The company (Otter knives) who bought the machines and rights to use the name „Mercaror“ continues to produce knives with quality steel. The Carbon steel version is made from C75, the stainless version is made from 1.4034, both a German/European steel numbers.
Unfortunately there are a lot of knock offs coming from China being sold under the same name.
So if you want an original, use a trustworthy dealer.
