X40CrMoV5(AFNOR) - Hot work tool steel. Working hardness 52-54HRC max. Not really suitable as a knife blade material. Decent shock resistance. Never the less, I've seen an axe made out of this alloy, tomahawks, breaching axes, couple of the large choppers and an anvil.

Manufacturing Technology - Ingot

Country - France(FR)
