Damascus steel hand forged with combinations of 1095 High Carbon Steel and 15N20 forming over 1000+ layers. We oil quench and temper to a hardness of 57-58 Rockwell C. Some of the many Damascus steel advantages include the following: Blade edge resistance from the more rigid steel, micro serrations from the alternating layers, ductility from the 15N20.

Maintenance Recommendations:

- Store in a dry environment and NOT in the sheath for an extended period to prevent rust.

- Oil or use Flitz polish to keep the shine and prevent the blade from rusting

- To sharpen, use 22 - 25 deg angles or more delicate grit stones to hone the edge
