Magnacut / PM115

[Neo]

Crucible has the trademarks for the name MagnaCut but not the patent on the composition.
Almost all steels have Proprietary Equivalents from other manufacturers.
Magnacut is a new steel and very popular and manufacturers are already making equivalents.
The question is: has anyone heard of PM115 steel?

 

[Delgadonine]

Googled it.

Link to Alibaba came up.

No thanks.

I'll pass on Chinese copy steels just like I pass on Chinese copy knives. Real Magnacut is plentiful at a variety of price ranges.

Chinese steel mills have been producing PM steels for a number of years now. Is it M390 / Magnacut or just a copy? With little regard for intellectual property, it is a coin flip if something from China is legit.

I'm sure you can obtain the relevant information you require from the manufacturer and vendors.
