With high-toughness steels like Cruwear and Z-wear, is it worth getting on a knife like the PM2? More specifically, do these steels really shine with a thin FFG grind that may not have a ton of lateral strength due to blade stock thickness? This is genuine curiosity, not showing any bias. My eyes lit up with the new PM2 in Cru/micarta, but then I thought about my uses for the PM2 and it almost seems like steel like Maxamet or S110V would be the better choices when looking at the production models. I turn to different knives if I’m doing hard cutting that may require high toughness.
Thanks for any input.
