N690 Outdoor Knife Blank - N02 (N02)

N690 Outdoor Knife Blank - N02

Outdoor work punishes a blade. Batoning, feathering, food prep and the occasional job a knife was never designed for — this profile is ground to take it.

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

Certified Voestalpine steel, hand ground in our workshop, professionally heat treated by Voestalpine before it ships. That is the whole process.
