Thanks. I have seen that on bladeforums before. I was more curious if it was based off of some pre-existing steel. Much like SR-101 is based off of 52100, and SR-77 is based off of S7.
yes it's based of the CHIPPER steel class air hardenning steels like A8, but the similarities end there. INFI has different microconstituents than the other steels and it's processing is different as well, although I do not know exactly how as that is their secret not mine <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
