Wayne Hendrix states he uses “ATS 34 (154 cm) which is professionally heat treated to a Rockwell C Hardness of 58-60.

Hendrix knives are hollow ground to keep sharpening easy, and maintain a sharper edge longer. The blade themselves stay thick, and have a fully tapered tang. Guards are made of Stainless Steel.

Wayne Hendrix is known for for his hunting and fishing knives, and are worth a look, especially if you are into custom knives.
