How "good" is CS Kobun in Carbon V

[Angelus1781]

Just curious as to how this version rates? Tough?? could pry with if it if you had too? Good all around tough blade?

Not the 420 or Aus 8, but the carbon

Carbon V is a very tough steel that will flex a lot bnefore it breaks, if Cold Steel's video/DVD proof is any evidence. I've used several CS knives in Carbon V with no problem: SRK, Master Hunter, Twistmaster. It will rust if left wet though, and will take on a patina from food acids. Just dry it off after use.
