What is the difference between Japanese AUS 8A Stainless and 440 stainless steel?
AUS 8A is a Japanese stainless steel known for its corrosion resistance and toughness, while 440 stainless steel is a high-carbon stainless steel often used in knife blades due to its hardness and wear resistance. AUS 8A is easier to sharpen but may not hold an edge as well as 440 stainless steel.
Is Aus-8 a good knife steel?
The answer is yes and no. Depends what type of knife and its designated use. In general AUS8 or AUS-8A, which is alternate name form the maker to state "annealed" product is a decent stainless steel and works best for small/medium knives used for light cutting.

Exact chemical composition and comparison with 440B and other related info in the links.
Why did aus 8 steel blade rust?
AUS-8 steel can rust if not properly maintained due to its carbon content and lack of corrosion resistance compared to other stainless steels. Factors such as exposure to moisture, salts, and acidic environments can contribute to rusting on an AUS-8 blade. Regular cleaning, drying, and oiling can help prevent rust on AUS-8 steel.
