super wear resistant steels

+1. I think I might like it better than 52100. I wonder if the performance of the clad mystery carbon is different than the monosteel.

Sounds like my DT "Dark Side" Gyuto needs to travel south for a Battle Royale!

Thought I might need to sharpen the AEB-L for the first time this morning, but first pulled out the hone and stropped it on a piece of wood and a cork. The freaking thing is sharper than ever.

Is it Devin's stock edge?

It's as it came from EE--don't know the answer to that.

I doubt they resharpened the knife after they got it from Devin. Devin's edges are very toothy and aggressive. That type of edge will last you a long time if you treat it right.
