  carbon content 0,52 %, for hardening in oil, similar 1.4034/1.4037   perfect for making kitchen knives   Alleima® 12C27M, still produced in swedish Sandviken, is a martensitic stainless chromium steel developed for the manufacture of kitchen tools with high demands on wear- and corrosion resistance properties. After heat treatment the grade is characterized by:   High hardness which gives good wear resistance. Good corrosion resistance   Typical applications for Alleima® 12C27M are kitchen tools, such as different types of knives and scissors, that need to tolerate dish-washing.

  carbon content 0,53 %, for hardening in oil   perfect for making kitchen and outdoor knives   Knife steel 10C28Mo2, still produced in swedish Sandviken, is a martensitic stainless chromium steel developed for razor blade and knife applications with high demands on corrosion resistance. The carefully chosen chemical composition in combination with a very fine microstructure also provides a high hardness, good edge retention, toughness and edges that are easy to re-sharpen.   After heat treatment the grade is characterized by:   Very good corrosion resistance High hardness which gives good wear resistance Good toughness   Typical applications for 10C28Mo2 are kitchen knives and other tools where a dishwasher-safe material is required, professional butcher knives that need to be easily resharpened, outdoor knives, medical blades and razor blades, with high requirements on corrosion resistance and toughness.
