Abstract: On the basis of analyses of service conditions and properties requirements of wood chip cutting knives, an alloying scheme was formulated and a kind of new tool steel was developed. Parameters for its heat treating process and mechanical properties were systematically investigated and optimized. Satisfactory results were obtained on the knives in practice.
