Speaking of the blade hardness. It is measured in Rockwell (HRC). The harder the blade, the less frequently it will need to grind, however, and the more likely that it will break (crack, crumble) with excessive loads. In addition, the higher the HRC, the more difficult it will be to sharpen the knife. The best choice will be the tool with the index of 60 HRC.
