Beautifull knife. So it combine cutting power of 52100 with resistance to corrosion of stainless steel.

Sorry I'll correct you, most likely it called Suminogashi - good monosteel layered between damascus sides. SanMai is ColdSteel trademark - another outcome of their creative marketing drons. It should be called Laminated blade or Waricomi or Clay, but not SanMai - it is for ColdSteel.

Thanks, Vassili.

Well you learn something new everyday. I thought san mai was a Japanese term that Cold Steel "borrowed".
