PA1041The PARAGON KM36 Double Barrel gives bladesmiths and metalworkers more room to work—literally. This kiln is ideal for larger blades, batch cycles, and setups requiring extra clearance or custom fixtures. It’s the next step for makers who want firebrick durability with double the layout options.
Owning your own heat treating kiln means full control over steel performance, without relying on external shops or compromising timelines. From soaking and ramping to quenching and refining, the KM36 Double Barrel lets you take on serious projects—and prove your results—right in your own workspace.
The KM36 Double Barrel takes the long-chamber advantage of the KM36 and expands it horizontally and vertically. This makes it ideal for larger blades, cleavers, short swords, or stacked batches. It’s everything bladesmiths love about the KM Base line, in a chamber built for more.
