 Sword Hardening Furnaces: Where the Strength of Metal Is Forged
Behind every sword lies a precise process, made up of technical choices and artisanal sensitivity. One of the most delicate and decisive stages is hardening the moment when metal reaches its highest expression of strength. To carry out this treatment properly, reliable tools are needed: equipment capable of maintaining stable temperatures, controlled timing, and most importantly, consistent results. That’s exactly why we developed our sword hardening furnaces.

These are not just high-temperature ovens, but systems specifically engineered to meet the needs of those working with fine metals, where even slight temperature deviations can mean the difference between an excellent blade and an average one. Hardening demands precision, control, and uniformity three qualities at the core of our FT650 model, one of the most trusted options in the artisanal and semi-industrial field of blade heat treatment.

The FT650 stands out for its durability and its ability to quickly reach and maintain high temperatures. Its treatment chamber is designed to distribute heat evenly, minimizing the risk of warping and ensuring a consistent hardening across the entire blade. Thanks to an intuitive digital control system, each phase of the thermal cycle can be managed with exceptional accuracy, leaving no room for error.

Anyone who works with swords knows that every piece has its own unique requirements. That’s why, in addition to our standard models, we also offer custom-built furnaces, specifically designed to accommodate different blade sizes, production volumes, or specialized alloys. We frequently collaborate with artisanal knife makers, manufacturers of historical replicas, martial arts equipment producers, and even stage and film prop designers. In each of these fields, a carefully designed furnace can make a real difference.

To harden a sword is not simply to "heat and cool" it it’s a transformation at the core of the material, altering the internal structure of the steel to give it the hardness needed to withstand stress, while preserving enough elasticity to avoid breakage. Our furnaces enable this transformation with the assurance of precise, repeatable control ideal for production environments where quality cannot be left to chance.
