Steel N695
Description
Steel N695 is a modification of the N690 steel of the Bohler-Uddeholm concern. Compared to N690, it offers higher toughness at the cost of poorer wear resistance. In terms of corrosion resistance, both materials are very similar and achieve top results. It is ideal for both kitchen knives and outdoor knives, requiring no maintenance apart from sharpening. It is hardened to a hardness of 59-62 HRC.
