Why do I have to do a science experiment with lemon juice to know if the knife is stainless steel or carbon steel? Why is it not imprinted on the knife itself so I can verify before purchase? I just want my new knives to not rust after one use. My old knives that I have had for 14 years have not rusted at all. I had to get new ones because water was getting inside the handles of the old ones and would take forever to dry.
Most knife blades do have the type of steel marked on them. There are exceptions, but most of the blades that don’t are not good steel.
If you want a knife that goes beyond rust “resistant” you should look at blades made from LC200N. It’s a very good steel in its own right and it just does not rust.
