Jim, good test. Do you think the S35VN is a noticeable improvement over S30V, or not too different? BTW, the RC on this Mule is only 58-59, so if it holds an edge even close to M4 at 64 RC, then it must be pretty good stuff, and probably very tough at that lower hardness. Also, much easier to sharpen.

Oh it beats S30V easy and it's much easier to sharpen too. :thumbup:

S30V isn't all it's hyped up to be from my testing that I have done.
