Default Source for carbon steel knives

Dee Dee: As I understand it, high carbon steel is stainless steel with
extra carbon. It is probably very good, however I have carbon steel knives
that I really like. They will blacken and rust if left wet, but they seem
to get sharper than stainless and stay sharper longer. David
