Did I say that?

Hmm...

Well I was willing to trade the S60V for the ATS-34. People stopped using S60V because it wasn't that great compared to S90V or even 154cm.

I believe I read somewhere that a test with S60V vs. ATS34 and ATS34 won in edge retention. The reason behind this is that CPM purposely developed S60V as a stainless semi-tough steel. Tough as in a mid Rockwell hardness (around AUS4-ish). Because of this edge retention isn't that great. It's still decent steel compared to others but well hardened 154cm or ATS34 will beat well heat treated S60V any day.

I admit I wanted the LE model cuz it had S60V and being collector-ish I needed the S##V steels. S30V, S60V, and S90V. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />
