Went through the database, fixed few incorrectly marked records, added descriptions for several alloys.

Maintenance release. Main highlight being a crash fix, when in the Recently Viewed list mode which seems to be popular, database update can change alloy name in the list. That'd cause a crash, which I've fixed in this release. Few minor fixes as well, such as adding missing element names and molar masses. Enjoy.

One of those experimental knives, that turned out extremely well. Wanted nessmuk, larger one at that and from Aogami 2 steel. Obviously Shinichi Watanabe was the guy to work with, and later on Dave Martell installed the handle. Kudos to both for an excellent job. IMHO the knife turned out just beautiful and its performance is just superb, I am very happy with it at least. Details in the review, follow the link.

Lots of UI improvements, or so I think. Fixed a crash which was caused by incorrect db data, reported by few users last week. Other improvements and optimizations. Selecting identical listing no longer results in database refresh, current values are always highlighted in the listing windows and so on. New feature inspired by cutlerylovers review, added alloying elements effects to the app detail and graph views and included the same info in the help file, although from what I gather based on last 3 years of published app experience, nobody reads help, even on the complex app like this...

As commenters said, knife steel apps got one more review, this time by known youtube reviewer Cutlerylover. I'm glad it was very positive :) And in the wake of new wave of the comments got one more 1star, someone pissed off because he thinks I am anti-second amendment, seriously WTF?!!! I developed and maintain desert eagle pistol FAQ for crying out lout, aside from all other things on my websites.

Version 4.17 is online. Fixed a bug when standard value from settings dialog was resulting in incorrect search results from advanced search dialog. In short, it wasn't supposed to be involved in search constraints, but it was, and now it's all good. Search away ;)

What do you know... Apple reviewed the app in 3 days. Well, app is out, with several important fixes including synchronization, missing compositions, etc.

Doug up yet another interesting source. Has bunch of names from British makers for various popular tool steels, including AISI O1, AISI D2, AISI D3, and AISI D6, well that's so far. Plus fw more standard and proprietary names for other alloys, overall about 80 new alloys in last seven days :)

I got it a while back, as a present for my friend. Had it for a few weeks to play with and do some testing. Pretty good knife, I was happy with all aspects of its performance, nice knife, but sharpening is a biatch. Other than that, no complaints. Good build quality, solid performance and the price is pretty reasonable too.
