Description
The High Grade
Damascus steel used for these blades consists of layers of low carbon
& high carbon (1095&15N20) mixture welded, forged and hammered
several times to obtain Up to 200 Layers. The hardness of these blades
is up to 56 to 58 HRC on the Rockwell scale providing sharp edges that
are designed for lots of use. Precision heat treating methods are
employed to provide the sharpest, most enduring edges available. Only
quality materials have been used to create this beautiful Knife. For the
collectors this knife is stylish and built to last. How to care for
your new knives: ~ Store in a dry place, moisture encourages rust.
Damascus is very easy to clean if rusted but is rust resistant. ~ After
use, wash and dry the blade & apply vegetable oil, or any food safe
lubricating oil. ~ Sometimes Damascus steel darkens with age. To
brighten up the blade, sand it lengthwise with a worn piece of sand
paper. This just hits the raised portions of the etched pattern and
makes the blade look brighter. No two items are ever identical; the item
you receive may be slightly different to the pictures shown. Damascus
steel is a refined method of forging steel where the anvil and the
hammer determine just what kind of knife is made each time. The use of
natural materials i.e., buffalo horn, stag horn, wood and camel bone
means that variations in color and slight imperfections may be present
but make each knife that much more unique.
