This is my second test on this blade , I broke the tip because I wanted to see how thin I could go on a bigger blade with this new heat treat.
So I have been using 5160 for a couple of years now and never had these results with it, I can not get enough of this knife, I go out every day and baton, chop, carve, and cut cardboard and this blade keeps slicing paper and shaving hair with minimal stropping. I dont think I will use another steel, maybe 52100 for smaller blades.
I will post more testing on this blade after I take it camping!
