He can give you guys some 154 and sr101 from time to time , but as long as the S6's and DF's and SODs are made of the tough stuff
sr101's tough stuff, just hold an edge better. i don't think people realize how much easier it is to make a tough knife than a sharp, hard, stainless knife. I can make a 1.4" thick sharpened pry bar, but not an MPLE.
