Hide And Watch - Vulcan Custom Knives Rubicon
Published: 2 weeks ago
Let's unbox a very cool customer knife made by Mark of Vulcan Knives
https://vulcanknives.com/
This knife features Z-Max steel which can get up to insane hardnesses!
Z-Max Steel (also known as Z-Max PM) is an ultra-high-performance powder metallurgy high-speed tool steel manufactured by Zapp Tooling Alloys. It is highly regarded by knifemakers and steel enthusiasts for its extreme wear resistance, incredible hardness, and edge-holding capabilities.
Key Characteristics
Hardness: It can be heat-treated to an extreme hardness of 68 to 70+ HRC (Rockwell C scale).
Wear Resistance: Because of a high volume of hard carbides (vanadium and tungsten), it is incredibly resistant to wear.
Toughness: While it has superior edge-holding capability, it is a non-stainless, high-carbon steel. At extremely high hardness levels, its toughness is relatively low, making it susceptible to micro-chipping if used aggressively against hard surfaces.
