Blade Materials
Tool steels are chosen based on their cutting
capability and also their wear characteristics. A
tool steel such as D2 is often the preferred
grade for shearing mild steel and light gauge
stainless. Whereas, a modified A8 might
be the selection for heavier gauge stainless
and similar tough materials.

Proper heat treating is absolutely critical to
producing a blade with optimum performance. A
change of just one point on the Rc scale can
have a significant effect on blade life and
performance. Using the latest in heat
treat technology,
we can insure you the best possible blade.
