If I come into the shop and order an AR, can I still get the blade in BG-42? Also, what is S30V? I know nothing about it. What is its composition, etc. and how does it compare to BG-42? Thanks.
 
Go over to the Chris Reeve forum. There were a couple or recent threads that extensively discuss S30V.
Apparently it is a steel that was developed by Crucible steel specifically for knife blades. It is supposedly tougher than BG42 and slightly more rust resistant. It is a step forward from BG42 but not a major leap.
 
Thanks, Harrydog. Hey, is your name actually "Harry"? And you're not REALLY a dog, are you? It must be tough on your keyboard!
 
Nope. My name is not Harry and I don't think I'm a dog.
Go figure.:confused:
Do you spend much time in India? I've been there a few times.
 
Yup, I go to India every year; sometimes a couple of times a year. I study hatha yoga in Pune with B.K.S. Iyengar and his family. We do lots of "down dogs" and "up dogs", but no "harrydogs". India is one of the most wonderful/horrible, happy/miserable, delightful/ depressing, beloved/hated places on the face of the earth. After I've been there for a few months, I wonder why I EVER went there in the first place. After I've been away from India for a few months, I begin to miss it and start making plans to return. A Strider AD saved my life in Varanasi, which is, without question, the most exciting city in India, if not the world.
