Very few stainless steel have the toughness of carbon steels. Even the toughest stainless steel (stuff like INFI and Elmax) only have toughness equivalent to a moderate toughness carbon steel, they just require a lot less maintenance from corrosion resistance.
INFI is not a stainless steel and is considered by many to be one of the more tough steels out there. Not even comparable to elmax which is a stainless steel. I think you meant something else.
