Tool steel produced by powder metallurgy from Udeholm. Excellent steel for hunting knives and heavy duty chopping and bushcraft knives

Uddeholm Vanadis 4 Extra SuperClean is the most versatile PM tool steel on the market today, combining high wear resistance with very good ductility and resistance to blade breakage. The excellent machinability in both annealed and hardened condition provides advantages in edge refinishing after hardening and facilitates deburring after grinding on the grinder. The steel is not corrosion resistant, but is not easily subject to deep corrosion. The hardness of our hardened blades made of this steel reaches approx. 61 HRC.
