A Brief History of MagnaCut Steel

Developed by metallurgist Dr. Larrin Thomas, MagnaCut quickly earned a reputation as one of the most impressive modern steels ever produced. It was engineered specifically for knives, offering a unique microstructure that delivers exceptional wear resistance without sacrificing toughness. Its ability to hold a razor keen edge while resisting corrosion in even the harshest environments helped it rise to worldwide recognition within the industry. Until now, Cold Steel fans could only admire MagnaCut from afar, but the Recon M1 introduces this celebrated steel to their lineup for the very first time.
