AISI 1075 folded steel

AISI 1075 steel is a carbon steel that is often used to make knives, especially those that are to be made by the folding method. The folding method is a traditional technique used to create a multi-layered pattern in steel. This process not only creates an aesthetically attractive pattern on the surface of the knife, but can also improve the strength and durability of the knife. When making knives using the folding method, AISI 1075 steel is folded into layers, which are then repeatedly bent and welded together. In this way, a multi-layer structure is created, which gives the knife a unique appearance and properties. AISI 1075 steel is well rated for this purpose because it has sufficient carbon and other impurities to provide the required mechanical properties such as strength and hardness. Knives made of AISI 1075 steel by folding method are often valued for their durability, sharp edge and beautiful visual effect of the pattern on the surface. However, it is important to note that the process of folding and finishing a knife can affect its final properties, and it is also essential that this process is carried out by an experienced and qualified craftsman.
