With all those high priced, long wait period knives out there, I just wondered if there were any reports on Randall 440B edge holding.
I am sure to OP would like to know the same.
Anyone know the Rc they heat treat to?????
For reference 440B spec is .75-.95 % carbon content and 440C is .95-1.2 % carbon content. The rest of the specs are the same.
Also for ref: 154CM is 440C with 4% less Chromium, 0.5% less Manganese and 3.5% more Molybdenum.
S30V has 0.4% more Carbon, no Manganese, 4% more Vanadium and 2% less Molybdenum than 154CM.
But OMG what a big difference in performance to the user in the field. Yeah right. They are Not miles apart.
Geometry and heat treat is often miles apart.
Just my own thoughts.
