Someone already called you out on this. Those metals suck for cooking and are a pain to sharpen on a stone.

Stop pretending like you know something when you actually don't. You can call this knife a Damascus pattern-welded knife but not a Damascus steel knife.

I don't think M390 and friends gets used much for kitchen cutlery. There's reasons, but I've forgotten.

I still regret not buy this knife months ago when it was on sale for $50. But I think $90 might still be a little to rich for me. Temping tho.

It's Japanese SG2. Nothing is gonna stand in front of this by much unless you want to go with stainless and live with lots of sharpening.
