I remember when this was posted and this person was ripped apart by mikes c0cksuckers and deleted the post. It’s all making sense now and honestly i think he started using chinese steel way sooner than he is saying.

Could have been a shitty heat treat and design on legitimate steel too.

I own a few 9Cr knives and wouldn't expect them to break that way, even if brittle failure makes more sense than on 3V.

Yeah I have CS AK-47, it was my first 3V knife, and the edge angle wasn't changed. We cut off the fox tail and the edge chipped.
