and to the video poster.

I don’t think I can remember ever hearing a grown man get so emotional and his panties in such a wad over a knife!😂

[@shaynegables]

My panties are easily wadable. Thanks for watching

[@kylehudson1395]

I thought this hrc witch hunt was funny . Nobody even uses these knives for anything besides cutting paper 📃

[@shaynegables]

@kylehudson1395 very true, but he switched to s45 which he does better so good for him.

[@tgonzalez1983]

I used to want the project x but I lost interest. Some companies are stuck in their ways & pump out blades in the easiest way possible rather than “the best way” possible. To me, that shows greed & malicious intent so I won’t support it.

[@jacobdiscipleofjesusforeve419]

It's a knife bro. Not an idol. Or is it?

[@shaynegables]

I will have to put some thought into that

[@jacobdiscipleofjesusforeve419]

@EDGY AMERICAN bless you brother in Jesus Christ name. I'm picky about my knives as well. I pretty much was preaching to the choir.
