A bit of random info. In Michael Christy's rex 45 video, someone commented that they rockwell tested their Para 2 rex 45 and got 66.5 hrc. This matches the number Sal mentioned a while back.
In that video he says that persons knife tested at 64 hrc.

Yes, within the video he is referring to a post by frankie_blades on Instagram. I am referring to the comment section of the you tube video, not the video.

Both. It depends on how you'll use it, what kind of edge you like, what kind of edge retention you're after, etc. I don't think you can go wrong with either.
