CUSTOM DAMASCUS BLADE FOLDING/POCKET KNIFE
True hand forged Damascus steel
Detailed Bone and Brass Handle
Damascus steel blades are created by forge welding multiple layers of various steels into a solid block called a billet.
The billet is then folded and re-welded many times to create multiple layers and patterns.
When acid is applied to the blade, it attacks the layers of hard and soft steels differently, highlighting the attractive layered patterns in the steel.
The combination of layered hard and soft steels creates blade flexibility, hardness and durability and produces invisible serrations on the cutting edge that aid in cutting.
The Damascus blade of this knife has been hand forged from 1095 and 15N20 high carbon steels, resulting in 416 layers and a twist pattern.
The extra thick 4mm blade has a fingernail grip and detailed hand file work on the spine.
The cutting edge was heat treated to attain a hardness of 58-60 on the Rockwell scale and is sharpened to an almost razor edge.
The handle is constructed from bone and brass, with red fiber spacers and brass pins.
Intricate file work is visible on the spine and all the way around the handle.
