I don't understand why Zviad Jakhua- who gives away his app for free- is not given more recognition in the knife world, but his well-maintained database/app is a treasure. One of the unsung heroes of the knife world. Not only is the appweb site amazing, but he's one of the nicest guys I've met in the virtual knife world!
I tried to get Boye of Boye knives to contribute, but I think maybe that's cobalt more than nitrogen technology. Is that in the same world as what you are doing? I also just scooped up my grail knife, a Ferrum Forge Stinger in SM-100, but again, that's not what you are interested in, right?
Regardless, I would recommend getting in touch with Zviad to share info- the guy is my hero. As far as I can tell, he has not tried to monetize his work in any way whatsoever, truly a passion project.
I'm really interested in your work! I would like to get a fillet knife for use surf fishing. Something that can't corrode. This year in Cape Cod, I was knee deep in the surf for like 15 minutes and my knife had rust within 3 hours (just an old Spyderco Rookie). Also, with fish I want to keep, I do NOT let them suffer - whether it's a trout or a blue fish I can't stand to see guys just throw fish on the beach/bank/cooler/boat deck to suffocate- so IMO a good fillet knife would have something like a glass breaker / spike to dispatch a fish intended for consumption ASAP.
Looking forward to following developments with your work. As far as I know, there aren't any good fishing knives with this feature. I use a billy club now but it'd be much easier if the knife had that built in!
 
Has there been any updates on availability of VANCRON? Would definitely be interested in playing with it.
