The blade of this knife was forged from 80mm thick raw material. The steel was forged down to 12-14mm within one heat with a forging start temperature of 900 degrees. Subsequently the blank was forged at a maximum of 780 degrees. After each heat, the blank was cooled to below 721 degrees. This process produces a very fine-grained matrix and very small and finely divided carbides.
