CPM-REX 121 Lightning
I thought I share a few pictures, CPM-REX 121 steel, flat ground with a slight convex, handle is lightning carbon fibre, red fibre spacers. 10 ¾” overall with a 6” blade.
Thanks for looking
Farid

That looks like it wants to be used so badly!

Hey Farid, I hate to ask in this thread, but are there any updates on the CPM-REX 121 K2 folders?

Farid,
What are your experiences regarding Rex 121 edge retention and toughness compared to that of CPM-10V?
 
That's a cool knife, Farid old boy. It's like a superdooper mad dog. :D:thumbup:

As long as you do not expect it to hold a hair popping edge, other than that it will cut forever if you finish the edge to a high polish, CPM REX 121 is not and was never designed to be a tough steel, 10v is tougher, at the BLADE show the other week after the competition I cut 5 or 6 steel cans in half just as a demo with my REX 121 chopper, it can do it, I am not sure if anyone took pictures or a video, I sure would like to see it myself, sweet corn and green beans just going everywhere..
I guess to answer your question, it is up to the person using the blade, final edge angle and also heat-treating.
