Crucible powdered metallurgy. It's the non stainless performance that inspired magncut.

Thank you Mr. Bites. I struggle to figure out acronyms. I am old and can't keep up with the latest jargon. :?

the leather worker used about 80% of the last knife i made him in O1 and he didnt have any issues with rust so thats why i planned on M4. i hear magnacut is good stuff tho. when i use up my supply of XHP will likely check it out

I couldn't buy anything myself, but I would be very curious to hear from anyone who uses an M4 kitchen knife on how the steel performs for that purpose.
