H1 PE question

[johnson]

Hey everybody.
Sorry if this has been asked or discussed before.
H1 in plain edge, to what other steel is it's edge retension comparable to ?
General light everyday use, no heavy cutting tasks. VG-10 or 8CR13MOV maybe or not ?

I can't compare it to 8cr but it is less than VG-10. Still, I love PE H1. Take a look at this: https://forum.spyderco.com/viewtopic.php?t=83361

I'd say slightly less edge retention than 8cr.

In my experience I'd say H1 holds an edge slightly better then 8CR. Not as good as VG10 though.

Better perhaps or equal to AUS8 at least.

Thanks, that is very informative.

Although I don't use Aus8 for a long time I have the same feeling.

Always love your pics, bro. We need all the eye candy and light hearts we can get these days. Thanks. :)

I think I'll carry my PE Dfly Salt today.
