SALE - 154-CM 3ft bars
As a better version of 440-C, Crucible 154-CM has been a standard in the industry for almost 20 years.
It is understandable why many makers choose it as their first choice when attempting to work with stainless steel, because it is simple to grind, heat treat, and finish.
Molybdenum added, offers increased wear resistance and high-performance edges with improved corrosion resistance.
Like other stainless steel, it benefits from cryogenic treatment after quenching and is ideally suited to controlled temperatures and oxygen shielding.
It is clear why so many makers and industry titans have made it their top pick given its ease in taking a fine edge and getting it to polish to a great mirror finish.
Bars are sold in 3ft lengths.
The bars are mill finish and not precision ground.
