aus8m

[Walt2]

Is anyone familiar with aus8m alloy or did I see a misprint?

It's not exactly a misprint, but more of a misunderstanding -- the same steel is called AUS-8 and also called 8M, and lately some advertisers have combined the two names.

Welcome to Bladeforums! You can find some good info on steels in the Knowledge Base -- click on the upper of the two Bladeforums logos at the top left corner of the screen, then on Knowledge Base, then on Knife FAQs.

Thanks Cougar, knew that I had never seen that one.

So, what is the difference between AUS-8 (or AUS-8M), and AUS-8A that Cold Steel uses?
