I’m good in terms of materials, heat treat, and shipping. I will need the surface grinding, but am exploring a couple leads on a that.
I’ll grind coupons for anyone who needs it.

All pieces sent to me should be ready to test charpy samples.I’ll ask one of “my” makers for a piece of Ultrafort (Maraging steel) and for a piece of Vanadis 4 extra, Larrin . I’ve asked if he can heat treat both. If he don’t, can I send those pieces anyway? I hope the guy still have them laying around. Can’t wait for this results! And putting a Maraging steel into the mix will be interesting to see!

JTknives I have .125 15N20 if you want I can just include it in my batch. Or I can send you a chunk to process.

It could be interesting. But you are correct, it would give the toughness of laminated white steel, not white steel itself. It would provide very little information about the toughness of White steel.if you would like some laminated steel with Hitachi white core, I could offer some up.
But I think it's kind of a specialty steel, meaning the lamination provides benefits but I don't that I would consider Hitachi white in a toughness conversation.
And also the heat treat would be different, straight water quench, flash temper, no cryo.
Anyone able to throw in some 8670. I could send someone a bar, if they’re willing to heat treat it! I don’t have the facilities to heat treat to the level I would like. But I will be willing to mail someone a bar!
Sweet, thanks man. I’ve been using it a bit, but I can’t dial in a heat treat as accurately as you guys can. I’m really liking it so far, it seems to be a really tough steel.I think I have some here. It’s simple to heat treat, so I’ll process some and submit it. I’ll go for RC60/61.

Another one that would be interesting to see is 3v with nates heat treat tweeks! I’m pretty sure there is no toughness values other than the tests Nate has done for edge stability.
