A method of manufacturing a stainless steel fastener includes following operations. Firstly, a stainless steel blank is prepared and contains from 1 to 3.5 wt % molybdenum, from 10 to 16 wt % chromium, from 0.5 to 3.5 wt % nickel, from 0.05 to 0.3 wt % nitrogen, carbon which is not more than 0.2 wt %, iron, and other inevitable compositions. Initially, a steel crystalline structure of the blank is martensite whose hardness ranges from 230 to 350 HV. Then, the blank is annealed to transform a partial crystalline structure of the steel crystalline structure into ferrite. The annealed blank experiences a cutting operation, a head forming operation, and a thread forming operation sequentially. Thereafter, a heat treating operation is executed to transform the partial crystalline structure from ferrite into martensite to complete a stainless steel fastener whose hardness is increased and is at least 500 HV, which facilitates a direct drilling effect.
