037 Show Info – Larrin Thomas and MagnaCut
Show Topic: Kyle and Dan Answer Listener Questions
Overview:  There are all sorts of misconceptions when it comes to knife steel.  We covered some of the elements in steel in show 006 and went deep into heat treating on show 007 and talked to Larrin about his life in show 027.  Evaluating which knife steel is better than another is not easy with all the different manufacturers and using different evaluation methods.  One man started a quest to get all this steel information into one place and all the testing to be done in a consistent manner so the steels could be ranked.   We plan on having Larrin on the podcast more to talk about the steels that all of us knife lovers care so much about.  Hope you enjoy learning more about how the man behind the website developed this new steel!  I sure know we did!!!!
