AUS-8 Stainless steel

AUS-8 is a Japanese stainless steel known for its balanced properties, making it a popular choice for kitchen knives. With approximately 0.70-0.75% carbon content, it offers good hardness and edge retention. The addition of 13.00-14.50% chromium provides excellent corrosion resistance, essential for kitchen environments. AUS-8 also contains molybdenum and vanadium, enhancing its toughness and wear resistance. This composition results in knives that are durable, maintain a sharp edge, and are relatively easy to sharpen, making them suitable for both professional chefs and home cooks.
