What are straight blades?

A straight blade is a knife with a sharp edge on one or both sides. They are typically made from high-carbon steel and are very hard and durable.

Straight blades are one of the most common blades used in cutting food and for self-defense. They can also be used for other tasks such as drilling, grinding, and shaping. The blade can be made from various materials, such as carbide and stainless steel. The sharpness of a straight blade makes it ideal for cutting through rigid materials like wood, metal, and plastic.

If precision, quality and short lead time all matter for your straight blades and flat blades, then you are at the right place. Baucor manufactures and supplies literally thousands of both standard and custom size precision straight blades and flat blades for all kinds of use from slitting, cutting and perforating to rewinding.

Advantages of using straight blades

There are many advantages of using straight blades:

  • Stronger and more durable:
    Straight blades are much stronger and more durable than other blades. They are less likely to break or chip and can withstand more extensive use.

  • Sharpness:
    Straight blades are incredibly sharp, which makes them ideal for precision work, such as woodworking or metalworking.

  • Easier to sharpen:
    It is easier to sharpen and maintain than other types of blades.

  • Versatility:
    Straight blades can be used for multiple tasks. They are just as effective for cutting food as they are for cutting metal or plastic.

How straight blades are manufactured?

  • Cutting:
    The manufacturing process for these blades involves cutting the desired shape from a metal sheet. CNC machines are typically used for this purpose.

  • Heating:
    Once the blade has been cut from the sheet, it undergoes a series of heat treatment processes that harden and temper the metal and gives it the strength and durability it needs to withstand use.

  • Sharpening:
    After the blade is heated, it is sharpened to remove any imperfections. Next, a grinding process is used to refine the blade's edge and make it even sharper.

  • Coating:
    The tips of the blade can be coated with different materials to help improve resistance to wear or corrosion. The most common materials used for coating the tips of blades are chromium and tungsten.
