You're right, not very scientific but pretty good testing for a mom and pop business. Nice to see that he is taking the time to improve his product through fairly rigorous testing. Many of my wood working edges are made from A2 steel. It is a joy to sharpen, and any woodworker knows that sharpening is as important as it is tedious. I also rotate my everyday carry knife between one of two zero tolerance blades made from S30V which is very similar to CPM3V but stainless--something I came to better appreciate after dumping my fishing kayak in a saltwater lagoon here in San Diego.
