14-4 CrMo steel

[Onebigbill]

I have seen mention of 14-4 CrMo steel in knife blades for such brands as Canal Street and Ka-Bar just to name two. I had a lot of difficulty in tracking this material down but I found this Material Sheet: https://www.alphaknifesupply.com/Pictures/Info/Steel/14-4-DS.pdf

Hope this helps clear up some questions out there.

it's nearly identical to 154CM in composition, both very good stainless steels.

Canal Street did a fine job with it, I really liked the edge it took.
