I'm reviewing a Cheap AliExpress Chef's knife from Wallop; the core material is made from a Japanese AUS-8 stainless steel material.

This knife chef's knife from Wallop has a Claimed imported Japanese AUS8 Stainless steel. The advertised Rockwell was 58 when I got the knife, but Wallop has changed the description to HRC56+.

This is absolutely not acceptable for a Japanese AUS8, and if Wallop has stated the HRC correctly from the start, I would have personally never bought this Wallop Chef's knife.

Wallop Chef's Knife AUS8 Stainless Steel specifications:
Weight: 307g
Handle: G10 + Mosaic Rivet
Endcap: No Logo
Handle length: 13.5cm
Blade length: 22cm
Blade width: 5.6cm
Total Lenght: 35.5cm
Thickness: 2.6mm
Distal taper: Spine and profile distal taper.
Core Material: Japanese AUS8 Stainless Steel
HRC: 56+ (as advertised by Wallop).
My HRC Rating: 55 or even lower
Japanese AUS8: Should be 58/59 HRC

PS: I only got the AUS8 knife versions from Wallop and the German Steel 1.4116 Wallop Knife. Both are not recommended!
