Magnacut Inkosi Insingo large blade.

[BeggarSo]

I recently purchased a Magnacut Inkosi Insingo large blade from a Chris Reeve listed Dealer.

When comparing it to the same model in S45Vn they have made allot of changes you can really tell in the way it cuts I have owned many Chris Reeve Sebenza Inkosi etc and this is the sharpest I have ever came across.

It is also lighter than the previous model and the blade is shaped different the swedge on the front is longer and thinner.

Does anyone know if this is true of all the Magnacut line. Has Chris Reeve knives been doing CQI? If so this is a move in a good direction.

I am not aware of any differences.

I have a recent DP Magnacut 31 and measured a recent umnumzaan; both have excellent grinds and are thinner BTE than my older Sebenzas. The 'Zaan was .014 BTE!

Because there really aren't any differences.

In the steels that CRK uses/used people would not really notice any difference in real use.

S30V, S35VN, and now Magacut are so all in the same category so noticing what steel is which in real use would be highly doubtful.

Thought I would throw in a little realism here.

This question in the form of a post was not about the steel itself, it was about the changes the model has underwent in terms of geometry, weight and changes in thinness behind the edge compared to earlier models and I was wondering if anyone else had the same experience.

I only ever had the two Inkosis I own now - Large Insingo MagnaCut and Large Drop Point S45VN - and the MagnaCut has a pretty thick BTE grind, the S45VN is quite a bit thinner. However those are two different blade shapes so not really apples to apples
