M390 Knife Blank - M16 (M16)

M390 Knife Blank - M16

A hardened, ground blade blank ready for handle work. The heat treatment is done and the geometry is set — everything after this is yours.

Böhler M390 is the benchmark PM stainless. Very high wear resistance and excellent corrosion behaviour make it the premium choice for a knife that must stay sharp.

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