Collection: 440C STAINLESS

440C is a Japanese high-carbon, martensitic stainless steel widely regarded as one of the best all-around stainless steels for knife blades—especially in the classic 400-series family. It combines excellent hardness, wear resistance, edge retention, and corrosion resistance with relatively easy sharpening and affordability.

It’s a go-to steel for mid-range custom knives. 

When needed, re-sharpen the blade using a 1000 grit diamond whetstone.
