I have several case stockman style pocket knifes.

What is case's "true sharp", and what is their "surgical stainless" ?

thanks
 
I seem to remember reading in their collector's club newsletter that they use 420 stainless. I'll need to go back and check so don't take my word on it.

So what is the difference between "Tru Sharp", and "Surgical Stainless"?
 
On that note I am curious if this is the same steel they use in the Bokers as well.

Thanks for the info.
Now I just have to choose between Boker and Case for the Stockman I want.
