CPM 3V knife destruction demo, CPK 5 Basic Field Knife

[@greekveteran2715]

I wish I had this knife.... This is a sad moment,for those that don't live in the USA, and will probalby never have a chance, to have knife like this in their hands.. Congrats for the overall performance you got, out of that knife sir!

[@strangelyfamiliar1729]

I sent a txt through, via your site, enquiring as to the price. Didn't notice any prices online although I may be missing something. Do you have any prices posted online or do we contact you for info?

[@markbabcock40205]

Very nice Nathan. Just picked up my 1st CPK Kephart. Might have to jump on this also. Thanks for the video.

[@calebburgett1058]

Another great video, Nathan! Looking forward to the release.

[@alexschwan625]

One of the best in the industry. Thanks for the Demo 👍

[@TheCutshaw]

I am so stoked and excited about this one! Great Job!

[@dozierlester3971]

Nice video. Great knife! Looks like a fabulous user. Well done.

[@spektr540hemi]

Were can a fella get your knives? I see them in videos from time to time...have seen 3 in person... REALLY like the bigger ones. Would dearly love to acquire some of my own.

[@heyarno]

That's impressive. I wouldn't go as far as the side loading abuse. But sometimes accidents happen. And it's really nice when the knife survives. I also used to believe carbon steel will never rust on me, because I take care of it. But one summer day I was obscenely sweaty. And the thin oil film on my blade didn't keep it from rusting. Since then I polished out the bit of rust, learned basic leather crafting to protect the blade better and also improved the protective compound with a bit of bees wax. I'm sure what you created is stainless enough for my needs.

[@luciusirving5926]

Awesome design and superb durability!

[@ranger5281]

First, appreciate this effective video. I received my Basic 5" field knife today (Sept 9, 2021). I like it. I hope it's successful from a business standpoint, as I'd like to see other "Basic" designs in 3V (or later, Magnacut). I think the features that you removed to reduce price-point were all reasonable: * I don't greatly miss jimping, or deep chamfer on "guard", or the handle steel skeletonization (we got a tad more blade length in trade to balance the knife, per the video). * For this size knife, the lanyard loop (milled into the handle butt) is the only thing I kinda miss, BUT, I totally understand you had to make choices to reduce machine and finishing time, and I like what did here. Maybe a quick compromise would be a simple drilled lanyard hole without a liner since we're in micarta, although that might reduce ultimate durability if someone pounds on the handle butt and whacks the micarta and not the tang. Overall, nice work! Look forward to using this one for sure.

Finally! A knife maker who knows the correct edge angle for a KNIFE... 20°! Too many knife makers/users want to give a knife an 'AXE' edge of 12° ~ 15°. Do you have a website or list of knives/prices where they can be purchased?

[@greekveteran2715]

As said, after a lot of years of proffesionaly sharpening knives, 21° Is the perfect edge.That's why most of the outdoors knives,come with 20°. He said in the video, that kitchen knives come with 20°, but I think, that kitchen knives come or at least should come, with less than 20°. Around 15° - 17° is an ok angle for kitchen knives. For axes, I would go 25° for choppers and 30° to 35° for splitting axes.

Nathan, any plans to start using some MagnaCut? One of your field knives in that steel is my dream knife.

[@sharamkh]

Will try to get one! 👌

[@WhispyWoods.]

First Seriously though this is absolutely mind blowing performance. True steel wizardry. ETA?

[@ronaldbundick9898]

When will the Basic 5 be Available for Purchase ?

[@NateAIM]

We will have the first few available on our forum on blade forums this Friday. We'll have a larger sale of 50 on blade forums two weeks after that and then again two weeks after that. This was an experiment so production is limited to about 300.

[@mikepalma8083]

So is the field knife the utility field knife or is the utility knife smaller? I know the basic is bigger but i mean othet knife in the video

[@christianrink1891]

I just received my Survive! GSO 5.1 Magnacut, beautiful knife but your 7" blade in Delta 3V is what I really want. Paypal pay in 4 helps

[@rpnbf8196]

I hope you do more runs of these. That last run went far too fast for me.

[@jhonrutger3508]

Hey man how do I buy one of your knives? I'm interested in that super duty field knife.
