   Oct 19, 2021 · For example if there is a steel with toughness 10, edge retention 5 and one with toughness 1 and edge retention 6, I would assume, that the first steel is far better then the second, because you should be able to sharpen a knife with the first steel to a much more delicate edge and get a better edge retention while still remain a higher toughness.

   Nov 7, 2011 · Messages. 782. Nov 1, 2017. #5. Sandvik 14C28N is excellent steel IMO. It will keep a shaving edge longer than s30v and is easier to sharpen.
