The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a component (21) from metal-containing powder. A paste is prepared by mixing at least a powder (11) comprising metal, a binder (12) in an amount of 2 to 8 weight % of the paste (10), and liquid (13), such as water, in an amount of 5 to 25 weight % of the paste (10). The paste is transferred to an extruder (31), and the paste is extruded into a green body (20) by using an extrusion pressure (P) of more than 50 bar. Then the green body (20) is dried and sintered or oxidized to obtain the final component.
