I'm accustomed to cutting 17-4 H900 in the hard, and we're considering switching some parts to 465 H950. From what I read, it needs to be cut about 30% slower than 17-4. Should I cut it hard or soft? Parts are medical device components, generally palm of hand or smaller. Thanks!
 
I've cut it in the annealed state....it is NOT fun. This material eats endmills and drills. It will workharden if there is any rubbing and it turns to glass. I hated that stuff, I'd rather machine rocks.
