C-DubsMBS-26 steel. Any nuances?
I found myself needing a longer bread knife recently, and after checking some different sites, I ordered a Spyderco 10" from BladeHQ (along with a Launch 6

).
It says that it's made with MBS-26 steel. I've never heard of it before. Anyone in the know? Are there any precautions I need to be aware of?
Thanks for any advice you can offer.

C-DubsThanks for that.
With less Mo, and no Co and V, it just won't be as strong or hard as VG-10. But should be good enough to cut my English muffins adequately.

DSgrouseI have a sneaky suspicion that it will hold up a bit better. Due to the fact it has a better polished edge retention.
