Where can I get a comparison chart for stainless steel? I have some knives,

I find matweb.com pretty useful. It's not in charts -- they have sheets
for each material.

Kinda technical. It certainly doesn't have anything like xxx is easier

looking for composition and mechanical properties -- it has that.
