Name the new CPM steel

[ykspydiefan]

I scrolled through the pages and found these suggestions.

Larrinite
Steel-O
Cut-O
Mastiffwear

I thought it would be fun to have the "better names" on one page. I am not a fan of MagnaCut. If I had to vote I would choose Larrinite. But, it is not a vote, just a page for "better names." Sorry, if I missed any other names, it was a quick scroll.

My better name is, CPM-NLS21. CPM-Next Level Steel 2021

Steel names have to be cool so they sell.

Maxamet sounds like a gladiator.

So how about

Yes:

The name of the steel has not made it all the way through the trademark process so it has not been officially announced as of yet. There is an old trademark of the same name that has been "cancelled" meaning it is no longer trademarked. Any other uses of the name are not trademarked. Of course in our case it will have CPM in front of it so there is unlikely to be any confusion with unrelated products. The name we chose is a nod to steels produced by the defunct steel company VASCO which developed steels that have become what we now know as CPM-3V, CPM-CruWear, CPM-1V, and M4. They were a very influential steel company up until the 1960s or 1970s. We have a retro ad to fit the theme. Nobody on this forum will miss the announcement, I promise.
