We've been using 12C27 for the Grasshopper for a few years. We recently established a relationship with B.U. so you will see more of their steels down the pike.
Hey Toucan,
If I were to try GCr15 in China, I'd probably try it with the Polestar.

Sal, that would be awesome. I really like the Polestar -- it seems somewhere between a Tenacious and a Raven in all the right ways. I was happy to see it get the BD1N treatment, but also sad to see it lose that funky G10. Getting it in a funky steel like GCR15 would make it that much more awesome.
I know it the past it was not a great seller, but if a version came out in an oddball steel, I bet that would get a lot of otherwise unaware people curious about the model. I know GCr15 is not a "rational" choice, and others have suggested much more sensible steels. I still think 52100 is really "fun" in a way that more sensible steels aren't.
Should a GCr15 variant come out, I'd take at least 3. One for me, my wife, and a third for safe keeping.
I know for now this is all just a possibility, but I am very excited!
