Step V Steel Blades
VSTEEL
Armoursmith is pleased to be able to bring you a new premium product …. Step Steel!
Step Steel is a replacement steel that provides benefits that factory branded steel cannot match.
The first major benefit of Step Steel is the shape. Not only does it provide you with up to 10% more steel, but it’s shape provides maximum life for your steel by adding more steel at the toe and heel. Everyone has seen that “banana” effect on steel where there is no toe, no heel but ton’s of steel in the middle. Poor sharpening is not always to blame. It can be directly related to blade shape and proportion. Premature blade replacement is a waste of your time and your money!
The second major benefit is finish. Step believes that the sides of your steel and finish do matter. The side of the steel eventually becomes part of your edge. If there is a coarse finish with imperfections on your steel, what kind of edge with that give you? Step Steel is finished and sanded over and over until all imperfections are gone and all that is left is a smooth, flawless finish. They correct pitch and profile to make sure there is no flat spots or lumps along the steel. To go one further, for a few extra dollars you can upgrade to Step Steel V-Steel. This high performance steel upgrade is polished even more than regular step steel and has a “Mirror” finish. It is not plated in any way. With the V-Steel you are sure to get optimum glide and performance in every stride. (Not to mention it looks filthy!)
