AUS-8
AUS-8 is a Japanese stainless steel, equivalent to 440B steel, characterized by a good balance between corrosion resistance, ease of sharpening, and edge retention. The carbon content (0.7-0.75%) affects the hardness of the steel, while chromium (13-14.5%) provides very good corrosion and abrasion resistance. Vanadium additives (up to 0.26%) improve the homogeneity of the steel's crystal structure and increase the blade's resistance to abrasion. The steel also contains molybdenum (0.1-0.3%), manganese (0.5%), silicon (0.4-1%), and nickel (0.49%). After proper heat treatment, AUS-8 steel achieves a hardness of 58-60 HRC, making it a solid material with good cutting properties and durability. The steel is widely used in mid-range knives, mainly produced in Japan and Taiwan, such as the popular Ontario RAT 1.
ABS
ABS is a plastic material used in the production of knife handles, valued for its high impact resistance, rigidity, and stability in changing thermal conditions. Thanks to these properties, it performs well during intensive use, ensuring the durability and reliability of the tool. The material does not absorb moisture, which prevents deformation and allows for a secure grip even in difficult environments. The low weight of ABS further contributes to the comfort of using the knife.
