Blade Material / Heat Treat

STEELPORT knives have solid one-piece traditional drop forged construction from blade tip to end cap with an integral bolster for a well-balanced and long-lasting knife. Through STEELPORT’s proprietary differential heat treatment, American 52100 Carbon Steel achieves an unmatched 65HRC hardness at the blade for exceptional long-lasting sharpness, while maintaining a softer 30HRC spine for lifelong durability. The bolster and spine are hand-polished smooth for a supremely comfortable pinch grip hold.

Fantastic Knives!

I had my eye on these Steelport knives for quite sometime. Yes, they’re expensive, but they’re handcrafted in Oregon (only American knife company in the US) and just exquisite. Very sharp and easy in the hand and free sharpening for life! You can’t beat that.
