Abstract: A die for forging a toothed section of a gear rack of a steering device, including a first die part (9) having a first molding recess (11) for molding the toothing and a second die part (10) having a second molding recess (12), which has the shape of the back area of the gear rack opposite the toothing. The die parts (9, 10) can be moved toward each other in a closing direction (13) into an end position, in which the die parts have a distance (s) from each other, wherein a main cavity (14) is formed between the die parts (9, 10) in a region of the molding recesses (11, 12) of the die parts (9, 10), the main cavity being open on opposite sides to secondary cavities (16, 17), which lie in respective regions between the first and second die parts (9, 10).
