I've read a half dozen books and some online and magazine literature on knife steel pros and cons, but mostly what the custom or handmade knifemaker is using. Is there a definitive guide somewhere that specifies what companies use what steel in each of their mass produced knife series? Also, hopefully there is a discussion on what differences one company's version/heat treat, etc. of a certain common steel compared to another company that uses the same steel.
Maybe there would be a discussion as to why a company chooses a certain steel over another including costs, delivery schedules, ease of working, etc. For instance what is "TruSharp" steel.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
