Boker - 420 Steel
- Thread starter Loki
- Start date
420 stainless steel is an O.K. steel, it's probably close aus-6 in quality. I think it would be ok for a large knife that will probably see moderate use. I have a Blackjack that was maded from it sharpens up easily, and handles rust, etc...well.
Hope this helps
!!!
P.S. You might want to check out the knives made by Dale Sandburg, he makes some nicekives in that style.

Loki, are you referring to this one?:

Boker's site says 420 "Solingen steel," but it's probably the same as what they use on the Top Lock, which is made of 420 steel at a 54-55 Rc (according to Boker's catalogue). Buck acheives a higher Rockwell hardness with 420HC (58 Rc).
