It's gotta be 14C28N... right..? Never heard of 14C25N.
KnifeCenter says they're 14C28N. I'm guessing MASSDROP accidentally their number keys.
If it's actually a real steel, $75 doesn't seem terrible for a pair of 3.5"-ish fixed blade knives. I'm not really sure what makes them a steak knife vs any other small fixed blade, though.
It's not a great steel, but at least they'd sharpen up nice. Doesn't take much to cut steak, I guess?

DermottI’m fairly certain you are right about the steel, since there’s no such thing as 14C25N steel(yet anyway). Two main reasons I can see for referring to these as steak knives. One is they come in a nice little box/case rather than a sheath. Two is how thin of a blade. The blade is too thin for rough use you would normally expect a fixed blade knife to stand up to, but just right for a good steak knife. I suppose a third reason to market them as steak knives would be to sell more since a paring or other small kitchen knife would be sold individually instead of in sets of two.
