I'm assuming that VG-10 is a relatively new steel, because there I haven't seen very many production knives with this steel, and I have seen absolutely NO custom knives with this steel. Does anyone know of any customs with this steel? I'm not looking to buy, I'm jsut curious.

I haven't heard of any custom makers using it. It is a Japanese alloy. I believe both Spyderco and Fallkniven use Japanese contractors for their VG-10 blades.
 
Jefroman,
Its been out at least 8+ years that I know about. It came from the Japan Horticulture trade, where a Very fine edge and stainless qualities were sought. I have all the current Fallkniven and Spyderco knives in that steel, and I think it surpasses ATS-34 quite abit.
http://www.fallknivenknives.com used to have some history facts, I'm not sure if they still do or not, but if the whole Swedesh army likes it ,it can't be to bad!! ...Ironhorse...
