Then you should lower your edge angle.
The toughness of Magnacut allow you to do this.
From this article on Knife Steel Nerds :
"Edge angle had by far the strongest effect on edge retention, much stronger than other effects".

I must admit, my use case has changed a great deal since I retired. I no longer cut a lot of abrasive materials like I used to. My experience is still based on when I was working, and Magnacut came out when I was.
