(Please see page 2)
I saw this graph that says basically that cpm3v has the same edge retention of 440c and that 3v has less edge retention than 154c. That was a surprise to me. I thought 3v was a super steel (whatever that means). The graph also shows A2 to have very low edge retention , about half that of 440c. I thought A2 was much better than 440c.
Am I missing something?
