It is an interesting insight into part of the knife buying scene though that certain steels become highly hyped and sought after, whereas virtually identical analogues often fail to gain the same popularity.

Larrin has a cool article on steel naming conventions on Patreon at the moment.
I thought about names helping steel sell. It makes my head hurt. :confused:

I've read just about all of his Knife Steel Nerds articles. If I had the extra money for Patreon, Larrin's would be the first I'd join.

Yeah, we’d like to think we’re rational beings, but any marketer would tell us we’re not at all.

I admire the level of research you’ve been doing Josh.

I think Larrin may have some interesting stuff coming up soon, which he’ll make public in due course.

Vascowear sounds like some undesirable and painful surgical procedure.

Or a sterility inducing undergarment.

After some more research on this topic it seems I singled out PD#1. There was a few other mules still for sale mid 2019 one being the CTS-B70B. That was released in 2015 so it took 4 years to sell out! Now we're into selling out within hours!? The other mules available at that time where RWL-34(2016), PMA11(2017), and of course PD#1(2017). That's a lot slower sales than I thought no wonder it went on hiatus.
