You were saying you thought these should be priced on the $250 range. Well Chicago Knife Works has them for $242 to $263 or so. Just checked yesterday.

@@prestonpartin5024 That isn't a good deal. The aforementioned Chicago Knife Works has T5's for $130 and they don't charge tax. You also get an instant discount on your first order. I ended up getting my T5 for around $120.

Absolutely love LionSTEEL knives, I own an M1, M4, T5, and T6. My T6 steel is CMP 3V... hard, hard hard. Never had an issue with chopping. It is a bit large for me so I prefer the T5... still, love the T6.

Customer service and quality is very important. If there was an issue I’m glad to see they remedied the problem. They will have my business for sure. I have a 5 and love it. Just a smooth strong knife.

Hey Matt - Excellent analysis and review! Thanks for pointing out that potential issue with the minor handle crack. It was good to know Lion Steel has great customer service - especially because I also do not live in Italy. I currently have a severe case of "Lion Steel Fever", so I'm planning to get the T6 in the future. My next buy will be a Lion Steel M4 with a walnut or santos wooden handle - I just love the combo of the wood handle, crowned spine, leather sheath, and great blade shape - very classy with such good quality for a reasonable price (not cheap, but a good value for the quality you're getting). So far, I have the: Willy, M1, M5, T5, Barlow Roundhead, L.E. One Karambit, and the SR-11 in full titanium. I usually go for knives made in the USA, but Lion Steel is so cool I'm making an exception with this company! Stunningly beautiful and high-quality knives! Thank you - I subscribed to your channel!

Excellent review. Been so close to picking one of these up. I like that despite your enthusiasm for the knife, you were still pretty critical of it. Its not perfect but I think it'll be a substantial step up from my BK-2

I’m a city guy, just wanted a garage/outside the house knife. T6, although sweet, was overkill for me…and at $260-280, just made no sense. Opted $140 delivered for a T5😎

I have the original drop version in K490. Not sure which steel is better. I'm no metalurgist, but so far it's performed quite well for me. No complaints. It's held it's edge well, and no edge deformation despite batonning through some gnarly stuff.

Good review of the T6. I’m on the fence between that and the Tops architect. Both great knives.

Personal preference: A full rounded extruded tang with larger pommel. And a sharp spine beyond normal thumb placement. The handle looks like a weak point from any impact from the underside. And with the handle off, it looks like a typical stick tang knife. Add a finger choil to better balance the blade and get closer to your work. I would also guess the 6 is as uncomfortable to chop with as the 7. To much Italian beauty and passion...not enough function...Nice knives but a bit to artsy for me to take serious. I have the T5 and M7.
@gwailotus91544 ай бұрын
why uncomfortable to chop with?
@dlrmon14 ай бұрын
The rear finger guard on the M7 is to thin and batters the finger up against it while chopping.
@rabbithole85929 ай бұрын
The impact vibration from batonning with cause significant wear and tear on your handle for sure. It's to be expected.

The spine appears to be rounded, not sharp. If that's the case, that is a huge negative for me. I was hoping you were going to mention it.

This is one of the Best knives (3v version) K390 is albo great but not so undestructible
@achimgeist518510 ай бұрын
The T6 Limited Edition has K490 and not K390 steel. The Bohler K490 is more comparable with CPM 4V. K490 is not as tough as 3V but it is a tough steel and the wear resistance is a good bit higher as 3V.

Notevole descrizione.Possiedo il t6.Sono perfettamente d'accordo, il t6 è una splendida lama ma avrebbe dovuto essere almeno 17cm per essere un discreto chopper,ed'è abbastanza possente per non eseguire al meglio i lavori di fino,devo dire che almeno è un egregio batoner e io personalmente non amo fare chopping ,per tagliare i rami grossi uso normalmente un segaccio silky. .Grazie per la condivisione

But why the huge pointless choil?? They say it makes it easier to sharpen but that's just not true, all it does is remove the 8mm or so of edge that would have been a tiny bit difficult to sharpen (depending on your method, maybe not at all). It's so stupid, I actually want that 8mm of edge!
