N690 EDC Knife Blank - N82 (N82)

N690 EDC Knife Blank - N82

Everyday carry is about compromise done well: enough blade to be useful, little enough to disappear on the belt. This blank sits in that sweet spot. Full tang construction.

N690 balances edge life against corrosion resistance better than almost anything in its price band. It sharpens back easily and shrugs off moisture.

Every blank starts as certified Voestalpine stock. We profile and hand grind it in our own workshop, then send it back to Voestalpine for professional heat treatment.
