This is an excellent quality precision knife stock and 100% guaranteed. Corrugations are creep feed crush ground for maximum tolerance control. Cutting surface is super fine inline ground for excellent finishes in jointed applications. Our knives are made to exceed the ISO industry standard and provide trouble free long run performance. Knives are high grade AISI mill run steels that are salt bath hardened and triple draw stress relieved for greater consistency.

M2-HSS has earned the reputation of being industry standard in the woodworking field. It contains 6% Tungsten and 5% Molybdenum and hardened to 62 RC for better wear resistance in harder materials. Great for long runs in hardwoods and softwoods.
T1-HSS Offers 20% or more in longer run times than M2 and excels at resisting abrasion to glue lines.It is a well liked European grade and is made of 18% Tungsten for extra long runs. T1 is hardened to 64 RC, and cuts and grinds much the same as M2. T1-HSS is popular in mills that do long runs in mostly hardwoods or for softwood mills that want the ultimate in knife life and cutting performance.

Specialty High Speed Steels
V3N-HSS High Vanadium long wearing steel is the latest in Super Steel technology. It is a long wearing steel and absolutely the best choice before resorting to carbide.

V3N should be hogged with ceramic or our Salt & Pepper grinding wheels and then finish ground with CBN.
