CPM MagnaCut 3,5mm x 40mm x 615mm

CPM MagnaCut steel, specifically designed and developed for knife making.
CPM MagnaCut is a stainless steel manufactured by Crucible Industries, an American company known for its expertise in specialty steels. This very special grade was developed specifically for the cutlery industry and meets the requirements of the most demanding cutlers. A technical quality that was specially developed for demanding knife makers.

CPM MagnaCut is a powder metallurgically produced stainless steel that guarantees a fineness and purity that cannot be compared to those of more "conventional" steels. CPM MagnaCut will meet the expectations of the most demanding because it combines so many qualities:

The ratio of toughness and edge retention is exceptional
It is extremely corrosion resistant
Fine structure, high purity
Depending on the heat treatment carried out, high levels of hardness are possible

Due to its many technical properties, CPM MagnaCut is suitable for all types of knife blades, whether hunting, outdoor or folding knives. It is particularly interesting for the realization of blades where the cutting edge must be fine and stable, such as in Japanese kitchen knives.
