Spyderco Tasman Salt Rust Exposure

[CannabisDelux]

i beleave (dont quote me on this) that spyderco's warrenty will cover rust on blades like this. spydercos suport has been good to me (an not heard once a complain about it from a source that i deem trustworthy). I know it is a long time back now, but would be fun to see how spyderco reacts to a rusted Tasman.

pretty bad when on a blade type "h1" who's grand claim is to NEVER rust that right on the h1 emblem you do get rust!..dont know if this thing's worth the dough..

[Severator]

@tasteegold7772 - in Spyderco's defense, the tiny spots of rust that do form are easily removable.  From a practical standpoint imo, H1 delivers.

[Pimpzilla300]

Does having rust on a blade signal a deathflag for knives/tools? (besides being poisonous or something)

[Severator]

@Pimpzilla300 - I've had knives get some rust before and it's easy enough to polish off. Like anything else though, it can become a nuisance if you are constantly in a high moisture environment, or work around corrosive type substances.

[VietGnomese]

1:21 oh no! the knives have completely disintegrated

[Severator]

@VietGnomese - hahahaha! That's hilarious.

What do you expect? It's quality from China...

[Shrumins]

@Feanic It doesn't matter where a product is from, however it does matter about the quality. There are shit products in China, but that's what you will pay for for 6 bucks. Fork up over at least 20, then you'll see the difference. There are bad products EVERYWHERE, you just don't realize.

My family and I stay on Okaloosa Island several times a year! Awesome place!!!!

[MisterMinnesota]

Hey, what camera do you have?

[Severator]

@MisterMinnesota -hi, its a canon zr200

[MisterMinnesota]

@Severator Yeah, thanks I just posted it when I saw it a few posts down.

[ieatwithjesus]

should have burried it in the sand at the beach sharp side up

[urkingod]

For out door / fishing / food prep, what kind of oil do you need to use for this knife? I know all my knifes get Tuf-Glide oils on it. Does H-1 needs to be oiled up ?

[Severator]

@urkingod - H1 is corrosion resistant all by itself. It should be fine with no oil.

[greypeter]

Your camera has a really nice macro/AF what cam do you shoot with?

[Severator]

yah Im pleased with its macro, its a canon zr200

[severzero]

Okaloosa Island lol Pretty place! I live near shity daytona beach! Your beach is soo much better ugh.

[Severator]

haha I've only been to daytona once. You got some big festivals there no?

[severzero]

Well all the bikefest crap but other than that its pretty lame haha.

[OzClawhammer]

Great Camera!!!! Handled the bright light and extreme closeup like a pro.

[werrycoolnick]

please make a video of paint drying next ;)

[Severator]

hahaha Brian Eno would approve :)

[turbo311]

I like your humor. I think maybe you should have done the rust test in separate containers. I think rust from the other two affixed itself to the rougher areas of the Tasman's blade, like the "1"

[232StreetStallion]

NICE!

I just ordered a Tasman Salt (serrated)

can't wait for it to get here!

[SageSofa]

Very good video bro. I had a Salt 1 that I carried with me in the ocean swimming daily for a week down on the NC coast. Spydies rock.

[venomx4x4]

severator, AWESOME test video! i've been looking for a good knife to take sailing with me. but since i sail small racing boats that are only a few inches off the water , i am constantly soaked with salt water. do you think i could sail and leave it in my lifejacket w/out it rusting anymore than it did in this vid? btw i sail just bout everyday in summer so it'l get some pretty hard abuse.

[Severator]

The salt series was made for you my friend. Yes, it can handle your requirements :)

[Severator]

Thanks Raymaster, and good point. Actually about 12 hours in, I poured out enough water to leave some of the knives exposed and then I would flip them every few hours. They were totally out for the last 8 hours or so. I still have the Dakota knife. Looks the same. The liners rusted hard!

[MBKrPeter50]

I have a Salt 1 that spent a week in the ocean, with me and the only thing I really noticed was that the range of motion was kind of gritty, but all of that wash out in the sink. The blade showed no signs of rust, except for the 1. Spyderco definitely made a good salt water knife.

Great video

[Severator]

Thanks MBK! totally agree, its so maintenance free its silly!

[hathcocked]

Nice work.

[thekrazyredhead]
