BUCK HAXBY QUESTION FROM A NOVICE

I hope this works...? I mistakenly asked a question about my new Buck Haxby in a thread for the Ontario RAT 1. I'm still learning how to use this forum. I clicked on the share symbol in the top right of my post and copied it to clipboard..?

Here goes! (But if it doesn't work or I've not shared what I'm hoping i have,...please let me know and I'll do my best to correct any mistakes)

Thankyou.

Cheers for this.

Those would be steel.

 

[Tyson Fury]

Those would be steel.

Cheers for that. But is there anything more specific that I can look up..? I'm new to all this and there appears to be different types of steel bearings..? My query is purely out of interest so that I can improve my knowledge of knives.
This Buck of mine is a fantastic knife IMO. There is nothing that I dislike about it at all.

Not sure since that is an import. Likely equivalent to 440C as that is a common bearing steel.
