Donna,
What a coinci-dinky!! I also happen to have a couple of Piorek's knives on order,
and RJ Martin's as well. Patience is a virtue, my momma always says.
However, I
do happen to be the proud owner of a JSP Credit Card Blade, which is A2, and it's also as sharp as hell!!
For me, sharp is when you slash medium power at a pair of brand spanking new blue jeans(No, not a $55 pair of Levi's 501s, but a pair of those stiff ass flea market baggy jeans that'll only set ya back $12 to $15 a pair) packed full of wet newspaper with my wife's semi-frozen chicken in the middle, and the blade goes clear through. Not halfway through, but
clear through. And then, I'll slash happily at this dummy until I'm covered with salmonella producing poultry from head to toe. Let me tell you, this disgusting exercise takes a
LOT of frustration and stress out!!
And if the knife that I'm holding in my slick,chicken-gut encrusted hand still shaves the hair off of my arm, and I mean shave, not tear or pull,
THEN I consider that knife to be "sharper than hell".
Like I said, my Hossom Millennium Black in CPM-3V is
sharper than my other knives. By how much? Well, IMHO, it's a tad sharper than my Crawford KFF, slightly sharper than my Polkowski Scorpion, a bit sharper than my Nealy Pesh Kabz in M2, and significantly sharper than my Busse Mean Street in A2, but the edge is thinner. And, it's sharper than my JSP CCB. IOW, it's the sharpest knife that I own. Don't believe me?? I'm
crazy/insane/nuts enough to send you my baby, the Hossom Millennium Black with the last piece of rag micarta on Earth, so you can shave your arm hairs to your hearts content!!
