Frequently Asked Questions
What is 7CR steel and how does it compare to SUS440C?
7CR is a mid-range stainless steel that is softer than SUS440C (55-57 HRC vs 58-60 HRC). It is easier to sharpen but will need sharpening more frequently. For the price, it is a practical everyday steel.
Can I pair the Ash Black cutter with the Ash Black thinner?
Yes. Mina sells both pieces individually and as the Black Diamond kit, so you can buy them separately or together as a matched set.
