Is there a Rockwell hardness measurement for these?

I do not know but they are far superior to your garden variety clippers. Best clippers I have ever used.

Here is an answer from the company itself: "Our tools are manufactured from 1055 carbon steel, special bar quality, and heat treated to ASME safety requirements, which is 45-60 Rockwell standard."

I don't have the equipment to measure as you have but I can tell you the performance of the tool has been terrific and accurate (after I leveled the planer table. My only complaint has been the rough finish on the tables. I scoured and ground them pretty smooth with stones and oil.

In my mind, after the research I've done, Wusthof manufactures the best quality cutlery and related items, so while I'd like to say that, yes, this steel is up to any task or steel hardness, I'm not an expert, and the question could be better answered by someone more qualified to do so. Sorry.

I can't say w/100% certainty , but as I recall, one has bent slightly on the tip from an impact with something very hard. They do sharpen up repeatedly though. However, it's been 2-3 yrs. since I've used these.

No idea what hardening process was used. These aren't "professional" quality tools, but they are adequate for the occasional users needs.

It's a shame somebody didn't answer your question, if they had I wouldn't have bought them. I know what a caliper is, how to use it and read it; it doesn't take a rocket scientist! The ones I got are .011" thick each.

I honestly can't say for sure, just used the ones that were already in gun. I am 80% confident they are 6-32, used to be a machinist so that's a pretty good guess.

I can't answer this precisely in terms to the nearest decimal place, but I can say that they work fine for my semi-pro woodworking needs. If you are a machinist working with tight tolerance, buy a better set. For the average buyer looking at them, it's probably all you need. Hope this helps.

Depends on the tips you put on them. Rubber tips are softer than carbide points

I would think so since on the Knoop hardness scale glass&ceramic is 400-550, porcelain floor tile is 500-650, and granite is 550-650, tungsten carbide is 2000 and diamond 7000. diamondsure.com/materials.shtml Hope this helps. Charlie

I can't say for certain. Any made in markings are not visible once installed. They do feel substantial (not cheap). I've purchased more since my initial installation/review - for the price I'm quite pleased.

Yes, it is. Rockwell hardness 55. Good light-medium cutter. I wouldn't use it on hard targets like green bamboo though

There's no markings indicating an exact grit. Its between medium to fine leaning closer to fine though based on comparisons to honers I've used in the past
