Sleipner Knife Blank - S02
A hardened, ground blade blank ready for handle work. The heat treatment is done and the geometry is set — everything after this is yours.
Sleipner is chosen where edge retention matters more than stainless behaviour. At 60-62 HRC it holds an edge through serious work and still sharpens sensibly.
Steel sourced from Voestalpine, hand ground by our team, then heat treated professionally at the mill. Every blank arrives at working hardness.
