Help with Steel Type- Trailmaster Model 16JS

[Leftytrapper]

Hi all,

Fairly new to the forum so pardon me if this has been answered before.

I own a 16JS trailmaster that I bought decades ago. Can any of you tell me what type of stainless steel it is?

THANK YOU!!!

16JS is San Mai III, an early model.

16JS is AUS8A, 16JSM is the designation for the San Mai.

My bad, thanks for catching my mistake Mike.
