I don't have an opinion on any of those steels but I do wonder why you're looking at them? One of them might out perform the steels you use now by some small margin but how much time,money, and effort is it worth to find out?
This question reminds me of something my martial arts teacher said when one of the students asked him "What is the best martial art?". The teacher said, " The one you master". In short, I'd say the best steel is the one you master. An excellent job done with steel that you use all the time will probably beat a half baked job done on some super steel. I'd rather spend my time making very good knives out of a steel I am confident of and selling them. If my sales slow down because I'm not using the 'super steel of the month' or because most of my customers complain the blade can't do what they want it to do then I'll start looking for another steel.....
