Sleipner Knife Blank - S11 (S11)

Sleipner Knife Blank - S11

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.

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.
