GLG Spain Extreme DMO5 315mm Whole Uncut

The GLG Extreme DMo5 is a premium high-speed steel (HSS) circular blade engineered for precision metal cutting—and now trusted as a superior base material for high-performance gaff knives (tari).

Manufactured using DMo5 (DIN 1.3343 / AISI M2), this steel combines tungsten, molybdenum, and vanadium alloys, delivering an ideal balance of hardness, toughness, and wear resistance. These elements form extremely hard carbides and a fine martensitic structure, allowing the blade to maintain cutting performance even under high heat and stress.

GLG’s EXTREME series further enhances this material with advanced coatings and precision manufacturing, resulting in improved durability, smoother cutting action, and longer service life.

🔥 Why DMo5 for Gaff Knives (Tari)?

• High hardness retention – maintains sharp edge longer during fights
• Excellent wear resistance – resists deformation and edge rounding
• Balanced toughness – reduces risk of chipping or breakage
• Heat stability – performs even under friction and impact
• Fine grain structure – allows precise sharpening and finishing

DMo5 is widely used for cutting steels up to medium hardness levels, proving its capability in demanding industrial applications—making it a reliable foundation for consistent, battle-ready gaff knives.

⚙️ Ideal for:

• Premium gaff knives (tari)
• Competition-grade blades
• Precision-cut and high-performance applications

The Kinkelder KIN’S Green Stainless Stabilizer, formerly known as Power NX, is a 1.8mm thick stainless-grade steel designed for crafting premium tari blades. Coated with advanced Titanium Carbonitride (TiCN), it offers superior hardness, lower friction, and excellent wear and oxidation resistance. Its green finish isn’t just for looks — it signifies enhanced performance under heat and stress. With a stainless core for corrosion resistance and a stable edge profile, this material is ideal for breeders who demand precision, consistency, and rust-free reliability.

Julia GrayShark HSS Circular Saw Blade - Premium Gaff Knife Material

• Superior HSS Material: Holds razor edge longer than standard carbon steel
• Precision Tooth Geometry: Optimized cutting pattern translates to perfect knife profiles
• Anti-Corrosion Gray Coating: Protects against rust and wear during conversion
• Consistent Quality: Uniform thickness ideal for gaff fabrication

The Kinkelder KINS Green Universal, formerly known as Fernox, is a top-grade high-speed steel (HSS) designed for high-performance tari blades. Available in 2.0mm and 2.5mm thickness, each blade features a 0.5mm web for better control and balance. The steel is enhanced with a Titanium Nitride (Ti-N) coating, giving it a distinct green color while improving wear resistance, reducing friction, and helping preserve hardness during heat-intensive grinding and brazing. A favorite among seasoned blade makers for its durability, grindability, and precision.

The STARK Blackface Dm05 WHOLE UNCUT is a high-performance precut made from HSS , designed for extreme wear resistance and edge retention. The BLUE coating helps reduce friction during processing, while the waterjet cutting process ensures the steel’s original hardness and grain structure remain intact. This precut is engineered for precision — ideal for crafting tough, high-grade tari blades, and is ready for garol brazing and final edge grinding.

The STARK Blackface Cobalt 5%s a high-performance blade made from cobalt-alloyed HSS (Co5%), designed for extreme wear resistance and edge retention. The black oxide coating helps reduce friction during processing, while the waterjet cutting process ensures the steel’s original hardness and grain structure remain intact.
