Customized Martensitic Stainless Steel Strip 420j2 for knife

420J2 stainless steel is a martensitic stainless steel that is part of the 400 series. Martensitic stainless steels are characterized by their high hardness, excellent strength, and good corrosion resistance in certain environments. The "J2" designation indicates that it is a variant of 420 stainless steel.
Availability:

  • 420J2

  • DSM

Does 420J2 stainless steel need heat treatment when used as knives?

420J2 stainless steel usually needs heat treatment when used as knives, otherwise its hardness and cutting performance will not meet actual needs. Only after quenching + tempering heat treatment can its martensitic structure be stimulated and the hardness be increased to 48~55HRC (depending on the specific processing process) to be competent for lightweight knife use.

Process Process parameters Description
Annealing 790~840℃, slow cooling Used to soften the material for easier processing
Quenching 980~1050℃ heating, oil cooling or air cooling Forming martensite and increasing hardness
Tempering 150~250℃

Reduce quenching stress, stabilize structure, adjust hardness and toughness

Razor blades (external blade net)
