A variety of blade materials can be used to make the blade of a knife or other simple edged hand tool or weapon, such as a sickle, hatchet, or sword. The most common blade materials are carbon steel, stainless steel, tool steel, and alloy steel. Less common materials in blades include cobalt and titanium alloys, ceramic, obsidian, and plastic.
VG-10 is a cutlery-grade stainless steel produced in Japan. The name stands for V Gold 10 ("gold" meaning quality), or sometimes V-Kin-10 (V金10号) (kin means "gold" in Japanese). Like various other blade steels , it is a stainless steel with a high carbon content, containing 1% carbon , 15% chromium , 1% molybdenum , 0.2% vanadium , and 1.5% ...
In 2009, Crucible Steel introduced an update to CPM-S30V to meet the needs of renowned knife maker Chris Reeve that they called CPM-S35VN. The addition of 0.5% Niobium, and reductions in both Carbon (from 1.45% to 1.40%) and Vanadium (from 4% to 3%) produced an alloy with 25% increase in measured Charpy V-notch toughness over S30V (Crucible claims 15-20% improvement).
Knife retailer Cold Steel markets a variety of knives that use VG-1. [5] Cold Steel claims that VG-1 has better sharpness, edge retention, point strength, shock and strength characteristics than 440C , VG-10 , or ATS 34 stainless steels, though any of those alloys may be better than VG-1 in individual categories.

Blade steel → List of blade materials — Good work, everyone. I'd sugest rewriting more of this in paragraph style, with the possibility of forming a separate "List of Blade steels". If you have print sources to back up some refs that will help too:Blade, Knives Illustrated, etc.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 14:26, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
Rockwell scale. The Rockwell scale is a hardness scale based on indentation hardness of a material. The Rockwell test measures the depth of penetration of an indenter under a large load (major load) compared to the penetration made by a preload (minor load). [1] There are different scales, denoted by a single letter, that use different loads or ...
