ApexUltra - is a high quality knife steel developed by Larrin Thomas, Tobias Hangler and Marco Guldimann. It has excellent mechanical properties: extremely high hardness (~66 HRC), but at the same time extraordinary resistance to breakage (toughness).
Important features include:
- The high purity and homogeneity of the steel means fewer crack initiation points and more integrity.
- Fine structures and carbides for better sharpness and resistance to blade damage.
- Excellent combination of edge retention and micro-abrasion resistance.
- It can be forged and welded, making it the ideal steel for culinary knives that require thin, sharp blades.
- It is also easy to sharpen - although steel is hard, its structure allows the use of traditional stone sharpeners, even without diamond tools.
