Bohler M390 Microclean
Bohler M390 steel is a high quality stainless steel that is known for its excellent properties and wide range of applications, especially in the field of knife and tool making. It belongs to the category of powder steels, which means that it is produced by a powder metallurgy process where fine metal powders are mixed, compressed and then sintered at high temperatures.
A few key features of Bohler M390 steel include:
High corrosion resistance: M390 contains a balanced ratio of chromium, molybdenum and vanadium, giving it excellent corrosion resistance. This property is particularly important for knives and tools that may be exposed to wet environments.
High hardness: M390 achieves high hardness after hardening, making it a durable material with excellent edge retention.
Good wear resistance: thanks to its high hardness and strength, M390 is able to withstand wear and maintain its sharpness for a long time.
Good machinability: Even though M390 is a stainless steel with a high content of alloying elements, it has a relatively good machinability, which erleichtert processing in the manufacture of knives and other tools.
Bohler M390 steel is often used in high-end knives and tools where the emphasis is on high performance, durability and long blade life. It is popular among knife collectors and outdoor enthusiasts. It should be noted that knives made from this steel can be more expensive compared to knives made from more common materials, but offer superior quality and performance.
