I see lots of knives for sale, sometimes quoting types of steel, but I never know whether that's the best type for a hunting knife. Yours in this case are 01 Carbon steel. Is that a particularly good type or is it standard for this type of knife? What is the best steel for a hunting knife in your opinion?

Im not trying to slag off your product. Im sure they are brilliant , but im just curious. I have lots of knives but Id swap them all for one 'for life' knife, but id have to know it was made from then best metal that could easily be sharpened and keep an edge.

its all down to choice really and ovcourse ..price . ,some of the super dupa stainless steels available today are the dogs ,, but were talking big money just for the steel alone , and requires specialized heat treatement .as do some of the carbon steels , bottom line is i can heat treat 01 steel sussesfully in house ,it,is a good knife steel that has stood the test of time and keep a good edge , ..down side with carbon steels they will tarnish and even rust if a bit of care isnt taken , had that knife been made from some of the super top japaneese .stainless you could put a 2 in front of the price .but not everone can justify or aford £300plus for a blade .
