Benchmade had a problem early on with their S30V chipping on the edge, they changed their heat treatment and solved the problem, hadn't heard about Spyderco Maxamet chipping, normally Spyderco is spot on with heat treatment. I haven't tried Maxamet yet, it's on the list. Good video. Thanks. Can't wait for the final review.

Looking forward to your full assessment. I snagged a pm2 in Maxamet on the spyderco seconds sale for 79. It’s perfect other than that. It has a tiny nick on the grind and 2 tiny black specks on the g10 scales. Spyderco really knows how to put a factory edge on them. Sharpest factory edge I’ve ever seen. I ordered a work sharp precision adjust. It uses diamond so hopefully that’ll work well.

I've really appreciated all your videos on Maxamet, yours are the only honest reviews I found with someone actually using it! They convinced me to give it a shot, so I got the Maxamet PM2. I use it primarily for breaking down boxes, slicing up food, even did some wire cutting/stripping with it at work on 18 gauge stranded copper wire. Super impressed with its edge holding ability.

The statement of only liking steels that were designed for knives is odd considering there are very few and virtually none are outstanding save one that I can think of. If one takes a look at the manufacturers data sheets you will discover that most of the top tier steels are originally designed for Manufacturing cutting tools such as end mills, bearings, and dies. Sure there are a few. S30v S35V and S45V to a point, but none of those are top tier steels in today's World. Only one I can think of off the bat that would qualify as a top tier steel expressly designed for Knives is Magnacut. No doubt there are a very small hand full of others. But can be counted on one hand and have fingers left uncounted. This discounts steels designed for other purposes that are upgraded for knives such as M398 but M390 it is derived from is again, not originally designed for a knife blade. KnifeMaker

Try the native 5 in S90 V. They are just now becoming widely available again for about $260. According to knife steel nerds S 90 V is almost as wear resistant as Maxamet while tougher and stainless.

Or should I just stick to plain S45? I'm really torn on whether to get a para 2 or 3 -I want one because everyone calls the para the flagship.
