Hi. I’m no specialist but from what I understand if the steel is too soft then it will get dull fast and can get bent if hitting something hard (bone). If it is too hard it can chip. A quality steel needs to have enough carbone and has been hardened and tempered properly to get the right amount of hardness vs softness.
