Re: HRC Database
Awesome! Thanks BBB and Albatross for sharing!
Good to see a higher number for the CPM 10V.
And that REX 45 - incredible! :eek:

Re: HRC Database
Indeed, for people that don't like high carbide steels, Rex 45 is the peak their should strive for. Amazing steel in a high polish edge.
Re: HRC Database
Any tests on the rex 45 manix 2 yet?

I had a few tested. The 10v satin PM2 was 64.5. The manix 2 rex 45 was 66.7.
Re: HRC Database
Wonder if anyone has tested the K390 Ladybug yet. I hope they are running it hard

Re: HRC Database
So I have a lockbar from a Maxamet native that lost a fight with a lawnmower. Not my knife but my coworker asked if I wanted the pieces. Wondering if anyone would want to RC test the lockbar. I'm not sure if spyderco changes the steel for different runs. I can ship it to whoever would want to do this. I don't need it back after.
Re: HRC Database
I was curious, does the hardness differentiate between the releases? Say with the REX45 Military/PM2/Para 3 from last year, compared to the knives being released this year?

Re: HRC Database
Has anyone seen HRC numbers for the Mantra 1 and Mantra 2?
I have a Mantra 2, so naturally, I’m very curious.
Also, Kurt (jcoolg19) on YouTube has done many many tests. I recall that the XHP Manix LW was tested at at or a hair above 61 hrc, but I don’t see it in the list.
Thanks.

Re: HRC Database
Laminated blades don't give accurate readings, from what I understand. They can't be tested on the flats, since the cladding is covering any testable areas. Testing the exposed core is difficult, if not impossible, due to the angles.
