Damascus Blades Explained
At the core of our Damascus blades is VG-10 steel — with a staggering Rockwell hardness of 60-63, offering optimum performance in sharpness and edge retention. The VG-10 center is protected (sandwiched) with 33 layers of stainless steel on each side, for a total of 67 layers. Some of our blades feature 73, 89, or 103 layers — among the very best in the world for kitchen knives.
Damascus blade patterns provide a non-stick surface, allowing for buttery smooth cuts. Each blade is the result of 40 different processes and 180 hours of grinding. Forging the layers requires 3 different kinds of steel, continuous welding, continuous layering, and forging — a true testament to the craft.
