Re: Z MAX Steel

Edge is a beast so far. its about .015 behind the edge , too thick for many ingredients. Im going to take it thinner and see how the edge stability is.

Re: Z MAX Steel

My RC64 file is barely even scuffing this stuff. Maybe i can send a pc to get rc tested just to see where my recipe is coming out. Its very hard. Still no match for a good ceramic belt though :) I think its the tungsten forming very hard carbides (WC carbides)...so use diamond or CBN with this steel.

Re: What did you cook today?

I was just curious because we are having an oddly warm December in south Arkansas, and the leaves are all late to fall. I had heard from my Grandma living in California that there had been planes criss crossing the sky leaving oddly persistent contrails. Then I heard it from a friend in Texas. Upon...
