Hand Knife Steel
voestalpine has state-of-the-art steel making facilities. Among them is one of the world’s most modern plants for powder metallurgical steel, where the steel making process is a triple update from standard levels. That’s why we call our PM (Uddeholm grades) SuperClean and (BÖHLER grades) MICROCLEAN. For knife manufacturers, it means steel that enables sharper edges, tougher blades and trouble-free production with excellent grinding and polishing properties.
