1.4116 Sandblasted Knife Blank - SK27
The blasted surface is a practical finish: no reflections in the field and no need to chase a mirror polish on the flats. A full tang knife blank, so the scales pin straight to the steel.
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.
