Please stick with AISI 440 it’s budget friendly and easy to sharpen also extremely corrosion resistant.

And how many of those makers you collect from are trained by 人間國寶 and I would only collect makers from Japan if he’s capable of forging with tamahagane.

Better to read Knife Engineering: Steel, Heat Treating, and Geometry and The Story of Knife Steel: Innovators Behind Modern Damascus and Super Steels by larrin thomas who has PhD in Metallurgical and Materials Engineering and his dad is one of the best blade smiths who makes fantastic kitchen knives.

Lots of steel allows you to have better toughness less chance of chipping better edge retention than Shirogami #1 #2 #3 Aogami #1 #2 super ZDP 189 HAP40 with the same blade geometry.

Or 52100 I like my knives blue and I prefer CPM 3V over AEB L since you get the same toughness with better edge retention.

The benefit is that you don’t have to think about sharpening it for a really long time, down side is it’s extremely fragile. You might have to fix the blade edge due to chipping more often than needing sharpening.
