Information on Sandrin's "Polyhedral tungsten carbide"

[Larrin]

I wrote an article describing what Sandrin's carbide material is and what type of properties it has. https://knifesteelnerds.com/2019/11/18/sandrin-carbide-what-is-it/

Nice article Larrin!
There was a thread about these knives quite some time ago. It got a little heated!

My opinion back then was that they were a waste of carbide.
After reading your article, my opinion has not changed.

I try to stay out of those kinds of arguments. I usually stick to the material properties and let others argue over everything else.

Exactly as a real scientist does.

Thanks for another interesting read.

Don't worry, bro, I've got your back. You do the material properties and I'll do the pointless arguments, baseless accusations and random mudslinging. I know how to stay in my lane, you don't have to worry about me wandering over into fact-based material science stuff. "Do what you love, and you'll never work a day in your life."
