Stainless Steel Knives<\/strong><\/h4>\nYou can compare the chemical combination of stainless steel as a green material. Because it is nearly 100% recyclable & neutral action for environment & longevity. The best part of this knife is aesthetically appealing and extremely level hygienic. Easy maintenance with durable effort due to high rust resistance capability. That is why you will find stainless not only for the knives but also for our every day using utensils.<\/p>\n

You can find five-category stainless steel by differentiating the elements adding percentages. While it comes at the time of making a stainless steel knife, three types are available.<\/p>\n
\n- The 400 Series knives.<\/li>\n
- The AUS Series Knives.<\/li>\n
- SXXV Series Knives.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
A new person to use a knife will never understand the difference between the best quality stainless steel. But it is essential to realize the basic difference between the several knives. Here you will find a minimum of 10.5% chromium content. It can be up to 12% to increase the strength quality of the knife.<\/p>\n
Austenitic S300 series – In this stainless steel series, you will find the below combination of materials to make the stainless steel knife.<\/p>\n
\n- 015 to 0.10% carbon<\/li>\n
- 16 to 21% chromium<\/li>\n
- 6 to 26% nickel<\/li>\n
- 0 to 7% molybdenum<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Nickel helps to improve rust resistance and makes it more ductile. Molybdenum further increases the resistance to rust in an acid medium. Here the significant common grades are 304\/304L & 316\/316L.<\/p>\n
Austen – Ferritics series – Though it’s a cost-effective series among all types of stainless steel but highly speculative due to low nickel. Comes with excellent quality and the combination of –<\/p>\n
\n- 02% carbon<\/li>\n
- 0 to 4% molybdenum<\/li>\n
- 1 to 7% nickel<\/li>\n
- 21 to 26% chromium<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Non-Stainless Steel Knives<\/strong><\/h4>\nHigh carbon contains steel that is considered non-stainless steel. But there you will never find a drop of chromium. That’s why there will be a low capability of rust resistance. On the other hand, hardness & strength will take less time & energy to make it sharper within a limited time. Over the years, it has become the choice of household tool.<\/p>\n
Carbon steel contains Iron with .55% carbon with other elements. Apply coating to be tarnish. And the most vulnerable side of non-stainless steel is rust. So you need to find out the coating added to non-stainless steel knives. But it can reach nearly 3.4%, which is technically very difficult to maintain. To obtain an expensive & extraordinary combination, you can apply this percentage. But the regular high carbon steel range starts from .55 to 1%.<\/p>\n

If you search for the best popular carbon steel series blade or knife, you can choose from the 10XX series. 1095 is also popular for its high carbonate combination. 1055, 1060, 1070, and 1080 are a low carbon steel knife group. You may have a question about carbon steel. Why do people like to buy this carbon steel knife? Out of the box, this group of knives’ sharpness stays longer & easy to maintain the sharpness. So you can enjoy instant sharpness service on your own, which is not easy at the time of stainless steel sharpness. But carbon steel cannot keep this sharpness for a long time due to less rust resistance.<\/p>\n
Difference Between Stainless Vs. Non-Stainless Steel Knife<\/strong><\/h2>\nTo differ between carbon steel & stainless steel is quite complex. Historically to refer to non-stainless steel, we use the phrase “high carbon steel”. In this modern age, stainless steel can acquire the same carbon content as the stainless steel content. Even both types of knives are highly demandable to the chef because of the split beneficial aspects.<\/p>\n
