Tinted rows are where these two differ.

The steel difference

Triple Laminated Carbon

Scandinavian construction: a hard carbon core between softer stainless outers. Very easy to sharpen, and the core can still stain.

Triple Laminated Stainless

The all-stainless version of the same idea — what Helle uses when the knife will see salt water.
