AUS 8A Stainless Steel
The naming of stainless steel is misleading because all kinds of steel in the event of unfavorable conditions and over time degrade or change color. The corrosion resistance of the steel is achieved by adding chromium and reducing the carbon content during the melting process. At the same time, it will degrade workability. Also, the stability of the knife edge is disturbed. "Material" AUS 8A "where high carbon and chromium addition allow for a compromise between strength, blade stability and corrosion resistance.
