What steel do custom knife makers use for kitchen knives?

June 26, 2024


3Cr13 Stainless Steel

3Cr13 is a common stainless steel material that is widely used in the manufacture of tool blades. This steel is a martensitic stainless steel containing 0.3% carbon and 13% chromium, and has many ideal properties for making knives.


3Cr13 steel has good corrosion resistance and can resist the erosion of most chemicals, allowing it to maintain a good surface condition even in a humid environment. At the same time, after heat treatment, 3Cr13 steel can obtain higher hardness and toughness, thus having good cutting performance and wear resistance. These characteristics make 3Cr13 steel an ideal choice for making high-strength tools such as knives, blades, etc.


In general, 3Cr13 steel has been widely used in the market due to its excellent performance and relatively reasonable price.


5Cr15Mov Stainless Steel

5Cr15MoV material does have a fairly high stability, which is mainly due to its excellent chemical composition ratio and heat treatment process. The hardness of 5Cr15MoV is about HRC58-60. Its high carbon content greatly improves the hardness of the tool, while the metal elements of chromium, molybdenum and vanadium have good special properties for the corrosion resistance, wear resistance and toughness of the tool.


Specifically, the yield strength, tensile strength, elongation and impact toughness of 5Cr15MoV are more than 20% higher than those of ordinary stainless steel materials, which makes it perform well in terms of bearing pressure, tensile resistance, deformation and impact resistance. At the same time, the material also has good forgeability and plasticity, and is easy to form and process through various processing methods, further improving its flexibility in the manufacturing process.

The above two are more commonly used blade materials. If you have special requirements or other ideas, please consult RUITAI Company, we will provide you with a more accurate solution.
