Medium carbon stainless steels. They are used in low end factory knives where the blades are fine blanked. If the carbon was higher the blade blanking dies would wear too fast. When making cheap knives it is more important to the factory to have the dies last a long time than to use a high quality blade steel. There are better steel available but the cost is higher.
