Stainless, martensitic steel with high hardness and high wear resistance and good cutting power due to the higher carbon content. Compared to the AISI / SAE 440B this steel has a slightly higher hardenability at the expense of the corrosion resistance. The material is conditionally acid resistant.

Knives for the food industry, for example frozen food cutters, pork and beef cleaving knives and fish industry knives as well as accessories for meat grinders.
