1.4116 Sandblasted Knife Blank - SK05
A sandblasted finish hides scratches and kills glare. It also gives a grippy, matte surface that looks finished straight off the blank.
1.4116 (X50CrMoV15) is tough, highly corrosion resistant and forgiving to sharpen. For a first build or a knife that will be abused, it is the sensible choice.
We buy steel direct from Voestalpine, grind each blade by hand on the belt grinder, and return the blanks to Voestalpine for heat treatment done to spec.
