That is a beauty.  I have a friend  and fellow knife maker in Austria that uses N690 steel also.

Thanks Bryan Breeden, in Europe the N690 is commonly used in high quality knives.

That is what my Friend said too.  Al, said it was kind of like 440-C steel.
Is that your thoughts too or what do you compare it too?  It is a air harding steel also?

I never worked the 440C but from what I've read the N690 is similar to VG10, only the carbon is similar to 440c

N690 = C 1,08 Si 0,40 Mn 0,40 Cr 17,30 Mo 1,10 V 0,10 Co 1,50

For the user is very similar to O1, with the advantage of non-rusting, for the maker is a hard work steel.

Is a oil quenching steel.
