4116 All Purpose Kitchen Blade L size
Sized up for serious board work, this large all-purpose profile handles the volume that a medium blade turns into a chore. The blade measures 180 mm, 310 mm overall.
X50CrMoV15 is the pragmatic choice. Molybdenum and vanadium give it wear resistance without brittleness, and the chromium content makes it genuinely low-maintenance in a working kitchen.
We buy our steel direct from Voestalpine, grind each blade by hand on the belt grinder, and return the finished blanks to Voestalpine for professional heat treatment. No guesswork, no garage quenching.
