CPM-S90V is a luxury stainless steel with a very high vanadium and carbon content, which make the blade unusually have excellent retention, very resistant to abrasion and corrosion. When choosing a hard steel knife, get a diamond sharpener, as sharpening with a standard ceramic whetstone can be very labor-intensive and inefficient.
