guvnorWhelp, I've read through a good bit of Jay Fisher's website now and I'm ready to confess to my sin of spreading FUD about 440C. To be fair I've only been exposed to what I now guess to be badly heat treated 440C.
It seems like the wives tales have won though, as there don't seem to be many quality production knives that I can find in 440C apart from dive knives and I really don't use a knife often enough to justify a custom job.
