14C28N stainless knife steel

14C28N is a martensitic stainless knife steel developed for knife production. The steel combines good edge stability and high attainable hardness with very good corrosion resistance, and is suitable for outdoor knives, hunting knives, fishing knives, and kitchen knives, among others.

14C28N requires controlled heat treatment to achieve the intended properties. Always follow Alleima's current hardening program for the chosen thickness.
