BG-42, not popular??

BG-42 is a stainless steel ball bearing steel. It makes a very nice knife blade.

The last time we tried to order, the price was way up (1-1/2 times S30V) and the lead time was 14 months.

Hard to plan production with those kinds of steel lead times. ZDP-189 from Hitachi also has similar lead times.
