1.4116 Sandblasted Knife Blank - SK30
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.
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.
Certified Voestalpine steel, hand ground in our workshop, professionally heat treated by Voestalpine before it ships. That is the whole process.
