The burr hanging on is more with toughness as it doesn’t want to break off. The harder something gets the less toughness it has and more brittle but also more wear resistant (this is a very basic overview). So an over tempered tip will be more “flexible” like that

Framelock I made. Elmax blade heat treated to 61 RC with cryo with black G10 and titanium frame.

Those look great! Is that snakewood on your 2?

What about the E?

For the 62 max RC that’s also without cold treatment. LN is best but dry ice can improve hardness as well.

I agree with everybody else as well. It acts like a high carbon steel when sharpening but higher edge retention and better toughness but also stainless, not amazing corrosion resistance but better than the high carbon steels.
