1.4116 EDC Knife Blank - K05 (K05)

1.4116 EDC Knife Blank - K05

At 90 mm (3.5 in) this crosses from pocket knife into belt knife territory. It handles rope, packaging and food prep without feeling undersized in a full grip.

German 1.4116 trades ultimate hardness for toughness. It resists chipping and comes back to sharp quickly, which is exactly what a working outdoor knife needs.

Steel sourced from Voestalpine, hand ground by our team, then heat treated professionally at the mill. Every blank arrives at working hardness.
