S30V vs. BG-42...What do you Think?

As the recent new owner of a Large Classic Sebenza with S30V, I just started wondering what you more experienced owners of Sebbies think about the switch to S30V. I think is it an Awesome steel from what I have seen so far, and I know that Mr. Reeve was instrumental in the development of this steel. But already the Sebenza Bug has bitten hard and I am considering trying to search out and purchase one with the BG-42 steel. How does BG-42 compare in terms of Edge-Holding and other pertinent qualities? Or is S30V hands down that much better? I am sure everyone has differing opinions on this, and I would greatly appreciate any and all insight. Sebenzas Rule!

That's what I been trying to tell ya!



Oh yeah, both steels are good. I favor the S30V myself.
 
There have been a fair amount of threads on this topic. Try doing a search, and I'm sure you'll find plenty of reading material.



For what it's worth, I like 'em both.
