Product detailed description

When it comes to knife making, using blade blanks is one of the best ways to start. Blade blanks are pre-cut and pre-shaped pieces of steel that serve as a template for creating a custom knife. They are perfect for beginners looking to get into the craft of knife-making while still honing their skills.

The blade comes with 3 screws (Knife Handle Fasteners M2.5 Inner Hexagon Screw).

Dimensions:

• Total length – 8 1/2 inches (216 mm)
• Blade length – 4 inches (100 mm)
• Handle length – 4 1/3 inches (110 mm)
• Blade width – 1 inch (24 mm)
• Blade thickness – 0.11 inches (2,8 mm)

This blade is made of 1066 carbon steel, hardened 57-59 HRC. Carbon steel blades are made with a combination of carbon and iron. Designed to be strong, durable, and sharp, it makes them ideal for both everyday use and more specialized tasks. They often feature higher levels of edge retention than many other types of blades, which make them a great choice for cutting meat and vegetables.
Despite their relative strength and durability, they require regular maintenance to stay in peak condition. Since the blade is made of carbon steel, it must be thoroughly washed and wiped dry after use. This will protect your knife from corrosion. Oiling the blade regularly will help minimize rust formation.

Whether you’re an avid outdoors-person or just looking for a reliable blade for everyday use, carbon steel is sure to meet your requirements.
