Tinted rows are where these two differ.

The steel difference

Sandvik 14C28N

Developed with Kershaw. Tough, rust-resistant, and about as easy to sharpen as a good steel gets — the reason it dominates the value tier.

Triple Laminated Carbon

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