10Cr15CoMoV and VG10 are closely related stainless steels, often seen as equivalents. 10Cr15CoMoV, also known as 10Cr15CoMoV, is a Chinese-made steel with a composition and performance that closely match the Japanese VG10. Both offer similar levels of hardness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. The main differences lie in their origin and cost—10Cr15CoMoV is typically more affordable while delivering comparable performance. However, achieving the best results with either steel depends heavily on proper heat treatment.

Handle is made with epoxy for longevity of use.

I would use this knife for meat slicing or large and hard vege&fruit cutting due to this shorter blade height and thin profile.
