S30v in SEKI CITY?!!!

[Humint]

I can't help but noticed, and maybe I missed the announcement, but a lot of these new models shown at the Amsterdam meet are Seki City models with S30v steel!!! Am I dreaming? If I am, please don't wake me. The thought of s30v in a Delica gives me butterflies.

 

[Kyle78]

Yes, s30v delica please!

 

[BrandoSpoke]

I hope. A lot of the VG-10 knives would suit S30V much better like the Civilian and the Delica, etc

Yes, it was mentioned at the meet that Spyderco shipped S30V to their Japanese maker for some models.

Waiting on a Delica in S30v....

 

[Lapedog]

I got no love for S30v. I honestly hope they keep using Vg10 or bump up to S35vn.

 

[WiredDutchman]

A matching Delica and Dragonfly in S30V.... I want this to happen.

While this is cool and all, I'm curious as to why, when there are so many amazing Japanese steels out there.

S30V Delica would be awesome, but have to admit I'm pretty happy with ZDP!

I would imagine it could have something to do with cost. might be cheaper to ship steel to them than it is to purchase/ship back to US
