LOL "BuckSeeVee"...
Well, to answer Jeff's "BG or not BG...that is the question"...
My first non-4xx steel 110 was a 110NS FG BG-42 Walnut w/ pins that I got from a Buck brother here that I haven't seen here for a bit (zzjake).
It has not cut a thing and sits in it's little masoleum along with my other "Top 5 110 Du Jour display".
Well, actually, I may have had the AG S30V first...but anyway, the BG-42 was my first "Custom".
I didn't want to use it...I'm wierd that way. I actually have cans of Spam that I collect that have never been opened...but that's another story.
So, I wanted to order a 110 BG-42 as a user. But, when I was about to, a little bird told me that Buck had about 50 units of 110 Stanless Damascus blanks available. So, game time decision from about 4 months ago was to go with Damascus and get the BG-42 later.
Well...by the time I had abstained enough from the auction site to order a BG-42 I heard that Buck was out. Thanks to a fellow fowl (Trax) here on the forum, I got word of the 110NS BG-42 Golden Eye that I am now using as my EDC.
Why don't I go for S30V? I have three 110 S30V AG. Two are rosewood so I use one of them. Plus I EDC a TNT (S30V). Then there's the 110BP CPM154. I also have a 298 ATS-34 that I use. And another ATS-34 AG Russell that I used to use in the kitchen.
Plus, the Custom Page doesn't have the S30V option on the BUILD IT gig.
So Jeff, if you are still reading this, I want a 110NS FG BG-42 Koa with pins as a user (I'll clean up the Golden Eye and put it away since it's odd). Why Koa? I grew up in Hawai'i and that's their wood.

Now Jeff wasn't my explanation alot easier![]()

Actually, I have been looking to see where I can find a single data point of the different steels.
You are right Jim. LOL.
Actually, I have been looking to see where I can find a single data point of the different steels.
I got that little sheet that graphs S30V against the standard steels but I want to see something that defintively compares 154CPM, S30V, 4xx H/C, BG-42, ATS-34, whatever.
So, I may be swayed to change my mind Jeff.
Jeff, your homework assignment is to find me that one source of data.![]()
