Most of the cheaper stainless steel knives are made out of lower grade steel, softer than granite. They will dull quite quickly in that service.
True knife steel, the 440 series MAY scratch the granite, depending on the quality, which one of the 440's its made out of and how it was heat treated.

Stainless steel knives are made with magnetic stainless steel, while stainless steel fridges use non-magnetic stainless steel. The difference is due to the composition of the steel used in each, affecting their magnetic properties.
Common household items made of stainless steel include kitchen appliances (such as refrigerators and stoves), cookware (pots and pans), cutlery (knives and forks), kitchen sink, and bathroom fixtures (faucets and showerheads). Stainless steel is preferred for these items as it is durable, resistant to corrosion, and easy to clean.
Tools needed in the preparation of raw materials typically include knives, cutting boards, mixing bowls, measuring cups and spoons, scales, food processors, blenders, grinders, peelers, and graters. These tools help to cut, chop, blend, measure, grind, and prepare the raw ingredients for cooking or baking.
Both VG-10 and ATS-314 are high-quality stainless steels known for their edge retention and corrosion resistance. VG-10 is more commonly used in kitchen knives, while ATS-314 is often found in specialized cutting tools due to its higher hardness and wear resistance. The choice between the two will depend on the specific application and personal preference.
