MD305 – high-performance steel for modern kitchen knives

MD305 steel is a modern material designed for high cutting performance, blade stability, and long blade life. Thanks to its optimized chemical composition with a higher proportion of carbon and alloying elements, it offers a balanced combination of hardness, toughness, and wear resistance.

When properly heat treated, it achieves a hardness of approximately 60 HRC, ensuring long blade life and a stable cutting edge even with intensive use. The MD305 steel blade retains its sharpness when cutting meat, vegetables, and harder ingredients, providing a clean, controlled cut without unnecessary resistance.

MD305 also offers good corrosion resistance, making it a practical choice for everyday kitchen use. Compared to basic stainless steels, it provides higher performance and longer intervals between sharpening, while maintaining reasonable maintenance requirements.

This steel is suitable for demanding home cooks and professional users who are looking for a reliable material with long edge retention and balanced performance without compromise.
