Jim,
Great test! Thanks for doing it.:thumbup:
What was the engle to sharpen the blade to? Was it 15?
It has definitely kept the edge just fine.

That's 15 degress per side or 30 degrees total. :)

All the knives in this series were reprofiled to that edge.
 
This is one sharp edge!
How do you do it?
This is what I do

BTW CPM s35vn steel was easier to sharpen than s30v.
Keeps the edge great.

How do you compare it to m4?

Yes S35VN is very easy to sharpen, M4 is a little harder, but easier than S30V and Duratech 20CV is very tough, but takes a great edge.
 
Thanks, Jim.
From your tests seems all the blades kept the edge just fine.
Perhaps you need to do another run with at least twice as many cuts :)

Thank you for doing the tests again!:):thumbup:

I am going to test them on wood next and see what happens. :thumbup:
 
Oh, is it true? :) This is GREAT!
With some heavy battoning, I guess...to make the guys who sent you the testers Happyyyyyy :D

No battoning. ROFL :D

Cutting wood, we will see how the edges hold up to that next.

Wood cutting was no issue with my Mule MT06. Comparison- what makes this interesting!
Looking forward to your test.:thumbup:
