nothing wrong with 440C, very tough and corrosion resistant as you said. and Ganzo's heat treatment for 440C is the best in the business. tougher steel than many of the powder super steels. another awesome analog steel is 14C28N. and you can fix the blade edge pretty easily while it's getting a really sharp edge. strop it after use and you don't have to sharpen it.
I don't believe ive ever gotten a bad ganzo. I know they are extremely tuff. Because they are so cheap ive used them for stuff normal people never would. Ive never had a problem with the steel. Ive heard a few years ago. The steel was not what was marked. I believe they fixed that. Besides who would lie about budget steel. Personally i like cheap knife steels. I have m390, N690,cts-xhp, S30v, S35vn, 14c28n and a few others ive sold or gave away. My favorites xhp,14c28n,440c,9cr18 those steels are cheap and do everything i need. The last 2 are better then most realize.
I have a few ganzos and they are great value knives.
Without a doubt, thanks for watching and commenting

Totally agree, thanks for watching and commenting!
I too have the bigger version of this one. I got it years ago, and have enjoyed using it. Funny how we seem to have such similar tastes in knives lol.
@@Mr_Obvious you’ve got good taste and know quality

@@richardhenry1969 I couldn’t agree more-especially about the last two
