AUS-10A steel is a high-quality Japanese stainless steel, commonly used for making knives. Its typical composition is as follows:

  • Carbon (C): 0.95% - 1.05% (Increases hardness and edge retention)

  • Chromium (Cr): 13.00% - 15.00% (Enhances wear resistance and toughness)

  • Molybdenum (Mo): 0.80% (Improves strength and corrosion resistance)

  • Vanadium (V): 0.10% - 0.20% (Increases hardness and grain refinement for better sharpness)

  • Manganese (Mn): 0.50% (improves toughness, enhances hardness, and wear resistance)

  • Silicon (Si): 0.50% (Enhances strength and durability)

  • Nickel (Ni): 0.50% (enhances toughness)

  • Phosphorus (P): 0.03% (Kept low to prevent brittleness)

  • Sulfur (S): 0.03% (Minimizes impurities for better toughness)

This composition gives AUS-10A steel a great balance of hardness, edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. It's ideal for high-performance knives, providing a sharp, durable edge that's relatively easy to maintain
