I have made knives with 50% meteorite, and 100% is certainly doable, but the blade would not hold a very good edge. 70% should look very silver when freshly etched.

Very true! 70% bandsaw blade (or other hi-N steel) would look the same as 70% meteorite.
On the meta-meteorite side of things, the Earth is made up of recycled meteorites, i.e. the entire solar system is made up of the same original dust cloud.
But the parts of the dust cloud that have been in cold storage for 4.56 billion years (meteorites) are pretty cool.
