All Crusader Forge Knives are made from CPM S30V stainless steel. CPM S30V is a martensitic stainless steel designed to offer the best combination of toughness, wear resistance and corrosion resistance. S30V steel chemistry has been specially balanced to promote the formation of vanadium carbides which are harder and more effective than chromium carbides in providing wear resistance.
Crusader Forge does not subcontract any part of their manufacturing process. Their consistency and control over every aspect of production provides the highest level of quality. Crusader knives are designed and tested for comfort, cutting ability, safety for the user, balance and handling characteristics.
