What type of steel is this knife?

Sorry I don't know but for the price just to mess around with it has held up strong and I believe it is a good small knife

440 Stainless....It's printed right on the blade, if you wondered where I got my information. Hope this helps. Duce

I believe it is stainless, the knife is quite heavy for it's small package.

No this blade does not have steel type marked, but if you bought the standard bead blasted with black g-10 handles then the steel type is Sandvik 14C28N.

Hi Andrea, yes, it is a carbon steel blade. In fact, here is some more information about it. I hope this helps!http://www.excaliburcutlery.com/fromm-straight-razorCheers!Cathy

I believe the steel is from japan an the knife is manufactured in sweden. It is a solid knife. Similar to spyderco who commission steel from japan, like everything there are different qualities no matter where it might, or might not come from.

Stainless steel with the word 'Kershaw' stamped into the metal. It's a nice knife. :)

Has 0.65% carbon. This is a low quality steel, more comparable to 420. But it is a really nice knife. Holds the edge well. My input. Japanese steel....

The whole knife is black. The image is not the correct knife, but is the plain steel blade version.

Mine says 4138 SS on the blade, which I assume means it is stainless steel. Mine is easy to sharpen on a stone though, and holds a pretty sharp edge. Great utility knife, I have even skinned a few rabbits and squirrels it.

There is no indication on the knife or case where it was made. Sorry I couldn't help.

Steel, but I wouldn't advise buying this. With hardly a few weeks of use the blade became dull.

It is a hard plastic sheath, known as kydex. Hope this helps, also before you buy, check out the Cold steel SRK. Better knife in my opinion. Good luck

I don't recall, but there is an excellent Youtube video review on this knife. I am sure they mention it in there.

I'd heard it was 1045 carbon steel, but with the mirror finish and CHINA imprint along with the low price, I'm guessing there's a chance its just stainless steel. Although the blade is very thick, so I'd imagine its still fairly durable.

The knives that I bought come from Korea r Japan and they are not made of any kind of steel. They are purely ceramic and they cut very well and don't need any sharpening.

I bought this a month or so ago. The only stamp on the blade is "China", and there was nothing on the package stating what it is. I'm going to make a guess and say either stainless or spring steel. It keeps an edge pretty good & feels nice in your hand.

Sorry. I have no idea. All I can tell you is it is the nicest knife I've ever seen or owned. Love it.
