Powerful Blades with Unique Designs

Our Blades are hand-produced Damascus steel design welded in-house consolidating instrument steel and nickel device steel. Produced and pounded with layers of steel in the Damascus convention, this knife is complimented with a premium Western style handcrafted mahogany handle that extends to the full tang of the knife and is NSF certified for commercial kitchens and ergonomically welds to the hand for seamless use.

Inferior quality steel, bad grinds, blade chips easily, goes dull FAST and does not hold and edge to speak of. We believe this knife is Damascus chef knives made, probably by child labor, because it looks like a child made it. Blade wobbles and does not feel safe in the hand.

With the rubbing ferric chloride etches the matrix etches darker than but still not as dark as blade. It may had refinished the blades for his  study, employed Damascus pocket knife a superior etching technique that was able to etch the DET matrix of blade 10 darker and thus produce more distinct bands, leading to the conclusion that its damascene pattern was superior to blade.

Although some folks claim that alternating layers of steel provide some combination of hardness and ductility, we have not seen science to prove this yet and material science suggests that with modern Damascus kitchen knives blade making you are far better off choosing a single alloy with optimal ductility than using a laminate with all of the problems caused by structural weaknesses at the laminate interfaces.

When placed in an etching compound, the dissimilar metals will etch at different rates, bringing out the beautiful original Damascus steel was made with a different and very specific process (though similar-looking, which is why the modern definition arose) that precious few know how to achieve, and gave Damascus the reputation of near magically strong properties.
