I am thrilled to be getting the new CPM-S45VN steel to make a couple of knives for online reviewers and finally one for me!
CPM-S45VN is an update to the high performance CPM-S35VN stainless; better edge retention and better corrosion resistance; just the thing to make this the ultimate steel for kitchen knives. The testing being done all says the same – this may be the best knife steel ever made for professional chefs knives.
It is expensive, and it is hard to come by right now, so I can’t promise delivery times until stocks are built up and different sizes are stocked by my steel suppliers. If you are interested in a knife with this new steel. Use the contact form to get in touch, I can give you a better idea of what is available and when.
