Victorinox Swiss Army Knife Rust Resistance Test

[@maryandsam2]

When you first showed the 30 year old Swiss army knife I figured it must be pretty darned rust resistant! Nice to have it proved beyond doubt though! Love SAK's good stuff Vinnie, stay safe chap.

[@vinniesdayoff3968]

Thank you indeed kind sir 👍

[@BradW.]

Vinnie, hope you are doing well! Looks like you haven't had a day off in a while 😉. Been missing your videos! Best wishes!

[@greekveteran2715]

I work on a Beach. I have used both Leathermans and Victorinox Mulltitools. Leathermans rust, especially inside the pliers teeth. I upgraded to Victorinox Swiss Tool Spirit X and for the last 2 years, I never had any rust issues, no matter if I left the tool with moisture or drops of water on it or not! Only part, that Leathermans are ahead of Victorinox, is the wire cutters. For anything else, I would always choose Victorinox.

[@vinniesdayoff3968]

Thanks for the input Veteran. Constant exposure over time is the true test.

[@stevenchurch8901]

Well done as usual sir! I will add that I grew up on the Southern Oregon Coast in Brookings. I carried a SAK every day without fail whether salmon fishing with my father, or hunting and fishing in the Kalmiopsis wilderness. Always salt in the air there. My SAK was used hard, often neglected as far as cleaning, and never took to rusting.

[@vinniesdayoff3968]

Thanks Steven. I have similar experience but I wanted to demonstrate it. The simple SAK is outstanding in many ways

[@timatchley7114]

Good day Vinnie, I was watching this video and it reminded me of some videos Mors Kochanski did a few years ago regarding care for your knives. I've been watching some old videos Mr. Kochanski did and he really had great ideas when it comes to wilderness skills. I remember your video of a tribute you did to him and I think that was very kind to recognize a man for his life's work. I noticed also most people who have wilderness skills don't use the large survival knives and prefer a smaller thin blade with a Skandi grind over the thicker bladed knives. I enjoy your videos and keep up the good work my friend. Thank You!

[@vinniesdayoff3968]

Thank you for your kind words Tim. Mors had a vast amount of knowledge. One would have to listen carefully to take it all in

You might have put stress on the back spring where both blades were left open for some time try putting it in some worm water and keep opening and closing both blades under the water then a little bit of oil might do the job but it is a funny thing how it went like that hope it works for you but you can't beat the victorinox Swiss Army knives and the opanel are a great knife as well both are great the one I've been using lately is the new victorinox farmer x 93mm aelox scales its a good daley and the pins and blad are alot stronger than the Red 91mm Swiss Army knives don't get me wrong both are great but the farmer x in my opinion is a bit bigger and stronger and UK lagel so a good allrandr edc knife thanks again for sharing this video with us👍

I have a small Case folder that I used for years then left it on the porch in an open tool box for another 30 years it got significant rust and pitting it cleaned up well and is still serviceable.

[@vinniesdayoff3968]

In my limited experience the Case CV steel rusts pretty quickly in Irish conditions. I believe the older knives were of a higher quality. My dad and I had a theory that a knife lost outdoors for a year or so made a great knife when it was cleaned up and the rust removed. It probably thinned the blade and removed the steel from the grinding 🤔🤔

[@KnifeChatswithTobias]

That’s was cool. I wonder if it would rust if you left it sit with the salty residue for a week or so. I know the general rule is to rinse in cold fresh water after use to prevent rusting. But both knives seemed to be doing just fine.

[@vinniesdayoff3968]

Give it enough time and anything will rust but I suspect they would not do too badly Tobias. The RR has lost its back spring power in the spey blade. I can't figure out why that should happen. It is clean and well oiled now. Any advice?

[@stevehuffman7453]

I've lived on the ocean (in a boat) on a large freshwater lake, (on another boat) and in an ocean front property house. The "salt water" wind and humidity didn't rust any of my knives, to include my SAK Recruit and Huntsman.

[@SoldierDrew]

@@vinniesdayoff3968 if I may offer some information regarding slip joint knives back springs & the most common reason they wear out or the pin breaks is due to opening two blades to half open position at same time along the same back spring. This is common practice among people showing the blades but it over stresses the back spring and the spring pin, resulting in eventual failure. I learned this from an older pocket knife repairman.

[@chrisosh9574]

Hi Vinnie. Good yo see you back. I don't know if this will help with the Rough Rider, but when I worked on yachts and small boats a lot of things like tackle blocks would seize up solid. What we would do with them was clean them out in boiling water as the salt in solution would penetrate everywhere, dry and go incredibly hard. I suspect salt has built up on the spay backspring, the boiling water would usually get stuff back working after one time but always after two goes. No idea how the yellow scales will hold up but perhaps just pouring the water in will do the job.

[@vinniesdayoff3968]

That sounds logical Chris. There has to be some mechanical reason a strong spring would suddenly become weak. I've tried the boiling water as per your suggestion but there is no change yet. I'll try it some more. One of the guys suggested that the handle scales might have expanded but they are polymer as far as I know. I would like to find out what happened

[@clintstinkeye5607]

I worked on the waterfront for a couple of decades. Victorinox knives will eventually rust and pit, primarily from lack of use I suspect. I've seen a lot of corroded SAKs that had been thrown into a drawer on a boat and hadn't been used at all. Just occasional use and wiping the blades clean with fingers keep those little fellers in great shape.

Anything will corrode eventually especially in salt water. One should take care of ones gear

[@vinniesdayoff3968]

Thank you Jose 👍. I was actually interested to see what would happen myself.

[@Traderjoe]

The only reason I can think why the spey blade might have lost any snap might be from swelling of the handle material or slight corrosion on the pins within the handle that might have affected the spring of the blade. I suspect that oil and opening and closing a number of times would return the tension to where it was before.

Good morning Vinnie, I'm getting back to you regarding my last post on Perkins Knives. This is what I was able to find on the internet. Perkin appears to be a 🇬🇧 UK based company but according to what I read the blades are mostly made in Pakistan. My experience with some of their blades has been marginal in quality . I made a knife years ago in my garage using an old circular saw blade and a deer antler for a handle my friend gave me. Old saw blades have high carbon steel and holds an excellent edge. Here's the trick, when cutting out the knife pattern you can't overheat the metal which will take away the temper process from the steel. The saw blade knife turned out pretty good and holds an excellent edge but as with any carbon steel you have to clean and oil it to keep the rust away. I just wanted to share this with you and I hope your doing good. Take care my friend.

I use Vaseline on my blades then a light wipe with a paper towel....gives great protection. check inside the knife where the blade closes. most times on cheap knives they don't use high grade stainless between the scales. id spray WD40 inside to get rid of microscopic water droplets then coat the blade with whatever oil or in my case Vaseline

@@ahmelmahay Did you see the comment I wrote about the Rough Rider Joe? It had strong backsprings on both blades but by the time I finished one backspring was weak and floppy. I can't figure out what happened. It was washed and well oiled . Any input from yourself??
