Abstract
The disclosure provides a method of manufacturing a cutting blade for an agricultural implement. The method includes forming the cutting blade to define a final shape having an exterior surface. The cutting blade is treated with a surface diffusion hardening process to form a surface hardened layer disposed over a core layer. The surface hardened layer is very thin, approximately 0.1 mm, and exhibits an apparent hardness equal to or greater than 1000 HV. After the surface diffusion hardening process, the cutting blade is treated with a through hardening process, such that the core layer exhibits a Rockwell Hardness C Scale value between the range of thirty five (35) and fifty five (55).
