    The problem is that these will cut through your meat, your cutting board, your marble counter top, your Corolla, Earth's mantle and Inner Core, time and space,......

    As an engineer that used to work in the packaging industry and prior a person that worked in shipping. That box is nothing like I've seen before, other than in furniture making. Very cool.
  • @tengkuadam1399
    I can't tell if he's just really impressed by the scores or if it's physically impossible
  • You should get a microscope with enough accuracy to see the edge and surface of a knife. That can tell you a lot about the quality, the sharpness, and the material properties. In fact, if you can measure the width of the sharp edge (which does seem ridiculous) you can directly observe how sharp it is, as opposed to indirect observation through testing.

    I started out being curious about Japanese knives and ended up watching sharpening videos on your channel because I wanted to be prepared. Fast forward a few months and I held a workshop for knife maintenance with nothing but a simple combo stone. My colleagues were really happy seeing their knives whizz through A4 paper like butter. Thanks a lot Ryky! Ps: those knives seem unreal.
  • @solosniper86
    It's not just the skill of the sharpener and polisher, but the maker of that steel. The grain structure has to be so refined that it's even possible to get an edge that fine. This is nothing short of magic to achieve such feats. Well done to everyone one involved in the making/refining process!
  • @JLneonhug
    Followed you for a while, never seen you nearly speechless lol.
  • @chrislaws4785
    I just love how excited he gets over knives, it shows he really loves what he does and has a passion for it. I'm actually jealous that he has found what he loves in life this much.
  • @stoney3694
    I bought a rada fillet knife and was expecting average performance, my uncle used his sharpness tester and it scored an average of 56 after 6 tests. Never in my mind did I think something so cheap could perform so well and hold an edge as well as it has
  • @b-radg916
    Those are CRAZY!!! I think the filament just sees them coming and says “I’m out”!? Pretty beautiful too!
  • @ryantyanna7999
    Don’t know a single thing about knives. What I do know is that I love passionate people. Great work !
  • @TheCsmith321
    I TRULY hope you understand what kind of demand there is going to be for these knives and across the entire offering. I was planning on making a few knife purchases, but will definitely be holding off for now until these are available. KEEP US POSTED!
  • @kennymanchester
    Best episode EVER! This clearly demonstrates what REALLY sharp apex looks like. Thanks so much for putting these edges on the BESS Tester. I’m sure I’ve never cut with an single digit (BESS) measured knife but now I know it’s possible thanks to you. It will be fun to try and get that sharp even if impractical in my world. I wish to try anyway! :D Beautiful knives with a wicked bite! Wow.
  • You know when you think about it knives really are just sharpened pieces of metal. However, I cant quite explain it but there is something special, almost magical about knives and edged weapons. All the work, effort, and science that goes into crafting these sharpened hunks of metal makes them special somehow. I can completely understand why swords and knives were held in such high regard throughout history. From king Arthur's Excalibur to the samurai believing the sword had connection to their soul edged weapons have transcend being just sharpened pieces of metal and become part of the human story. I completely understand why we all watch this channel and drool over these amazing and badass knives.
  • Thanks for the great video. We love that you explain the difference between cutting performance and entertainment to viewers at relevant points. Your honesty makes your videos very believable. For this reason, you have been and continue to be our great role model on YouTube and we hope that one day our little knife test channel will add as much value to viewers as your channel does. Please keep up the good work. Best regards from Germany Chief Mike
  • @nickconley4098
    5:20 appreciate that so much, there’s so many different things that make a great knife especially for kitchen work and you being upfront about that has definitely convinced me to try one out
  • @loubritton8591
    Sabol brothers seem to be very technical in their approach. I'm curious to learn the steels of construction, but when I hear Ryky say that some are at or higher than Rc 70, there's definitely going to be some high alloy, high W stuff in here! They look really well made and if you think they're sharp, well...they're sharp!
  • @JK42688
    I love how at 3:40 you say you’re bored with knives but then at 9:23 you have a big smile and start slicing paper 🤣 I stumbled across your video trying to find a good sharpener for my pocket knife 🤣 but your enthusiasm made me watch this whole video. Great conten
