1.4116 Sandblasted Knife Blank - SK23

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.

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