   420HC (420C) is a higher carbon content 420 stainless steel. The HC stands for "high carbon" and it can be brought to a higher hardness than regular 420 and should not be mistaken for it. Buck Knives, Gerber Knives and Leatherman use 420HC extensively. [7] 420A (420J1) and 420B (420J2) are economical, highly corrosion-resistant stainless steel ...

   Corrosion can be avoided by keeping the exposed portion of the non-stainless portion of the blade clean and dry after each use. Technically, it is a style of lamination used for blade construction, commonly used on blades that have a symmetrical grind (i.e. the edges are ground down from both sides to expose the edge, which is composed of the ...

   The jigane refers to soft cladding or skin of stainless steel, and hagane refers to hard cutting carbon steel core. There is sometimes an intermediate kawagane layer of a medium steel. This combination of metals makes laminated blades corrosion-resistant with the stainless steel, and strong with the high carbon steel.

   Well equipped makers usually use a large industrial belt grinder, or a belt grinder made specifically for knife making. The standard size for a knifemakers' belt grinder is a grinder that runs a belt size of 2" by 72". Pre-polish grinding on a heat treated blade can be done if the blade is kept cool, to preserve the temper of the steel.

   They were first developed to cut aluminum in the construction of aircraft, hence they are often referred to as aviation snips. They can handle aluminium up to 18 gauge, [2] mild steel up to 24 gauge or stainless steel up to 26 gauge.

   In 2009, Crucible Steel introduced an update to CPM-S30V to meet the needs of renowned knife maker Chris Reeve that they called CPM-S35VN. The addition of 0.5% Niobium, and reductions in both Carbon (from 1.45% to 1.40%) and Vanadium (from 4% to 3%) produced an alloy with 25% increase in measured Charpy V-notch toughness over S30V (Crucible claims 15-20% improvement).
