Lie-Nielsen Blades

Typical Lie-Nielsen blades are extra thick, 1/8" Cryogenically treated A-2 steel tempered to Rockwell Rc 60-62, creating a high quality, longer lasting blade. Lie-Nielsen's careful heat treatment produces a fine grain structure so the blade will take a very fine edge. Blades get a full surface grinding of the top, back and cutting edge, giving a smooth flat finish requiring little honing before use.
