What steel types are your knives made from?Updated a year ago

The knives we craft are made from a combination of 52100 Ball Bearing Steel and Magnacut Stainless Steel.

  • Magnacut Stainless Steel - tough, great edge retention, resistant to corrosion, and easy to resharpen.
  • 52100 Ball Bearing Steel - known for its unmatched toughness and sharpness, but is not as corrosion resistant as other steels. This is the reason all 52100 Ball Bearing steel in our knives is parkerized to protect it from corrosion and rust.
