User reviews

Great app

Been using this app for years now. It's a great reference for identifying and classifying different steels (not just for knives) from across the globe.

Is the app still being updated?

App is awesome but some relatively newer steels have not been added and the entries don’t seem to have been updated at all in like 4 years.

Very Helpful App

This app is very good for somebody who wants to be able to look up a kind of steel without having to go and search for. The only thing that had had was a way to compare different deals side-by-side. Considering it’s free there’s gotta be some give.

Excellent tool

If you’re a steel nerd, like to see the components of a given steel, this is for you.

A must for a blade aficionado!

I use this to learn and also judge my next purchases by. If you like blades of any kind. This is a must have app. I have collected knives for almost 50 years. I will open the app during a layover or waiting on a customer for a meeting. I learn something every time I open it up.

FAQ

What does the Knife Steel Composition Chart app do?

This app provides a comprehensive database of knife steel alloys, including over 6500 alloy names and more than 1000 compositions. It allows users to cross-reference alloy names from various international standards and proprietary names, and compare their compositions visually.

How can I compare steel compositions in the app?

The app offers an easy way to compare alloy compositions using bar graphs. You can view these comparisons in three different modes: mass percentage, molar masses, and atomic count per 1000 atoms, providing detailed insights into the differences between alloys.

Is the app free to use?

Yes, the application is available for free. There are no in-app purchases or advertisements mentioned, suggesting a completely free user experience.

What if I can't find a specific alloy or encounter a problem?

The developer encourages users to report missing alloys or any problems encountered directly via email. This provides the developer with the necessary information to improve the database and fix issues, rather than posting general feedback in reviews.

What kind of steel alloys are included?

The database includes popular, high-end, and exotic alloys commonly used in knife blades. It covers alloy names from 21 different international standards, along with proprietary names and their equivalents.
