I'm looking to give or create a hotkey for Maya's harden edge. Any help would be great.

    Use Window>Settings/Prefs>Hotkey Editor.
    You can get the command name for anything via the Script Editor (click the box in the very bottom right to pop it up). Check History>Echo All Commands, then click on the menu item you want the name for.

    In this case, we might get "polySoftEdge -a 0 -ch 1 pCube1.e[1];" but we don't need the pCube1 part, the command works on any selection if we reduce it to "polySoftEdge -a 0 -ch 1" which is what you'd want to run for your hotkey. (-a 180 is for soft edges if you want that too.)

    Personally, I like to have these two in a custom marking menu because I use them a lot.
