I've noticed the biggest difference when cutting cardboard. There is a HUGE difference between S35V and S110V, which is why I use the Spyderco Millitary exclusively for that task. Ankerson did a cut test with the same knife in S110V and cut over 6,000 feet of cardboard before HE gave up. The knife still had plenty of use left. This was not just "working sharp", but phone book paper cutting sharp. With S35V you would be lucky to get a fraction of that before it stopped cutting paper cleanly.
CRK's blade steel is on the weak end of the spectrum for knives, but that's not why people buy a CRK. You are paying for the quality, heritage, designs and tolerances that would rival what most tool and die maker's put out.
