(Hope this is the right forum to post this)
There has been some talk over the past few months about taking 13C26 to a higher hardness than its typically run by production companies (64~65 RC VS 58? RC). I'm wondering if there is a maker here who could make a knife for me in this steel at such a hardness, or if there is someone who could heat treat an existing 13C26 Kershaw blade to a higher hardness. If anyone can point me in the right direction for such a thing it'd be appreciated. The knife need not be fancy, something like the Spyderco Mule team is all I'd want. Something bare bones simply to test the steel.
