I'm a newbie, wow! All these different kinds of steel, So anyway I was wondering why am I not able to get an edge on this schrade 4034 steel and I can get a razors edge on this $9.00 , 1045 steel . All I know so far is I like 1045 and I like 1080. 1080 on my Essee Junglas is good. I don't like 4034 or 420 a almost impossible to get a good edge on the 420 A and the 4034, ok back to cruising the forums, and learning !😜
