I want to send in my holdout 2 in aus 8 for evaluation!!!

[ishiyumisan]

I bought this knife because I love the overall design & I still Do. however, This knife do Not take a sharp edge......"except power tools".. I threw everything I had at it but, even then do not take what I will call a reasonable edge. I have knife made of aus 6 which take a great edge but not my holdout in aus 8.
Seriously, comparison between aus 6 and aus 8 is damn ridiculous to say the least, it' more ridiculous that aus 6 comes on top.
I would like to send this thing to cold steel and have then evaluate the steel? or I should throw this knife under the bus and buy one made of CTS XHP Alloy? and hopefully get a different matrix, expectation!?
