Following the subject in the thread below on M16's, I've been netting and searching.
It appears there a more than a few people disappointed with AUS6, but it seems that its primarily on CRKT knives. According to CRKT's steel specs, AUS6M has a hardness of 55-57RC, whereas according to Spyderco's info it is 58-60. Does this explain the different degrees of satisfaction.
I'm still waiting for my Spydercards (Damn Easter, they should have been here on Wed or Th, NOW I have to wait till next Tuesday
), and now I'm worrying about the AUS6 blades in them. Admittedly, they are more of a novelty item, but I hope they perform better than the AUS6M CRKT's appear to.
I'm also waiting even more impatiently for my Spydie Wegner in the same parcel, and I haven't even been able to find one to play with locally, I just decided it was the best choice based on info in these great forums. Anyone know of some great land in Florida for sale??
Frustrated, Stuart Dunbar
