  1. ExtremaRatio - N.K.1 Neck Knife - SanMai V-TOKU2 - Limited Edition - NK1 - Knife

    Japanese steel merges with Italian excellence

    For this 2021 collaboration, exclusive to Coltelleria Collini, we have decided to propose a series of best sellers produced by Extrema Ratio. Knives made with the famous San Mai steel produced by the Japanese Takefu Steel. Specifically we have used the carbonaceous V-Toku2 at 62/63HRC for the central plate and the stainless SUS410 for the two external plates, in order to guarantee a very high cutting capacity, penetration and edge holding together with an easy resharpening and maintenance but at the same time the blade has a remarkable resistance to corrosion and an important increase of resilience given by the type of extreme steel and the laminated structure.

     

    Intended Use: Neck Knife / Collector's Knife

    Type of production: Industrial
    Country of Production: Italy
    Blade / Handle: Full, laminated Japanese steel (San Mai) with V-Toku2 (carbonaceous) cutting edge at 62/63HRC and SUS410 (stainless steel) outer cheeks
    Blade finish: Satin finish
    Blade length: 40mm.
    Blade thickness: 3mm.
    Total length: 129mm.
    Weight: 55g.
    Sheath: Kydex, for neck.
    Packaging: Cardboard box with Extrema Ratio logos.
    Notes: Numbered edition - cardboard box with Extremaratio logos and certificate - the central core of the blade and handle is made of carbon steel so it is recommended to wash/dry the knife very well after each use and protect the steel, during storage, with a light surface of lubricant to avoid rust and oxidation.

     

     

    As in the ancient swords of the Japanese Samurai.

    The rolled steel - imported in Italy by Collini Steel directly from the Japanese Takefu Steel - is based on the ancient Japanese tradition in the creation of the famous Samurai swords. As early as 1100, expert Japanese blacksmiths combined different materials to give Katana swords incredible cutting capabilities combined with previously unknown strength and flexibility. It is thanks to this revolutionary construction technique that the Samurai swords have been preserved until our days becoming one of the most fascinating objects made by man. Following this tradition applied to modern metallurgy, we are now able to have technologically advanced steels already tested and used in cutlery also by famous brands such as Fallkniven, Cold Steel, Mcusta, Kai, Sog, Zwilling, Rockstead, etc.

    Characteristics of San Mai steel: It is made of different types of metals alloyed together to create a composite that contains and intensifies the strengths of the metals individually taken:

    - Longer cutting edge life
    thanks to the use of high quality steels with a high carbon content (VG10, CoS, Shiro) or sintered (SPG2), in the core steel, the blade, once hardened, reaches hardness and cutting performance decidedly superior to those achieved with the use of traditional steels.

    - Greater resilience
    Built on the principle of Japanese swords, the multilayer steel is difficult to break thanks to the toughness of the central steel (Core Steel) and the elasticity of the steel used for the lateral coating (Stainless Steel).

    - Improved corrosion resistance
    The steel used for the outer layers (Stainless Steel) gives the blade a high resistance to corrosion. The combination of the two or more materials used by Takefu Steel generates, at a galvanic level, a structure that improves corrosion resistance even on the edge.

    - Easy machining even after heat treatment
    Although steel normally becomes harder after hardening, the lateral steel used in multilayer machining does not lose its softness and allows easy machining, drilling or welding even after heat treatment. For optimum blade performance, cryogenic treatment is recommended.

    - Improved aesthetic performance
    Knives made of multi-state steel or damask pattern at the end of the processing are aesthetically elegant, refined and highly appreciated by collectors all over the world.
