What is AUS-10 Steel?
AUS-10 is a type of high-carbon stainless steel used to produce knives. It is considered to be a high-quality steel that offers a good balance of toughness, sharpness, and corrosion resistance. AUS-10 steel is often compared to other high-carbon stainless steels such as VG-10 and 440C, and is considered to be a step up in quality from commonly used knife steels such as 420 and 420HC. It is commonly used in the production of Japanese-style knives, such as Santoku and Gyuto knives.
