Tidioute in 1095 or 440c?

[Kalsu]

1095 has always seemed to have more "bite" to it than stainless. I believe it to be a better cutter. But the 440c isn't too far behind, and more rust resistant. Either works for me. I have a few of the "super" steel knives too. I'm learning to hate them.

I have a few knives (five or so) that have S30v steel. I really like them but there has always been something about higher carbon steels that appealed to me. I have been bouncing back and forth between 440c and the 1095. I am as bad as my wife trying to pick out a new purse! :hopelessness: Heck maybe I should just get both?!? :thumbup:
