Debate at work: Carbide vs HSS for punch dies
So last week, I was fixing a worn-out die and got into it with a coworker. He says carbide is the only way to go for long runs. I mean, yeah it's tough, but high-speed steel is simpler to grind and way cheaper. Maybe it's just me, but I think HSS works fine for smaller batches. What do you guys think?

Did the hardness test extend to your coworker's head?
