Phil Wilson Thoughts on Steels

[RLDubbya]

I've been carrying my S90V Manix2 XL this past week and doing some yard work with it (my Tasman Salt still rules out there).

Figured I need to carry a bigger knife so I'm not shocked when the Police4 finally comes to hand.

Rather than use a box cutter (my usual tool) for all that awaits me in the garage, I think I'll use the Manix so I have a reason to sharpen it...

CURSES!


Foiled again.

Thanks for the Phil Wilson articles.

I'll have to dig a little deeper to see if I can come up with any justification for my notion that I like S90V better than S110V. That's one of my excuses for the fact that a couple of hours ago I ordered a Blurple S110V Manix2 to compare to my much liked S90V Manix2 XL.

You are welcome.

I think you just need to send that Manix XL in S90V to me, and I'll use it for a couple years, returning it with a full write-up comparing it to an S110V Manix. I would do this at no charge to you in the interest of science. Drop me a PM for my address.

I'd love to do that, but that would leave me with only my 2014 Forum LtWt Native 5 in S90V to test... and I really need both it and the XL, to average out to the size of the blurple Manix... so I guess that leaves you foiled by both me and wrdwght, but wait, I could send them to you after I get through testing, and I could send the blurple Manix as well, to keep the controls consistent
