Well, you certainly see a good mix of different steels on the market for bowie-styled blades. Considering the punishment a bowie endures......brush clearing, bone cutting, skinning, and such......it needs to not only hold an edge well, but be quite resistant to shock. I've been inpressed with the steel used in Swamp Rat's blades, as well as CS's Carbon V. Opinions? Also, what are your thoughts on using M2 in these blades?
