Accidental corrosion test of an s90v Para 3 LW

[metaphoricalsimile]

I lost this knife in November of last year, so it has been chilling in the dirt and leaves through a very rainy winter. I disassembled it and cleaned it up, which removed most of the rust that was mainly concentrated in the jimping, around the detent ball and on the stop pin. It's opening and closing smoothly and I think has overall held up quite well.

That’s an awesome real life corrosion resistance test. Thanks for sharing ! S90v held up to the element better than I expected. What an awesome steel and knife!

This post further confirms my love of S90V. Maybe the best stainless? Love my DLT PM2 S90V DLC

Very nice! Thats why it's my favorite steel. I think we'd all be fine if all future knife blades were made of S90V. I don't think that could be said for the rest of them.

This confirms what many of us knew for a while - S90V is extremely corrosion resistant.
Glad you find your knife, and thanks for sharing!

Excellent! Now the knife has a story to tell. And she looks grrrrreat.
