Been trying to learn a bit more about the various steels used to make knives beyond the hype and marketing. This seemed like balanced article, but I'm not an expert on the topic. For those with the expertise, what say you? What's another article to read on the topic that summarizes the various steels? Some of the "ultra premium" steels like CPM S110V sound cool, but not clear the $ is worth it beyond bragging rights and such. But, buy once cry once as they say. Sounds like the basics will cover most people most of the time in most situations.
