HardCORE 

#HardCOREfuturon is stainless damascus steel with MagnaCut, Elmax, CPM154 or AEB-L cores. MagnaCut, Elmax and CPM154 are high-end powder steels with an excellent grain structure and properities. Sides from austenitic-martensitic damascus make an excellent contrast between the layers. #HardCOREfuturon damascus excels in high visual contrast, together with corrosion resistance, sharpness and durability. We produce this material in different patterns, soft annealed for smooth processing. We produce 3.1 mm – 8 mm (.125 – .310 in) thickness billets. This material is suitable for all knives or cutting tools where you require extreme durability and aesthetic qualities.

MAGNA core

Stainless Damasus with Crucible MagnaCut core. MagnaCut is a groundbreaking American-made powder metallurgy stainless steel for knives. An excellent combination of toughness and wear resistance makes it a great choice for small folders, choppers or kitchen knives.

  • Marking: “FF CPM154 core”
  • Hashtags: #HardCOREfuturon #FFCPM154core

AEB-L core

AEB-L is martensitic stainless steel with a fine grain microstructure developed for razors and surgical scalpels. AEB-L provides good wear and corrosion resistance.

  • Composition of outer layers: AISI304 + AEB-L steel
  • San-Mai layered AEB-L core stainless damascus
  • High contrast etching
  • Soft annealed
  • Hardenable up to 61 HRc
  • Great for knife blades, razors
  • Marking: “FF AEBL core”
  • Hashtags: #HardCOREfuturon #FFAEBLcore

Stainless

#StainlessFuturon is a non-corrosive damascus steel produced in variety of pattens and layerings, soft annealed for smooth processing. Number of damascus layers ranges between 100-350 layers. We produce billets in 3–8 mm (.118 – .315 in) thickness and rods in ø18-45 mm (0.7 – 1.7 in) diameter.

CONTRAST

#FFCONTRAST is stainless damascus steel with a high contrast (shiny-silver/black). The common mixture ratio varies from 3:1 to 2:1 (martensitic AEB-L : austenitic AISI 304).

  • Composite of AEB-L + AISI 304 steel
  • Soft annealed
  • Requires heat treatment
  • AEB-L is hardenable up to 61 HRc
  • High contrast etching
  • Great for knives, bolsters, jewelry, watchcases, pens, or artwork production
  • Marking: “FF CONTRAST”
  • Hashtags: #StainlessFuturon #FFCONTRAST

MARTENSITE

#FFMARTENSITE is stainless damascus steel combining two high-performance martensitic steels by Uddeholm with good corrosion resistance, excellent cutting abilities and excellent toughness.

  • High-performance martensititc stainless Damascus
  • Composite of UHB AEB-L and UHB SS716
  • Soft annealed
  • Hardenable up to 61HRc
  • Nice grey-silver/black contrast

Rainbow

#RainbowFuturon is a damascus composite of various Titanium grades (Gr2, Gr5, Gr7 or Gr9) with Zirconium or Niobium. Our composites are hypoallergenic – suitable for contact with the human skin and highly corrosion resistant. Titanium composites even with Zirconium are relatively low-weighted. We produce this material in various shapes, layering, patterns, mainly flat bars, rods, or bolster mosaics.

Rainbow-Zr

#Rainbow-Zr aka #BlackFuturon is Titanium-Zirconium damascus composite.
Zirconium – Zr – is a highly corrosion resistant element. Because of it’s unique properities is used in space, aeronautic and medical  industries.

  • Adding a black colour into the anodization colour spectrum
  • You can reach different colours by electro-chemical or heat oxidation
  • Each piece of produced material can be coloured differently
  • Suitable for knife handle, knife hardware, jewelry applications, watchmaking or pen making
  • Marking: “FF Rainbow-Zr”
  • Hashtags: #BlackFuturon #Rainbow-Zr

Rainbow-Ti
