CPM MagnaCut has the knife world buzzing. It’s been called the next big breakthrough in knife steels and created by Dr. Larrin Thomas. CPM MagnaCut is a premium stainless blade steel and only been available in recent years. The big selling points of MagnaCut are its high toughness, high wear resistance, and high corrosion resistance. Many knife steels settle for a tradeoff, like more toughness at the expense of wear resistance, but Dr. Larrin Thomas, professional metallurgist and writer of knifesteelnerds.com, employed some clever tricks to make MagnaCut score high marks in all categories. It has the toughness of CPM-4V (a hard-use steel found on high-end fixed blades) with the stainlessness of CPM-20CV (a tried-and-true premium knife steel used primarily in folders). Thanks to its high wear resistance, it boasts excellent edge retention, but in the same vein, might be a little challenging to sharpen. We recommend ceramic honing and stropping from time-to-time to keep the edge wicked sharp!
