KF Extreme 31.5 Heat-Treating Kiln with Deep Chamber for Long Blades
The Evenheat KF Extreme 31.5 Knife Kiln gives you the chamber length needed to heat treat large blades, tools, and specialty steels with accuracy and ease. With a full 31.5" depth, you can fit long chef knives, swords, or multiple smaller blades in a single run, making it well-suited for both hobbyists and professional makers.
This kiln fires up to 2200°F, so whether you’re working stainless, carbon steel, or specialty alloys, you’ll reach the exact temperatures your recipes call for. The single-phase design paired with advanced digital controls means you can set your heat cycles with confidence and focus more on your craft, not on managing temperature swings.
Built with firebrick insulation and heavy-duty construction, the KF Extreme 31.5 holds heat evenly across the chamber. That means smoother results, consistent hardness, and less stress when you pull your blades from the quench. If your work involves long, complex projects or regular runs of smaller knives, this kiln makes the process faster, more reliable, and more enjoyable.
