My current primary fixed blade is an SOG Seal Pup Elite which is made of AUS 8 steel. I am just starting to learn about the quality of different steels and am aware of the quality of great steels like 154cm and S30V. However, I have never heard anything good about AUS 8. I have concluded that it may not be a very highly recommended steel, but I am not sure. Is AUS 8 the kind of quality I want in my primary fixed blade or should I begin looking at replacing my SP Elite for something with better steel?
