M390 Knife Blank - M10 (M10)

M390 Knife Blank - M10

A hardened, ground blade blank ready for handle work. The heat treatment is done and the geometry is set — everything after this is yours. A full tang knife blank, so the scales pin straight to the steel.

M390 sits at the top of the stainless ladder. It goes remarkably far between sharpenings and resists corrosion in conditions that would mark lesser steels.

The steel comes straight from Voestalpine. Profiling and grinding happen on our benches; hardening and tempering go back to the mill.
