🔧 Precision-crafted for serious gamefowl professionals.

The Kinkelder KIN’S Green Stainless Performance, previously branded as Fusion NX, is a TiCN-coated stainless steel engineered for high-performance tari blade crafting. Offered in both 2.0mm and 2.5mm thickness, it provides a strong, stable platform for precise edge profiling and brazing. The Titanium Carbonitride (TiCN) coating delivers enhanced surface hardness, reduced friction, and superior oxidation resistance. Combined with its stainless base, this material is ideal for blade makers who demand a long-lasting, rust-resistant, and consistent steel that performs reliably under pressure.

The Julia Silver Fox HSS Blade is a high-performance circular saw waterjet cut precut, precision-made in Italy and tailored for serious blade makers.

• ✅ Material: High-Speed Steel (HSS)

Crafted exclusively for Renesance, this plate delivers consistent performance and clean edge retention—trusted by breeders and blade smiths alike.

The GLG Extreme Cobalt Co5 is a high-performance high-speed steel (HSS) circular blade designed for demanding industrial cutting—and an excellent premium material for gaff knives (tari) requiring superior heat resistance and edge stability.

Manufactured using Cobalt-enriched HSS (Co5 / M35 equivalent), this material contains approximately 5% cobalt, enhancing red hardness, wear resistance, and structural stability at elevated temperatures. The addition of cobalt improves the steel’s ability to maintain hardness even under intense friction, making it ideal for high-speed and high-stress cutting applications.

GLG’s EXTREME series further elevates performance through precision grinding and advanced surface treatment, resulting in smoother cutting action, longer blade life, and consistent performance across demanding conditions.

🔥 Why Co5 (Cobalt HSS) for Gaff Knives (Tari)?

• Superior heat resistance – maintains hardness even under extreme friction
• Enhanced edge retention – stays sharper longer than standard HSS
• Improved wear resistance – withstands repeated impact and use
• Higher red hardness – ideal for high-speed and aggressive applications
• Stable microstructure – consistent performance and reliability

Compared to standard DMo5 (M2), Co5 offers better heat performance and longer edge life, making it a preferred upgrade for users seeking stronger, longer-lasting gaff knives.

⚙️ Ideal for:

• High-performance gaff knives (tari)
• Competitive and professional use
• Applications requiring extended edge life and heat resistance

The Kinkelder KINS Green Vapor is a top-tier high-speed steel (HSS) material enhanced with Kinkelder’s proprietary Green Vapor coating — designed to reduce friction, improve heat resistance, and preserve edge integrity. Ideal for forging precision tari blades, it offers excellent grindability, consistent hardness, and a cleaner finish. Its coated surface minimizes oxidation and distortion during heat exposure, making it a reliable choice for breeders and makers seeking strength, consistency, and cutting-edge performance.
