Rats and Dogs are obviously not on the same learning and interest level as us hogs.

So backdoor pizza is still working magic? :cool: ;) I might have to get the name of this place from you.

Relatively few cutlery steels have Copper in them. The only one I can think of off the top of my head is ATS-55. I find that very interesting!!!

Thanks for doing this Cobalt! :thumbup: Now we have some cold, hard evidence to give the naysayers when they say that Bussekin are using basic, off-the-shelf steels. No! Busse is Magic... ;)

Just kidding. lol :D But this is GREAT information to have! Thank you!!! :thumbup:

Thanks. You must work late?
 
no problem. It really did not matter much to me as I am an INFI guy first, but I did it because I know people have been wondering. It costs a bit of money to have the test done, but I get a break on the cost because I walk in the back door, lol.
 
Thank you for an informative post, Cobalt!

This of course confirms my suspicion, that my Dogfather LE is useless.
Now to find a way to dispose of it...

Nah, just a long day. As you mentioned in the other thread, that is not an insignificant amount of copper! Thanks again for doing this for the community Cobalt! :thumbup:

No problem.
I did it for you guys. We all know how well it performs, it is just nice to know what the steel really is.
 
no problem. SR77 is basically S7, no changes there. Which is cool as there is no guesswork.

However, SR101 is different but not by a huge margin
 
Could it be that the extra copper:
- comes from copper wire you cut with the knife ?
- the coating on the blade ?
- the compound you use to clean your knife ?

I was wondering the same thing. Seems like copper could come from a number of places.

So this was originally a satin LE. It was then blued(blueing has no copper that I know of). I then soaked it in vinegar and wiped it with paper towels. Not sure where that much copper would show up.
 
Just curious, what would be the significance of copper in a knife steel composition? Never heard of it... or is that what it strange about it?
