American Cutting Edge is a predominant supplier of meat skinning blades around the world. We supply skinning blades for all machines: Maja, Meyn, Townsend, Grasselli, Weber, Best & Donovan, Varlet, and Cretel.

While many meat skinning blades in the past were made of High Carbon Steel, we find today that our Premium Stainless Steel is normally the best choice for our customers. We do stock some meat skinning blades in High Carbon Steel but at only a slightly higher price, Premium Stainless Steel is a good value. We call this, our best blade our "G5" and we are getting rave reviews from it.

What makes a good meat skinning blade? As mentioned above, material selection is critical but also good, consistent heat treating is a must. We cryogenically harden our skinning blades to ensure a consistent metallurgical structure throughout the blade. Lastly, a keen bevel makes a real difference in the performance of meat skinning blades. We polish our final angles to a very fine RMS finish, to reduce loading of cut material as well as allow the blade to pass better through the meat. Additionally, this fine finish reduces the amounts of microscopic nicks in the cutting edge, offering a finer cut for a longer period of time.

Our meat skinning blades are packed 4 per sleeve in a protective plastic package although we can provide bulked packed blades at a slight savings. However, these blades are fine cutting instruments and care should always be taken to avoid any damage to the blades in transport or storage.
