[QUOTE="4ked Horn, post: 90615, member: 11"] [ QUOTE ] Moly steel is much harder then stainless. [/ QUOTE ] Not to hijack the thread Kirb but how is this true? 4140 or similar metals have a certain "toughness" to them but they are not hard per se until they are heat treated. SS is much tougher in it's annealed state and as you are well aware much stringyer (?). The chip is continuous often. I yield back this thread to the gentleman from Montana. [/QUOTE]
