Which is better, chrome vanadium steel or high carbon steel?

I think chrome vanadium steel and high carbon steel have their own characteristics and advantages.

1, mechanical properties

The mechanical properties of Cr-V steel and high carbon steel are different. Chromium-vanadium steel has high strength and toughness, and is suitable for occasions that need to bear heavy loads and impacts, such as heavy mechanical parts and tools.

2. Corrosion resistance

Chromium vanadium steel has better corrosion resistance than high carbon steel. This is because chromium can form stable oxides in steel, thus improving the corrosion resistance of steel.

3. expenses

Chromium vanadium steel is more expensive than high carbon steel. This is mainly because the manufacturing process of Cr-V steel is more complicated and requires higher raw material cost and processing cost.
