Beautiful. Seems to be a great knife with a lot of experience from the knife maker behind it.

How hard is it to sharpen a steel that hard. Thinking of buying one but want to make sure I can sharpen it on a normal stone or ceramic hone.
@BradGryphonn5 жыл бұрын
I've had mine for a while now and admittedly it's only been used for wood carving and Sisal rope cutting (see Cedric and Ada's video). However, I've only ever given it one go over a ceramic rod. Other than that, all I've had to do is strop it. It's a really good steel and the build quality is superb.

Very attractive piece with a nice design and unique steel. A question for anyone who's used one though: While I've had very good luck with scandi carbon steels for outdoor knives and axes, I've had very bad luck with edge chipping (especially in -30 temperatures) with all kinds of harder high carbon or tool steels*. Is Roselli Wootz prone to becoming more brittle in the cold. *Even had an old bark river on O1 shatter in the cold foing some very light battoning.

So is this real Wootz steel?
@Fishiness5 жыл бұрын
It's a modern take on wootz. Non alloy, 1.8% carbon forged in the superplastic region at fairly low temperatures (500degrees) that promotes extremely fine grain structure...in the 100s nanometer grain size....so very hard and surprisingly ductile. Very challenging to sharpen., Require diamond sharpeners.

It had better be nice and sharp before you head out, because at 68hrc you'll have a hell of a time sharpening it in the bush.

@@rossogden9920 It genuinly is supposedly 65-68hrc, and its something about the steel Roselli uses for these. Its not your typical carbon steel.

At 68 HRC I'd be afraid that if I dropped it that it might chip at the tip. That's harder than any of my Japanese chef's knives and I imagine it takes a while to bring back the edge if you ever need sharpen it.
@BradGryphonn5 жыл бұрын
Despite the hardness, it is a strong steel for its intended use. I sent my Bearclaw to Cedric and Ada Gear & Outdoors for him to check out. You can find the video through a quick KZbin search. He tests the cutting edge at 2 different angles and discusses the knife.

that isn't wootz steel just because it's carbon blade and that it's a hard steel doesn't make it wootz.if you study wootz you can see this fake not even close to wootz.

Actually, the composition of this steel is almost identical to the traditional Wootz that came from India. Also, it is very similar to the Wootz that was created from the ore mine South of Damascus that the original 'Damascus' Wootz came from. Vanadium was the ingredient that occurred naturally in the Indian ore mines and the one South of Damascus. It may be a 'copied' steel, but it's certainly not 'fake'.

@@mikegarwood8680 Not the pattern, the composition of the steel. The pattern means nothing. The mineral and elemental components of the steel are the focus. Granted, it may not be identical, but the research that went into creating this composition is more than any other maker has done.

Also the process of making woots Damascus steel has been lost to time so it's most probably a fake technique or a imitation of some kind the actual process of making real woots steel isn't known yet scientists are still trying to figure out how they made the original steel that is found in museums and the process behind making it

Yeah i personally think its just marketing thing. Thats one reason im not massively interested in these even though many here in finland seems to like them because im bit of history buff, and calling some modern steel "wootz" is bit off putting. I have also more practical reason just by looking at roselli handles they are maybe not for my hand, and their bare blades that i could make my own handle, and sheath for are way over prized i think
