If you go to a restaurant and you get served something that tastes good, you don't ever want to know what's in it, lol?why is everyone so interested in knowing what steel their knives are made out of? I frankly find it unimportant considering heat treat makes such a huge difference. If I were a knife maker I would be interested in knowing what properties a knife has but in the case of buying one... its cool to know but frankly in my opinion I either like the knife or not and judging a knife as a bad one or a good one based solemnly on the steel is not my cup of tea. No pun intended, rather looking for a good answer.

Let me translate: If you want to have this again, either come by and hope I'll give you some more or go home and try reinventing the wheel.When I moved to the South I was told, if it tastes good, don't ask. And it's very true...

Swedish Steel to me is marketing hype, means nothing. Same with Sheffield Steel and Soligen Steel.

many AEB-L knives from Japanese makers don't impress.
Kinda like the Nenox steel everyone speculates its VG10 no one knows FO SHO.
I thought the commonly held belief was that it is VG-1 on the G-series. Gator's less than glowing review says it's VG-1 on the S series too mind. As you say noone knows for sure :biggrin:
Haha. And what's wrong with that?Actually it translated as opossum.
