Oh yea! Let’s goooo! 👊💪

Good work Guy Kicking ass my friend Things are looking Great

Any video update on EDC-3’s K890 and final Magnacut 5.1’s would be greatly appreciated. Keep up the awesome work 👏🏼

Lookin good, Guy. So I know there are a bunch of other blades you just showed, does that mean the 12's are taking a back seat again, or are you working on them in-between? I'm not asking to give a hard time I'm genuinely wondering if I this is going to be an after summer thing now and I won't be using it at this summers camp. Any info or update will be really appreciated. Last month hit 3 years and I'm holding strong bro. Please some clarity would be huge 🙏🏻

Would have been great to see some of these larger blades made from LC200N. Would be really tough and virtually rust proof. Nobody uses that steel with larger blades except custom knife makers.

Great to see you getting to move forward. 👍🙂

Looking good Guy!

👏👍

Any word on the GSO 12s?

When you ship the last of the 10s, you need to have a video for that. That will be a milestone in itself.

👍🖖

Any idea if GSO 12s will come back to preorder or is there still too much going on for the foreseeable future?

Dang you working late get some sleep brother

Excellent to hear Guy! Even though many are talking sh!t about you, Survive! and your processes - know that there are many of us who stand with you, especially those of us who have your knives (I have 3)! 😊

✔️👍

👍👍👍👍👍

I don't mind waiting a while for a quality product, but will we be getting an update on progress with various models? Specifically I'm wondering what's the status of the EDC 5 / EDC 5.5s.

GSO-12 ??

i might not understant well but do you mean that petes heat treat compagnie is not someone you can trust their work? that would be quite a big news i guess

I certainly hope that you can find a company that meets your high standards Guy! - All the best!

Now that is really screwed up Guy! I certainly hope that you have found another company to heat treat your blades. Your high standards are why you have a loyal customer base!

When someone wants you silenced, they are afraid of what you have to say. I hope you are doing well and keep making my favorite knives.

Roman Landes Heat Treatment recommendation: Now this is what I would recommend for heat treat cpm 3v: 1st preheat: 500-600°C, equalize 2nd preheat:800-900°C, equalize Authenize: 1060-1070°C, equalize, soak 30-35min Quench in Oil preheated 60-80°C Cryo: immediately after cleaning, minimum -80°C or lower soak 30min 1st Temper: 150°C equalize, soak 2hrs, quench in water Cryo: immediately after temper 2nd Temper: 180-200°C equalize, soak 2hrs should give you 60+ and a fine durable grain. RGDS Roman This is why I would do it like this. The "receipt" suitable is for a vacuum furnace (Quench with maximum pressure) or a regular cline, but surface protection has to be assured. Salt bath will cut the soak time approximately by 1/3 and thus give better aust-grain. The preheating steps will assure the the austenization steps can be done quick. Quicker speed >> smaller grain Authenization temperature is dedicated to dissolve Chrome and Molybdenum >> fair hardness and some enhanced "Stainresistance" is to be expected. The vanadium will remain in the steel bond as a compound of carbon, hence aust-grain cant really grow The oil quench is suitable for any steel out of the air hardening classes. The thin cross sections get higher hardness after quench (greater volume fraction of martensite) and a less stabilized volume fraction retained austenite. (The volume fraction of RA can be expected (near guess) between 20 and 30% or even higher) Warping of the blade shall not be an issue with these materials. If you have done a lot of hard mechanical work before hardening (milling, grinding,)then do a stress relief so warping gets less likely. The cryo needs to be done as quick as possible below -80°C. RA tends to stabilize rather quickly after the quench (some reports speak of minutes) The longer you wait, the less efficient the transformation to untempered martensite will be. And a minimum of -70°C is necessary to get enough stress into the micro structure, so the transformation (RA>>Martensite) process can restart again. Extensive soak time is not necessary since the process runs at hypersonic speed. But still there will be remains of RA that need to be addressed by the 2nd cryo. The first temper is a low temper so the remaining RA is stabilized at the lowest level possible and at the same time there is enough stress relief in the martensite that has been built and furthermore the transformation from tetragonal to cubic martensite is started. The water quench speeds the whole thing up and avoids precipitation of embrittling phases. Then the rest of the remaining RA will be attacked by the 2nd cryo (usually the RA will drop below 5% volume fraction) so burr formation is less likely. 2nd temper will now temper the untempered martensite build up by the cryo and bring the blade to a fully tempered martensitic structure with a low volume fraction of RA and a fair amount of carbides undissolved. Of course there is the question why not temper it at 540°C? First of all, if you don't have access to cryo then this is your way to go. In my studies of edge stability I did extensive work to compare secondary hardening and low temper with cryo. The results (reference is my graduate thesis 1999 Munich University of Applied Sciences) I found considerable higher edge stability with the samples that had low temper/cryo The material used at the time was ATS-34 all with the same charge and thus the same condition of austinization, but with different temper cycles.

Peen hammer's help with warps. Some knife makers sell them. You can even make your own.

I don't want to watch a half hour of videos just to probably find out you don't even say the word Vendetta in any of them. Can I expect the knife I ordered in September of 2022 anytime soon or not?

Is there something wrong with magnacut itself? Wouldn't other steels have these issues if it was due to faulty processing?

When you get things all sorted out i WILL own one of your knives..used to work for a knife maker in the 90s..the average knife user cant know the problems that can and do occur..its good to see you putting this out..

So now that you’ve figure the problems out can you take an admin day and contact us on where we are in the que and that you haven’t forgotten our orders? We all paid for these knives, some years ago and let us know estimated delivery? It’s not a lot to ask. I’m not sure if you forgotten my order. You won’t answer emails.

So when it was time for PHT to step up, they ran away from the problem and told you to live with it. I hate to say this but if one of their kids are permanently maimed in the hospital, the doctors should tell them, "well you came in for a fix and we fixed it. We aren't responsible for the fact your child has lost half their leg in the process."

Business is a jungle, especially when things go wrong. I’m surprised that Peters would use a process that is so loosie goosie as blowtorch mitigation without retreating the entire specimen. Maybe Peters is like Boeing, too big to stay focused.

It wasn't your fault. It was bad steel. You knew it, they knew it and finally we all know it. Thank you for your efforts! I am certain you have already done much more for the knife industry and its quality standards world wide, than you just did for your own business. Keep up the great work!

Keep up the great work!🙏

I used to think a knife was just a simple sharpened piece of steel .. Anyone could make one out of a file and some grinding tools..... DAMN...Thank you Guy for actually teaching me/us so much and being so willing to show us everything good and bad..... I am a customer for life...

Damn you are catching hell lately! I applaude you for doing right and making sure ur products are solid!

For skinning all of those are fine .. want my address? 🤣

limited edition steak knife sets, maybe?

If I order a K890 knife today who'll have done the heat treatment on the knife I'd receive in the future? Peters or the new one?

Dumbfounded about the torch straightening.... Am I missing something or should they in 2024, know better?

GSO 5.5?

Notice how my comment was ignored? Order #20286

The rest of the knife making community would love to have an alternative to Pete's. Could you please share with us who's the new heat treat provider? Especially if their results are better.

Bring 100 percent in house. Full control. Just sayin...

Looking forward to updates on the 4.7 👍

Bummer. I really hope things work out for ya soon. I have been dying for a 4.5 standard update. It’s hard to wait without feedback but I do know your working on it

Will the new heat treatment companies not straighten the knives? Will you peen them straight? Or does their process not need straightening? If so, what new heat treatment company are you using?

You need to send the report to a lab in Europe? Priceless

Looking forward to conclusion, and to continue to make quality knives, getting anxious waiting forward to my 5.1 in magnacut.

Many thanks for the investigation and the consistent follow-up. This is how real quality products are made! All the best for the future and continued success. Looking forward to my next SurviveKnifes knife having full trust in the in you company and the products. Best Regards from Germany ✌️ Ps.: man do I’ve fun working with my 5.1 - it never failed - many thanks.

lol corporate. you need a lab to tell you that if you dig through a material and shit shows up its in the material. They act like they don't know what a shovel is. Amazing. Perhaps they think you made those with a turkey baster

This is my first time hearing this. Good for you man keep up your standards. People on the internet can hide behind a keyboard and they are addicted to hate
