Sorry I have not been around here much – work has become a bad habit, but it does pay for my knives.

AEB-L seems like a good choice – toughness and edge retention are similar to 52100, but AEB-L has MUCH better corrosion resistance. Is there a reason(s) why AEB-L was chosen instead of 3V?
Is there any chance of the "11" series (especially the 1111 & 1311) coming out in AEB-L?
Thanks!
