INFORMATION & ADVICE

Discover the advantages of steel Damasteel RWL34TM for cutlery

The RWL34TM is named after the world-famous cutlery Robert W Loveless (January 1929–September 2010). Bob Loveless or RW Loveless was an American cutlery that popularized, among other things, hollow-moulded drop point blades as well as hollowed full silk knives. He is recognized by his peers and collectors as one of the most innovative in the world of custom knife manufacturers. Bob discovered and used ATS34, a Japanese steel for ball bearings manufactured by Kobe Steel, which was found to be the most suitable for demanding knife blades.

Pelle Billgren, the founder of Damasteel, was at that time looking for the best cutlery stainless steel when he learned what Bob had discovered.

The Damasteel RWL34TM, a powder metallurgy steel:

Pelle was able to transform ATS34, which was already of good quality, into a superior alloy from powder metallurgy. Damasteel were the first in the world to produce a metallurgy version of the ATS34 powder named RWL34TM with reference to Bob Loveless. Today, the RWL34TM is manufactured in one of the most modern powder metallurgy plants ensuring an incomparable purity of the material.

Martensitic inox Damasteel RWL34TM is a powder metallurgy (RSP) variant of stainless steel 420 (with >13% Chrome).
