I just did some cardboard testing with my new mora carbon clipper, and it surprised the heck out of me.

The edge lasted a good long while. I'd say just a tiny step above the 154cm on my manix 2.

So, does anyone know what they use? Hardness?
 
I´m not a 100% sure , but I think it´s , Uddeholm UHB 20C at HRC 59-60 .

Per ragweedforge its 1095 @ 58-60 for standard carbon blades and the same @ 61-62 for the laminate blades.
 
The SS line of Frosts sports Sandvik 12C27, HRC 58-59. The carbon steel Frosts uses is Uddeholm UHB 20C (eq. to AISI 1095), cold rolled and heat treated to 59-61 HRC. Other designations used: German C.D. Wälzholz-Brockhaus GmbH CK 101 and CK 95, cold rolled, HRC 60.

The laminated steel core in knives from Frosts are made of Uddeholm UHB 2140/Arne (eq. to AISI O1), HRC 60-62.

The standard SS from KJ Eriksson (no longer existing) was Sandvik 12C27M (Modified), HRC 58. After the merge they changed to plane Sandvik 12C27.

KJ's carbon steel was Uddeholm UHB 15LM (eq. to AISI 1080) and DIN CK 75/80 (eq. to AISI 1080), both steels HRC 58. Since the Co changed names, these steels have been replaced by Uddeholm UHB 20C (eq. to AISI 1095) and C.D. Wälzholz-Brockhaus GmbH CK 101 and CK 95.

The Triflex blades are made of differentially tempered Uddeholm UHB 20C (eq. to AISI 1095).
