sawgrass i replied in a PM about price
the only other thing you asked about was the RC hardness,, it passed the brass rod flex test so its in the sweet spot and i assume around 58.
but the RC value is kind of a misleading value when your talking about knives. for instance no matter the hardness if the knife passes the brass rod flex test its good if its RC 65 or whatever number does that make sense?
i do not want to get in to a debate about the HT just for the record
thanks for all the responses
