Tell Me your thoughts on CPM 15v

Why you guys in USA a so obsessed with high HRC hardness ? You think you'll get useful knife from this steel in 64 Hrc ?...


The reason, Natlek, I think is because at 64 and higher, you can stop worrying about silicon dioxide / quartz (sand) type materials (which are a mohs hardness of 7)

silica tends to be in many plants you might cut (esp. bamboo) even if small in percentage. It's one of the common substances to dull edges

I think that's the reason some people get obsessed with high HRC
