How do you know how hard they are? Your photos of the edges over in the
binaries group show all the signs of too-soft steel. If they were really RC 59 I'd think they'd be more likely to chip the edge

If you're relying on what Buck Bros told you about the hardness, well. .

has a website. You are saying stuff without reading the rest of the thread

Uh wrong. I've been following the thread with some interest, after I saw
the pictures you posted.
