Worst 3 Steels - Never Buy!

[shinyedges]

20k in knives and an unbelievable knowledge of steels along with being Chuck Norris?



Yeah right. This thread was doomed from inception.

The most glorious moment of my HS years was scoring four touchdowns in a single game while playing for the Polk High School Panthers in the 1966 city championship game versus Andrew Johnson High School. Including the game-winning touchdown in the final seconds against my old nemesis, "Spare Tire" Dixon.

I played traveling team hockey and we took 4th in state(Illinois). Then the guys that I played with went on to win the National Championship at the Jr College level.

I grind up cast iron and mix it with carbon and titanium then forge all my blades with cardboard sheaths.

Back on topic:
420hc and 440a work great in the knives I have
I would recommend these steels

You, on the other hand, went on to win the All-Valley Karate Championship.

If you are buying a knife from a reputable manufacture / maker , I don't think you have to worry about too much about have them using cast iron or any truly wretched steel . Still , it's good to be aware of the performance and best use of a given steel for your intended purpose . The thread has stimulated discussion about the different steel types , which is good . Personal attacks , maybe not so wonderful .

This thread made me laugh real hard a few times. Like 3 times.

I'd love to get a new 110 through the Custom Shop at Buck with an S30V blade and giraffe bone handles. Soon. Very soon.

Ordered a plane Jane 110 and a 112 in 5160, because why not.

Absolutely! Whatever you like.

See, now you are all falling back in to personal attacks. All of you refuse to stick to the initial premise.

If an ADMIN shut this thread, it would not bother me in the least.

I'd prefer a thread move, rather than a thread closure.

I was in HS taking a Spanish Final Exam, and the biggest guy in the scholl threatened to beat the crap out of me if I did not hand him my exam. I told him, that neither are happening.

When we got out of the class he took his best two or three shots. Then I let him have it. At the time I was one of the smallest guys in the HS.

you should have carried a tennis racquet.

thought this was a steel thread, now prac tac thread?
