Carbon steel will rust but it will hold it's edge longer and will sharpen quicker than most s/s. Through our light duty daily chores like cutting errant strings, cutting the tape on a card board box at the office , cutting up fire wood (just joking) , etc you probably won't notice much of a difference. For semi hard use high grade s/s can be even better than carbon steel. If you want a s/s blade i would look into knives with these steels : aus 8 , 154c (same as "ats 34"), or my personal favorite cpm s30v. These sharpen relatively easily and hold an edge for a good long time. Plus they won't rust nearly as easily as carbon steel. These steels are however more costly. For what it's worth it is my opinion that lone wolf makes the perfect folding knife in the form of their tacticle t1 and t2 ranger (both made of cpm s30v). The t1 is perfect for every day carry and the t2 is a little larger which is spot on as a hunting folder. I could not ask more from a folding knife. They are simply superior to any other production knife out there (trust me , i have owned plenty). Field and stream magazine also holds them in high regard as they were mentioned in two separate issues as the best of the best.
Stainless steel 18/10 is a high-quality material for kitchenware due to its durability, resistance to corrosion, and ease of cleaning. It contains 18 chromium and 10 nickel, making it more resistant to rust and staining compared to other types of stainless steel. Additionally, 18/10 stainless steel is less likely to react with acidic foods, preserving the flavor of your dishes.
The different types of stainless steel cookware available in the market include 18/10 stainless steel, 18/8 stainless steel, and 18/0 stainless steel. These numbers refer to the percentages of chromium and nickel in the stainless steel, which affect the cookware's durability and resistance to corrosion.
No; steel is an iron-carbon alloy. Stainless steel is an alloy of steel with chromium added. Stainless steel is usually 13-25% chromium (by weight).
18-8 stainless steel is commonly known as Grade 304 stainless steel.
Yes, stainless steel does react with vinegar. When vinegar comes into contact with stainless steel, it can cause a chemical reaction that can lead to the release of metal ions and discoloration of the stainless steel surface.
galvanised steel is a lot more safer....... if u go by the book.... it is upto 10 times stronger than stainless steel in aluminum
Yep, you can weld steel to stainless and you can weld stainless to steel. You can use steel or stainless welding rod in either case but the steel or steel welding rod will of course rust.
No, Stainless steel is not porous. Steel how ever is.

Well, the answer lies in the question; by saying 'real' stainless steel, you are implying that there are fake metals which go under the name 'stainless steel', thus the difference is that the stainless steel in refigerators is actually stainless steel, and the fake stainless steel is not...thus your question is answered...
Copper is good conductor of heat as compare to stainless steel. Hence it (Copper) can heat early as compare to stainless steel. Thats why, use of utensils having copper bottoms requires less time for cooking.
Steel and stainless steel tend to weigh around the same, however, stainless steel can sometimes be a bit lighter.
