Rockwell Hardness Tester?

[SamaraVolk]

I'm presently researching testers. Does anyone have one they can vouch for? I would like to keep the price under $1,000. Thanks

You might want to post this question in the Blade makers forum. I'm sure quite a few makers here own a tester.

Also, try using the search function in the upper right. "Rockwell hardness tester" turned up a few threads and some brands to look at.

Grizzly brand is what I use. It cost barely within your budget.

That's the one I'm looking at. Are you satisfied with the performance?
