This happened quite quickly. I'd like to see this Mule get a release sometime late this year, or early next, if all works out.

That would be really cool.

I've done extensive testing on the production shard model in this steel. When I have time I will try to post results of all tests in my thread in general discussion.

I’m in for a mule. I love AEB-L so this would be a great addition. If this performs anything like AEB-L then it should be easy to get sharp. For me the AEB-L mule is the second easiest to get scary sharp following only VG-XEOS. Would love to compare this steel with the other two steels.

We're experimenting with heat treat on sample pieces to get the best results.
