1.4116 Sandblasted Knife Blank - SK01 (SK01)

1.4116 Sandblasted Knife Blank - SK01

A sandblasted finish hides scratches and kills glare. It also gives a grippy, matte surface that looks finished straight off the blank.

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.

The steel comes straight from Voestalpine. Profiling and grinding happen on our benches; hardening and tempering go back to the mill.
