I have a Kershaw OCC BLUR April 08.
Is it possible that Kershaw made these in 14C28N?
Or was most everything that was standard production
made in April 08 13C26?

Thanks

Good deal. Glad to hear that.
13C26 turns out to be what I prefer for my needs.

I finally got the edge on this knife dull. Which was exceeding my expectations day after day. I have opened and closed this knife thousands of times. I took it apart twice due to a torsion bar rattle and had the wrong torsion bar the 1st time and second time everything looked good. So I buttoned it back up with the old torsion bar to see if it would give me any trouble. None, never and solid lock up every time.

I wanted to dull it so I can learn how to sharpen this steel due to the number of Kershaws I have in 13c26. Literature I have from when I purchased it in Dec 08 said 14c28n. I just noticed and was wondering.

This Blur cut a mile of cardboard and other softer material before loosing it’s edge. I was surprised. Not looking for enhanced corrosion resistance and preferring a tiny bit more carbon makes 13c26 just fine for it’s application I have for it.

Nice job on the Blur Kershaw. :thumbup:I think I’ll keep my Red, Gray, Black, Black Tanto. Never did get that Blue Blur. I wonder what the premium steel models deliver????

Thanks for the answer J. Mattson
