man they are screaming sharp. Probably one of the reasons it's still my favorite steel out there. I know there's "better" but this stuff is great.
Yes!

my favorite too!
I might just have to try some of that Rex stuff cause I love Cruwear and k390 and ORANGE

Definitely my experience with REX45 too

Factory edge almost crumbled on my atoma140 plate, but once resharpened couple of times, the edge crisped up. REX45 is amazing, so is Manix2LW

I have certainly less skills and experience than the two of you when it comes to steels, but incidentally REX 45 is my favorite (PE) steel too!
(Stiff competition lately by 4V (Goddard) though... could end up "beating" even REX 45 for me, not enough experience with 4 V yet to decide).

You're on the right path Gernot! 4V just so happens to be my 2nd favorite haha! During my time working down in the warehouse when I would get a lot of my use and do all those comparison threads and sharpening responses both Rex45 and 4V were kings of the all the steels I tried. I'm no longer in the warehouse these day, since around March. Something tells if I was, 15V would probably be right there as well. All I know is Rex45 is a fantastic steel that isn't too difficult to work with, even for someone that's just getting started in the world of sharpening.

I think it really speaks for those steels when both a guy who knows a lot more about sharpening and steels than I do (= you

) and me from just my totally unscientific, but coming from a lot of knife use "gut feeling" finds them to be awesome!

Finding knives you forget about has to be a great feeling, it's like a whole new knife again!

Back to work tonight. I'll be outside and it's steamy hot with storms forecast, so MagnaCut Native it is.
