what type of metal are these knives made out of?

I suspect it's a low quality aluminum. I bought a set and one broke on the first toss. The inside of the break looked kind of like weld shale. It wasn't worth sending them back for what I paid for them. the broken one will become a spearhead or arrow tip. These are only 6" long end to end and more like a play dart for inside tossing at a cardboard box. You'll never get close enough to anything thats likely small enough to use these on for hunting purposes as far as throwing is concerned. As a one time stabbing knife, they'd pass minimum requirements but they are tiny.

They are carbon steel and must be hardened as they are tough enough to take quite a few "misses". They are quite small though - about the size of the average writing pen or pencil.

Stainless steel. I just read the other comments and I must disagree. I've never had one of these break, and I don't think they were intended for hunting. I like these knives for throwing at targets.

Steel not any fancy steel either it isn't hardened nor is it coated steel but ill tell ya I left one outside over night and it didn't rust. So they aren't so bad.

It says carbon steel on some websites descriptions. They are really good I left them out side they don't rust. If you hit a rock it chips the tips of the blades but a grinder I use does the trick to resharpen.

I believe steel. I purchased the mill stan irons just because of the reviews. I believe that these are ok, was disappointed with Mill Stan's customer's sevice. He sent me a different size , then challenged my skill level ........very arrogant?

Chrome steel I believe. I bought these for my father in law and he loves them.

Not sure where they are made. I would guess they are some kind of steel. They are quite heavy.

They are made in Taiwan with high carbon German steel. They are great knives. I've had mine for about 2 years and I wouldn't trade them for any other knives.

they are forged stainless. I would not recommend them unless they have changed. I got mine last year for Christmas. I have never owned a sharp knife, and still don't. We tried to return them too late, after my boyfriend used them to see how dull they were. They offered to sharpen them, but we didn't want to hassle with returning them and pay for shipping. We tried to sharpen with knife sharpener, which helped a little bit. Recently we had them sharpened, but they said they were not good knives.

I am sorry but I do not know which knife you are referring to, but they are excellent knives and would recommend them.

Metal. BUT, they are a shiny finish rather than a matte finish like there other items.

The Blades are made from some type of Steel... Don't worry they're not sharp... But you could hit some one hard with them.

Metal.. It's a great knife, little heavy but that's good for a rescue knife.

I don't remember. I bought each of my 3 boys one of these and none of the knifes have survived. They are cheaply made

They are made of high carbon German steel. That doesn`t necessarily mean they`re made there. But I`ve worked in the steel industry most of my life, and I can tell you that High Carbon German Stainless is great for knives. I also have a Cut-co set for special occasions, but these knives are a very close second.I bought this set mainly for space savings, but was nicely surprised by the quality.

The handle is made out of wood, and the black thing is metal. The knife itself is very nice, but watch your fingers bro.

I'm sorry, i can't give you a definite answer. I gave them to my grandson who lives a long way away. I did see them before giving them and I would say metal. They definitely looked well made and durable. I was surprised at the time at the good quality for the price.

I'm not exactly sure but I believe they are made in China. The same company has higher end knives that are made in Japan. The important thing to remember is that it is a very high quality knife at a very affordable price. It will last long and hold an edge because it has high carbon steel. Most similarly priced knives will not have that.

The blade is made of three layers, with a ribbon of copper in between. The cutting edge is made of a high carbon steel which holds a very sharp edge. The outer layers are more malleable stainless steel for strength and durability. This knife can rust slightly, especially when in contact with salt water. It is a beautiful and elegant knife. I own two and carry one every day.
