Re: Mohs Hardness Table
Good day Jack,
When it comes to minerals I usually use:
Manual of Mineralogy (after James D. Dana), 21st Edition, Revised (Hardcover)
Which can be bought from amazon.com cheaply. It has indepth information regarding minerals and their hardness.
Most engineers use the Vickers or Knoop tests when talking about other materials such as steel or ceramics.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
Best Regards,

MOHS Hardness Table
Good Day
Has anyone come across an indepth chart which provides the MOHS hardness number for more materials then the typical 10 materials most charts provide?
Thank You ■
