I been using mine for a good while now, and the knife pretty much impressed me right out of the box. Performance has been excellent. As usual, Kunwu knocked it out of the park. Regarding Vanadis 8, you can see it as an A11 (CPM 10V) type steel but with much higher toughness and slightly less edge retention. In fact, toughness closer to that of Vanadis 4 Extra (Cpm 4V), as it shares a similar base composition with increased Carbon and Vanadium. Just a beautiful steel to use, and I would not be surprised to see more of it in the future.

The Stiffy P is the fixed blade version of the Pulsar 👍 Vanadis 8 is a tool steel like K390.
@Vamtal19 күн бұрын
Vanadis 8 is basically tougher CPM 10V or K390 with lower heat resistance. Excellent high wear resistance non-stainless steel.

Again, MC, congratulations on your success. You have been steadfast on your assessments and vision. Open on others' opinions. I admire it. Stay resilient to change. If you ever get tired of this job, let me know. We could use good people like you in the military.😊 Merry Christmas.

Kunwu has quickly become my favorite maker. I think I have at least 10 of their blades now and am anxious for my Excalibur to ship. Sure would be nice to have some timascus clips....hint hint! LOL!

The other clip is what you want. Its in the box. Fixed my “problem”. Much better. MUCH slimmer. Clips up nicely. Pocket it if you wish. Trim. 🤗

Those clips are pretty sweet. I may have to spice up my Django with one.

Vanadis 8 is a tool steel, in its properties it lies somewhere between 4V and 10V. Essentially a slightly tougher K390. With DLC it should resist corrosion well enough. Nice steel, and I say as someone who hates tool steels.

MC, thx to you I preordered my timascus Compadre back spacer and pocket clip from Kunwu knives. I wouldn’t have known about the clip and back spacer unless I watched your content.

That's a fine looking knife. Sergio never disappoints.
@ericnurko18 күн бұрын
I love the way a timascus clip looks, but for a knife I’m going to carry, the clip always gets beat up, so I’ve found for me the best solution is to keep the timascus or Zircuti pieces to other parts of the knife and have a plain titanium clip, that way when it gets a few bumped into a few times it won’t be noticeable.
@SteelAddicted19 күн бұрын
I’m pretty sure it comes with a pocket clip attachment for the sheath in the box I think u sat it off to the side when u unboxed it. I hope the holidays find u and urs well thanks for giving me something to watch at the in-laws 😉

I'm a big Kunwu fan and they will do great with the Excaliber, but I always thought that if (when) you designed a knife that Reate would be the oem.

You had the included pocket clip in your hand, but put it to the side with the words „oh there’s some parts with it“ 😅 Guess you figured that out in the meantime 😉

Can you do a review of the cretace ares. It has almost no blade play. I wouldn't say it if it wasn't true. I can't even fit a hairs width in between the blade and the housing because they machined it so well. I couldn't believe how amazong the knife is. I bought a 2nd because my first one got stolen. This past weekend, I had a guy compare it to his hera, and he asked how he could get one. For 80 bucks, what you get is just astonishing. I would be willing to send mine to a metal complex if he wants to try it out and do an honest review.
