1.4116 Sandblasted Knife Blank - SK15
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.
Every blank starts as certified Voestalpine stock. We profile and hand grind it in our own workshop, then send it back to Voestalpine for professional heat treatment.
