Becut is a patented stainless alloy with the addition of niobium to provide good toughness, edge retention, and wear resistance. It also offers excellent corrosion resistance and a fine-grained structure.

Niobium is typically used in minimal percentages in cutlery steels, but its addition has significant effects on the final properties. Essentially, niobium is added for reasons similar to vanadium: to form hard MC carbides, where M can refer to V, Nb, Ti, etc. Hard carbides can contribute to grain refinement, carbide structure refinement, and wear resistance.
