Reviews for LionSteel M4 Black G10, MagnaCut M4-MC-GBK, Knivesandtools Exclusive, fixed knife

This knife is utterly disappointing. Heat treat is god awful. It came so soft I could roll over the edge with my fingernail. Because I liked the blade shape and handle so much i decided to resharpen it since i thought it was just a burnt edge from the factory. Boy was I in for some surprises. How I wish I returned that knife. I had to re-profile the edge 5 times before it would not just roll over. Just washing the damn thing with the ruff side of a sponge would turn a polished edge in to a course edge and it still can't hold an edge as long as my Bestech pocket knives in Sandvick 14c28n not to mention my Coldsteel Recon 1 in s35vn (it's not even close). I now have it for 8 months and am on my 8th edge and it still doesn't perform well. Since I have no way to test the hardness I will just assume that it is either too soft or the heat treat is just garbage (or most likely both). I really wish I bought the M5 in 3v or the M4 in M390. If you are contemplating on buying this stir clear of the Magnacut version.

Czekałem dlugo. I w końcu jestem posiadaczem Lionsteel M4 Magnacot Black G10. Warto było czekać. Nóż jest wręcz idealny. Dokupiłem tylko pochwę ktdex na stronie producenta i mam na prawdę kawał dobrego i bardzo drogiego żelastwa. Polecam nóż I sklep knivesandtools.com

Very good. In general they have very quality products and prices.

There is a lot of bad things to say about k&t. Their customer service is bad. Sometimes you have to wait weeks for an answer if you write to them. An it is possible that you never hear from them if you question their solutions to problems. They only have one solution to a problem, return the product. Nowadays we are not used to that kind of service. I bought the knife, but had an issue with the sheath. Because of that i had to return the whole product, even though it was only related to the sheath which could have been replaced on its own. Another thing you should be aware of is, that money are drawn immediately upon ordering, even though the product is not in stock and you as a customer might have to wait several months before you receive the product, that is not a common way of doing things in my country. I have had too many bad experiences with them, and have found other places to order knives from.

Lionsteel is quickly becoming one of my favorite manufacturers. Anything designed by Molletta is going to have killer ergonomics, you can count on that. This knife feels great in hand. I am also a big fan of Magnacut steel, so I had to jump on this K&T exclusive. If you are in the market for a fixed blade, do not overlook the M4.

The M4 lionsteel is very nice, classic knife. However this Magnacut Knivesandtools exclusive just puts its above anything else in its small/medium fixed blade class. I also have the M390 version, but feel i am gravitating more towards the Magnacut. I have noticed they have made some minor tweaks to the knife, the edge is much sharper. the handle texture has better grains also the metal protrusion at end handle is not completely rounded off on the sides. It can now be used to scrap a ferro rod. Overall Magnacut I think should be made an option many other knives. This was a good choice by Knivesandtools to ask lionsteel to try Magnacut.
