Steel blades are commonly shaped by forging. German blades are created by heating single pieces of steel. The steel is then shaped while still hot using a hammer or press. Stock removal blades are shaped by grinding and removing metal. With both methods, after shaping, the steel must be heat treated. This involves heating the steel above its critical point, then quenching the blade to harden it. After hardening, the blade is tempered to remove stress resulting in a tougher blade.
