LC200 ? Anyone tried to work it?

[Joezilla]

Has Anyone worked with LC200 yet or know much about it?

Great steel. It gets max Rc60/61, but performs much like AEB-l. If you like AEB-l, you will like lc200.

Easy to work with. Currently waiting on a batch to come back from JT. If you do a lot of outdoors work or are around/on water a lot, it’s exceptional for its rust proof nature.

only catch is it’s pricey and there’s only a single importer in the US that I’m aware of

I have used ZFiNit from Alpha Knife Supply. It's Zapp's version of LC2000 IIRC. It's not super pricey. I would agree it works and finishes like AEB-L.

I have tested the z finit it in chef knives and hunting knives it’s a ok steel in edge holding. Very good in salt water. But not see it for sell much. I would take nitro v over it .
Peters heat treat max it out at 59rc.
