A2 - Knife Steel FAQ - An excellent air-hardening tool steel, it is tougher than D2 and M2, with less wear resistance . As an air-hardening steel, don't expect it to be differentially tempered. Its good toughness makes it a frequent choice for combat knives.
9X5VF - Yet another variation of the AISI A2 tool steel from Russia. Interesting part is the addition of the 0.8-1.2% Tungsten(W). It's rather trace amount if look at it in molar masses, but apparently it's there for a reason.
No. 484 - Carpenter's A2 tool steel.
