Experience the epitome of precision, safety, and reliability with the Hot Shot 18K, an oven crafted in collaboration with esteemed blacksmiths and knife makers. Get your perfect blade and be safe every time you turn on your oven with cool to touch technology, side elements and long chamber (18”). We know most knife makers are hobbyists working out of their own shop or garage so Hot Shot designed an oven that was cool to the touch, a removable door for easy access in and out and all of the essentials built in with no added up charge; solid state relay, cooling fans, alarm and door switch.
The side elements allow for even heat distribution throughout the oven so you never have to worry about hot or cold spots! The icing on the cake…. our oven gets up to temp fast! The 120V option gets up to 2000F in 50 minutes and the 240V option in 25 minutes! Wow! Add on an Argon Gas Kit to help eliminate scaling on the surface of the steel!
Don't forget to add a furniture kit. Includes: (4) 1"x 3" posts and a 6.25"x 17.5" shelf.
