M2 Knife Steel Composition Analysis Graph And Information Details

Very popular high-speed steel, it can hold its temper even at very high temperatures, and as such is used in industry for high-heat cutting jobs. Not quite knife works, but M2 does have better wear resistance and toughness at the same hardness compared to such a popular knife steel as D2. Makes better blade steel, unless stain resistance is an issue. Benchmade used to make M2 knives, including AFCK, 710 and Nimravus. Note - Si, S and Mn are taken from Crucible specs. Other makers may have different amount. See versions from Latrobe in this database.
