Metals. Renowned globally for its ability to produce exceptionally robust
knives, this material offers superior heat and corrosion resistance compared
to 154CM. While it boasts excellent wear resistance and toughness, it is
difficult to process and unsuitable for mass production; combined with the
high cost of the material itself, it has become a staple among custom knife
makers and is synonymous with high-end knife materials.
