AISI 1075 folded steel
AISI 1075 steel is a carbon steel that is often used to make knives, especially those that are to be folded. The folding process is a traditional technique used to create a multi-layered pattern in steel. This process not only creates an aesthetic pattern on the surface of the knife, but can also improve the strength and durability of the knife.

In the folded knife manufacturing method, AISI 1075 steel is folded into layers which are then repeatedly bent and welded. This creates a multi-layered structure that gives the knife its unique appearance and properties. AISI 1075 steel is suitable for this purpose because it has sufficient carbon content and other impurities to provide the required mechanical properties such as strength and hardness. Knives made from AISI 1075 steel by the folding method are often appreciated for their durability, sharp edge and the beautiful visual effect of the pattern on the surface. However, it should be noted that the bending and subsequent machining of the knife can affect its final properties and that this process must be carried out by an experienced and qualified craftsman.
