IS CPM 15V BRITTLE?!

  • This is a Special Heat Treated I did in my shop after lots of research and testing.
    The Hardness testing was done third party by Lisin Metallurgical Services.
    Geometry is everything at the edge of the day.
    Durability and Cutting Ability are an inverse relationship. No free lunch. I can make the knife the same Geometry as most production pocket knives and still pound 16d nails. Yet why leave so much Performance on the table? Just go thinner and don't use like a dummy. Thin Geometry is what cuts and with that kind of cutting Geometry with this kind of Stability on a knife this hard with this much carbide it should cut like a boss.

    This is an awesome demonstration of how with the right geometry you can really stretch the capabilities of a steel.

    I may venture into super steel with knifes one day, maybe start with S30v, right now I am just a one knife man, it ain't much, but it is to me! Just a regular ole casexx!

    Nicely done. What are the weaknesses of this heat treat?

    • @FearNoSteel
      @FearNoSteel  5 лет назад +3

      None? I think you mean weaknesses of the steel itself, it's difficult to grind when this hard. Can be difficult to sharpen without gear and techniques and it won't pry bar or make a good axe.

    • @8thsinner
      @8thsinner 5 лет назад +1

      Big Brown Bear yes I mean that obvieusly.
      I would assume this to be very weak in lateral strength wieh no flexibility.

    • @FearNoSteel
      @FearNoSteel  5 лет назад +2

      I'm sure it could, I think what I've learned is that the limit seems to be 0.020 bte and 20dps for most steels with good HT. There are a few steels able to go down to 0.015" and 18dps but are not as wear resistance or corrosion resistant. However, I predict with this same testthat m390 would be more likely to chip. High Chromium combined with High carbon is detrimental to stability.

    Between 3v and 15v which is tougher and which stays sharper for longtime?

    • @underskillednunderpaid
      @underskillednunderpaid Год назад +2

      3v is significantly more tough, like by a lot.
      15v has infinitely higher edge retention and wear resistance.
      They are like the polar opposites of each other, with that being said I am not discounting edge retention of 3v, or toughness of 15v I'm just pointing out key difference between them.

    • @JC_1095
      @JC_1095 Год назад

  • @pmHondaSzybszaNizWyglada
    @pmHondaSzybszaNizWyglada Год назад

    0.02"mm bte, angle of sharpening 20° per side🙂 what could happen with 0.01" bte and angle 15° per side😉 the key is "know how" to prepare geometry for such a test😊

    Take a page out of judge dredd and yell out "I AM THE LAWW!!!" when foolish questions or statements come up about brittleness or durability. How did the heat treat hold up at specific geometry on the rod of truth is more valid sets of questions.
