Precise cryogenic tempering increases the steel's crystalline structure, enhancing strength, flexibility and hardness, and the ability to hold a keen edge over time. 420HC is a stainless steel alloy with a relatively high amount of carbon compared to other stainless alloys. For example, AISI grade 420 stainless steel normally contains 0.15% by weight of carbon, but the 420HC variant used for cutlery has 0.4% to 0.5%. The increased carbon content is intended to provide the best attributes of carbon steel and ordinary steel. High carbon stainless steel blades do not discolor or stain and maintain a sharp edge for a reasonable time.to increase strength. Forged blades are made in a multi-step process by skilled manual labor. A chunk of steel alloy is heated to a high temperature and pounded while hot to form it. The blade is then heated above the critical temperature, quenched in an appropriate liquid, and tempered to the desired hardness. After forging and heat-treating, the blade is polished and sharpened manual. Forged blades are typically thicker, heavier, and more durable than stamped blades.
