1085???
So, it seems that I've been under a rock for a while.
I was discussing knives with a co-worker a few minutes ago and he mention Blackhawk knives. Always wanting to be well informed, I looked them up to learn that they use a steel called 1085C and call it a tool steel.
It was hard to find references to it, and I couldn't find a source anywhere.
What is it? Is it relatively new? Is it really a tool steel? Does it have advantages to the more readily available 1080, 1084, and 1095?
I seek an education.
