Added new names for the AISI M3:1 and M3:2 steels. Added new names for AISI M10 tool steel.

Added AISI M10 Molybdenum tool steel composition. Sadly only AISI and USN standard names for it so far. Also, updated RN15X steel notes. There was incorrect reference to S35VN as having highest Nb content, which wasn't true.

Same boring thing. Magnum pistol reviews today. Few minor changes here and there as well. Hopefully this will be over soon and I can get back to more fun stuff.

Since I have switched to 270mm gyutos I have not used kumagoro gyuto almost 9 months. 2 days ago I did the usual, 1.5 hour long salad cutting session with it. It was different, that I can say for sure. The knife still feels very nice, but now 240mm blade was less convenient than the usual 270mms. I worked a little bit slower in the beginning, mainly because I was raising my elbow higher for rocking motion, felt like I did something wrong. Eventually I moved to nakiri style cutting. Well, I still can use it :) But extra 30mm does make a difference.

All the static data is now in status urls and that also opens possibility for caching it and thus increasing response speed for static data and reducing the load on my server. Still lots to implement in terms of caching, but base is there :)

Very tedious and boring work to be honest. Still, gotta do it. Knife reviews are done. Now you can access reviews in appropriate folder by typing maker name in the url as a directory... I'll have to figure out how to convert steels in steel composition graph and later nukes database.
