I ...Interesting commentary on steel choices Konrad. I have found that the new generation of powder metallurgy steels, when heat treated correctly, display low burr formation at the angles we use for wood working and cutlery. As a knife user and enthusiast, I am constantly bombarded with hype and misinformation about the 'latest and greatest' wear resistant tool steels, it's quite boring. In woodworking, conclusions are quickly made and standards are established by General consensus.

I do have some beater chisels that I use for renovating and house work, but those are also carbon steel. I have not tried a V11 chisel yet, but I do not see a need to change what I am currently using.<br /><br />cheers,<br />konradKonradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03975387560456769892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293643013821611045.post-85859013019123536512014-06-26T10:27:00.595-05:002014-06-26T10:27:00.595-05:00Konrad,
