What Steel for a Bushcamp?

[bikerector]

We are having some trouble sourcing 1/8" AEB-L so we're looking at some substitution options for an upcoming order and I thought we would reach out to some people and see what you think. Pick your favorite option or favorite 2 if you can't decide.

Here are the standard specs

1/8" thick at spine
AEB-L steel hardened to 61-62
4.25" blade
4.5" handle
Black canvas micarta or g10 handle
3/4 height convex grind

Sorry guys, late on the follow-up. Near the end of the poll the standard sized AEB-L came back in stock so I forgot about this post. BUT, there seems to be an interest in 8670 so we're going to look into a small run of that super tough steel for y'all since there's interest. We'll probably do a brute or two in it as well if we make a run in 8670.

Thank you for all those that participated.

We put in a small order of 3/32" AEB-L last week for some thin-camps, along with a couple other of our smaller models like the Michigan Utility Knife and 24/7 EDC knife.
