I see Leek's are fitted with a 440A blade. How does this steel stack up with AUS8, 440C, ATS34, and others?
 
Its not as good as any that you mentioned. On par with probably AUS-6 if I had to compare. If you are going to get a Leek, get the S30V model.
 
The 440A is fine if carry it more than you use it. It won't dull out that easily and its easy to sharpen up.
 
Oh, that's great news! As long as I don't use my knife, it won't get dull! :eek:









Just playing :D
