Spyderco Resilience beats the Military at this game because it is longer and thinner, and it beats the Endura because it is longer, and despite equal thickness blade stock, it has a broader blade height, and thus more gradual grind. I seem to recall it being a little thinner behind the edge from the factory as well, but don't quote me on that, as my Spydercos typically don't make it more than 24 hours before I regrind them to <.0015" behind the edge. The Police is longer than both, but due to the choil, the Resilience still has more cutting edge length. And if you're going to be banging it against ceramic plates, then between s30V, VG10, and 8Cr13MoV, I'll take the 8Cr all day every day because in my experience it is tougher than s30V, and easier to resharpen than both s30V and VG10. I am not sure how 8Cr and VG10 compare on toughness, but VG10 has impressed me a few times, certainly more than s30V. But 8Cr is highly underrated.
But you might also look into Laguiole, and I also vouch for Opinel.
But for the narrowness and thickness of the blade stock, the Steel Will Intrigue and Intrigue Mini were surprisingly good slicers.
