1. That's a lot more helpful than leaving utterly useless "I didn't find what I wanted" comments, what do you expect me to do anyway, dream up what was it you didn't find? 99% of the times people are mixing up knife brand names with steel names, I can clear that much up if anything else.
2. Supports Bookmarking of the alloys, including bookmarks export/import, listings by multiple criteria including Standards, Technologies, Makers, Countries, Recently Viewed, Bookmarks, and custom search filters.
3. Knife Steel Composition and names cross-reference database.
4. It is NOT a game, nor a steel history book, nor a knife maker catalog, nor an engineering manual.
5. Explanation of the alloying elements effects on steel is included, accessible from both, steel detail and graph views.
6. Easy composition comparison with bar graph in 3 modes: mass percentage, molar masses and atomic count per 1000 atoms.
7. Alloy names for 21 different national standards, proprietary names and their equivalents.
8. Includes popular, exotic and high-end alloys used in knife blades.
9. Over 6600 alloy names, over 1035 compositions.
10. I am one person collecting steel data and coding the app on 3 platforms.
11. You can help by reporting missing alloys, and incorrect info.
1. Really easy and quick to use and has lots of handy features like the bookmarks ,it's a simple feature but its really helpful, the descriptions are concise and useful, and above all the information the app provides is 100% accurate :-) thank you for all the hard work you've so obviously put into this :-) ive been using this for ages :-) .New to the knife world and as such learning about the crazy amount of steels out there for knife blades.
2. I'd like for there to be an explanation of what the blade steels are known for on every description if possible such as being known for edge retention or lack thereof, corrosion resistance, Rockwell Hardness, and the pros and cons of owning a knife made of said blade steel.
3. Never seen as complete a list of knife steels in one place before, and this even includes multiple brand names for a given type of steel.Thank you for this app!!!! The information in this app is exactly what I have been looking for.
4. Lastly, to human(s) behind ZviSoft - πππππππππππππππ!!As someone who got addicted to steel quite a while ago this is something In wish was around back then! I can still use it for all these new Uber alloys that keep coming out though, so that will be extremely useful to refer to next time I'm searching for a new folder, which is far too often, πIve used this to talk to knife enthusiasts and general knife owners alike.
5. Nearly all entries have: +Description, lengthy for common steels +Elemental breakdown w/ chart +Direct links to related steels/standards +Direct links to makers' sites You dork-out on blade steels... Eat your heart out.
6. I personally love it!!!Extremely useful, has a very wide range of steels and great info about each.
7. This app is my go-to reference for all things 'steel.' The descriptions are detailed yet easy to understand.
8. It has most all steels for blades of nearly any you might have, are looking for and are wanting to know more about, with cross references from other countries and Maker's.
9. This app seems to be exactly what someone like myself needs...easy to understand, no nonsense steel info.
10. I'd like to get in contact with the creator.INFO BONANZA!!! This app is a real help in analyzing various steels.
11. Some are extremely detailed, others more brief, but all I've seen so far will give you a decent general idea of what to expect from a steel.
