kitchen knife steel...154cm or 13c26

[pike3e]

What would you prefer to use? 154cm (not cpm) is about 20% more expensive than 13c26 from admiral. Any input or experiance would be appreciated.

Thanks

John

If I'm honest, I'd probably just use 440c. It's quite cheap, great corrosion resistance, and it takes a nice finish. It's no longer a "top of the line" steel, but it makes some pretty nice kitchen knives when done right

Are you looking for sharp or cheap?
