Does anyone here know if X50 Cr MoV 15 is the exact same thing as 4116 steel? I've been looking online and haven't been able to find an answer. Thought I would try the blade experts on this forum. Anyone know the difference between these steels?
X50CrMoV15 is the DIN naming standard. Using the W-Nr naming standard, the same steel is 1.4116.
Just plain "4116" is a steel made by Thyssen-Krupp, which is either the same or very similar to the 1.4116 standard. http://zknives.com/knives/steels/de/4116.shtml. Though since is their proprietary version it may deviate from the standard.
