Ridge,
All my stuff except the big knives (Missouri and Z-sere) are o-1. I love the stuff. But for a big chopper I can't get it to work well. I'm sure other people can but I can't.
5160 is a spring steel, it does really well with impact sort of applications. It's tough but doesn't hold an edge like o-1.
It's great for big knives I think.
