I wanted to chime in here an agree. I have two blades with CPM-3V, a BRKT Bravo 3, the biggest chopper I've ever used!! she's a real beast, and my SURVIVE GSO6, in CPM-3V heated by PHT. Ive used the GSO more due to its size and not being 12 inches long like the Bravo 3, and I'm still amazed on how the GSO 3V sharpens with ease on the Sharpmaker, then I strop her on White BRKT compound and voila! a super steel indeed!!
I only have one knife in CPM-M4, the BM Contego, its seen its fair amount of work, I use to work for a big box home improvement store, so we were always opening cardboard boxes, cutting shrink wrap off pallets, the blade would go through the strechwrap and hit the pallet, hard sometimes! my contego has held an edge and continues to do so better than my Manix 2 XL in S30V. Ive actually had my Manix 2XL chip after going through stretch wrap and hitting the pallet. I have a BM 710 in D2, I had to use it to pry out a .40sw round that stove piped in a brand new Glock 22 FailZero lol, the blade took a small chip, but it came out on the stones!
