Stainless Steel is a good material for a divers knife. It is strong, durable, and doesn’t rust in salt water. A new brand of stainless steel has been developed using proprietary finishing techniques. It meets all requirements for diving knives. Blades are durable and strong, and can keep an edge for a very long time.

Styles

Diver knives come in different styles. Some knives are sharp and pointed while others have blunt tips. Both styles are useful for different tasks. Sharp tip knives are great for digging and prying. The blunt tip is more forgiving since you won't stab things accidentally. Tanto knives are usually made from titanium, while blunt tip knives are generally made of steel.

Stainless steel is the most commonly used metal to make dive knives. There are two major grades of stainless-steel: 420 and 304. 304-grade stainless is relatively soft and resistant to rust and corrosion, while 420-grade stainless is a little harder and prone to rust. Some knives are made from special alloys that contain nitrogen in the steel matrix.
