Known for its high hardness, edge retention, and cost-efficiency, SK5 has proven itself in both small workshops and large-scale production lines across Europe.
Tại Jiaxiaomtc, we supply precision cold-rolled SK5 tool steel strips that meet the demands of European cutlery brands—from outdoor knives in Germany to chef’s knives in France. Let’s take a look at what makes SK5 the preferred steel for knives and how our European clients are putting it to work.
✅ Key Benefits of SK5 Steel for Knife Making
1. High Carbon Content for Extra Hardness
SK5 contains around 0.75–0.85% carbon, giving it the hardness needed to reach lên tới HRC 60 after proper quenching. That means sharper blades that last longer—ideal for both professional and heavy-duty use.
2. Excellent Edge Retention
Chefs and craftsmen across Europe appreciate SK5 for its ability to stay sharp longer. Less sharpening means more efficiency in the kitchen or out in the field.
3. Balanced Toughness
With well-controlled manganese and silicon levels, SK5 offers a solid balance of hardness and flexibility. That means fewer chips and cracks—great news for utility knives and multi-tools.
4. Consistent Strip Dimensions
Thanks to our cold-rolling process, every strip of SK5 steel maintains tight thickness and width tolerances—a must for automated production lines in German and Italian factories.
5. Budget-Friendly, Premium Quality
SK5 gives you the performance of a premium tool steel, but without the premium price tag. It’s an ideal choice for both high-end and mid-range knife brands.
