CPM S30V is a martensitic (hardened) powder-made (sintered) wear and corrosion-resistant stainless steel developed by Dick Barber of Crucible Industries in collaboration with knifemaker Chris Reeve.

2021年7月1日 · CPM S30V steel is a powder metallurgy type of stainless steel produced by the US Crucible Industries. S30V steel offers a great balance in terms of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance. It is often considered premium steel and …

Edge Retention: With a maximum of 61HRC due to the mixture of Tungsten, Vanadium, Manganese, and Carbon, the CPM S30V offers a great hardness followed up by an excellent Edge Retention. Corrosion Resistance: Being a stainless Steel CPM S30V Offers a great Corrosion Resistance due to 14% of Chromium.

2024年12月25日 · CPM S30V is a martensitic stainless steel made using powder metallurgy. It has excellent toughness, wear resistance, and corrosion resistance. Its vanadium carbides enhance wear resistance, while the powder metallurgy process ensures uniformity and dimensional stability.

Plenty of experts and CPM S30V knife owners rave that it’s the best all-around steel you can find. Manufacturers also appreciate how easy it is wo machine and work with, while consumers love that it’s a lot more affordable than the ultra-premium super steels (and easier to sharpen too).

2020年4月13日 · S30V was designed to offer a “balanced” stainless steel which could offer good grindability, toughness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention. It was designed in conjunction with knife companies, knifemakers, and heat treaters to …

CPM S30V is a martensitic stainless steel designed to offer the best combination of toughness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance. Its chemistry has been specially balanced to promote the formation of vanadium carbides which are harder and more effective than chromium carbides in providing wear resistance. CPM S30V offers substantial

2023年7月5日 · This CPM steel contains high mounts of chromium (14%), classifying it as a stainless steel. S30V resists rust and corrosion well, making it an excellent blade steel for wet weather, maritime environments, and humid conditions.

CPM® S30V® offers substantial improvement in toughness over other high hardness steels such as 440C and D2, and its corrosion resistance is equal to or better than 440C in various environments.

2024年1月12日 · S30V, also referred to as the CPM S30V, is an American steel made by the Crucible Industries following powder metallurgy, hence the name Crucible Powder Metallurgy. Its intended purpose of development was to have a balance across all traits of what makes steel favorable as a knife material.
