Sub-metallic strength and style

Each piece comes with a tungsten carbide carbon finish that is scratch resistant and nine times stronger than stainless steel. Its 4 micron surface boasts unrivalled mechanical properties for almost frictionless mechanisms that never needs to be maintained.

Made in small batches, these tend to sell out quite fast. If they are, join the mailing list for a heads up on the next release.

BENEATH THE SURFACE

Aesthetically, Black Steel rivals the exotic look of Damascus steel or titanium, with a sub-metallic lustre that reveals a glimmer of the steel beneath the surface.

But it doesn’t just catch the eye. Our Black Steel finish also serves a vital purpose in protecting your item for the long haul.

TUNGSTEN CARBIDE CARBON

It’s applied using a technology called "magnetron sputtering", which is as cool as it sounds and involves a deposition method usually reserved for luxury watches and military-grade tools, coating the metal surface with vaporised Tungsten Carbide Carbon.

3.5X HARDER THAN TITANIUM

The 3um thick surface has a Vickers hardness of 1200 VPN, 9x harder than stainless steel and 3.5x harder than titanium. The carbon layer also minimises surface friction to < 0.1, ensuring all mechanisms are silky smooth.
