Steel Properties
When it comes to knife making, the choice of steel is crucial for achieving durability, sharpness, and overall performance. One of the leading choices among knife enthusiasts and craftsmen is N690 steel. Renowned for its exceptional properties, N690 steel is a high-performance stainless steel that is particularly recognized for its corrosion resistance and edge retention, making it an ideal choice for puukko knife making.
N690 steel's high chromium content offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for outdoor use, even in harsh environments. Thanks to its balanced composition, N690 steel maintains a sharp edge longer than many other steels, which means less frequent sharpening and more reliable performance. N690 is known for its toughness, which minimizes the risk of chipping and ensures longevity, even with heavy usage.
