A mate told me about these saying they never need sharpening, how long before these become the next blazer, emberleaf, viper flex or harkila must have bit of kit ?

Sandrin Carbide - What is it? - Knife Steel Nerds

The cemented carbide materials used in Sandrin's knives is unique and very different from steel. What are the properties of carbide and how does it compare?

Larrin's articles on steel are excellent.
TL-DR - they are very hard, but not tough. They will require diamond stones to resharpen and could very likely corrode unless well maintained.

Won’t matter, they look good, tackle tarts will love them and they’re just about to make one in 6.5 creedmoor

As long as they come in black or coyotes brown to match the tactical chassis rifle they will sell.

A very unimpressive 30 day warranty !

They don't appear to have as much faith in their knives, as their advertising would suggest !

Give one to a newbie learning how to get the legs off, That'll sort the blade out!

Won’t matter if they put 6.5 creedmoor on the blade, it’d still sell due to all the hype ?
