Hi all, wonder if anyone can tell me what steel my Ontario SP6 is. I saved the box and it is dated November 2016. Is it still 1095 or is it 1075?

I dont think they started using 1075 until a few years ago. I think it's 1095 but i can't be sure.Hi all, wonder if anyone can tell me what steel my Ontario SP6 is. I saved the box and it is dated November 2016. Is it still 1095 or is it 1075?
Well there should be no worry really about the steel. It was explained that OKC found their 1075 version was a but tougher and less prone to breakage than 1095. At the cost of maybe a little more sharpening according to the great Experted one who retired recently.
I have the same knives in both 1095 and 1075 and really can't tell the difference in the wear and abusal stuff I do to them.
