I know about swords and stainless and that twing... twing.. twing sound they make as they snap.
I would like to know your opinion on steel types for rugged outdoor, always carry with you knives. Stainless is nice, especially for long term messy jobs. But, I have found good high carbon steels almost never rust if clean and store them well.
Please write more about metal selections for blades. Thanks
I agree. If looked after there is no problem at all in using a low alloyed high carbon steel. That would also be my choice for an everydaycarry knife. However there are some really good modern martensitic stainless steels out there. I will try to remember making a post about steel types. It is an interesting topic , and one that im very interested in myself.
