Knives are creep feed crush ground and salt bath heat treated. All knives are square back with 60 degree corrugations; 16 corrugations per inch. T1 grade high speed steel offers 10-20% longer run times than M2 knives. This is due to the increased tungsten content versus M2 which increases the knives' ability to withstand abrasion. These knives are hardened to 63 RC and easily profiled with the same wheels used to grind the M2 steel. |
