Knife Edge Wear Discussion-Glassy VS Toothy Edges! S60V Blade Steel

Published: 6 months ago

Disclaimer- in the video, I state that Maxamet is a bearing steel (no idea why I said that since I know what it is) when it’s actually a high-speed tool steel for rollers/cutters etc in machinery. I was saying Maxamet, but thinking 52100. Also- as you can see in the video- the edge started losing it’s bite and glassing out from taking it too high on the stones. This video shows that in between where it doesn’t quite know whether to be toothy or glassy! We will try a very low stone next- most likely a 325DMT finish and that’s it. This is not an all-encompassing opinion on S60V. This is my thoughts from using it so far for a month. We will continue trying different tactics! Thank you so much for watching!
