Generous Chamber Depth for Growing Shops
The Paragon KM24 Knife Making Kiln is built for bladesmiths, knifemakers, educators, and fabrication shops that need additional chamber length for longer blades, batch processing, and specialty metal components. With a 5.5" W x 24" D x 4.3" H chamber, the KM24 provides more capacity without stepping up to a full industrial furnace.
Bringing heat treating in-house gives makers complete control over normalization cycles, hardening temperatures, tempering schedules, soak times, and cooling profiles. The 24" depth comfortably handles large chef knives, swords, machetes, tooling, Damascus billets, and multiple blades at once — ideal for professional bladesmiths, growing workshops, and educational programs.
Included with every order
SENTINEL Touch Xpress touchscreen controller with Ramp-Hold programming, instruction manual, and 2-year limited warranty. Optional swing door configuration available.
