REF: Small Sebenza 31 S35VN ... but the blade "V" stamp is on all of them I think and only seen in disassemble of the Sebenza.

I haven't seen the "V" stamped on one side of the blade tang mentioned anywhere ... at all. What is the purpose, reason or meaning for the "V" stamp? Thanks !!!
 
Can anyone confirm that "S" marked blade is for S30V? Also "C" blade marking was originally S30V for Classics, but is also seen in 21's that are early.If this is correct, can it be added to history timeline? Bart

I added it to my blade steel timeline. I also added a pic showing the differences in the shape of the "V" distinguishing RC.
