Damascus steel
Material information:
The term Damascus steel refers to a material consisting of one or more types of iron or steel. The different layers are beautifully highlighted by processing with various polishes and etchings. The manufacturer can influence the toughness and hardness of the steel by using different materials. Blades made of Damascus steel are once again very popular due to their decorative pattern. In principle, it can be said that the more layers, the more pronounced the pattern.
Care instructions: Processing, especially with etching agents, can impair the rust-preventing properties of the base steel. We therefore recommend that this blade material is only wiped with a dry cloth and occasionally rubbed with a drop of oil.
Information about the blade shape:
Clip point blade (
) Theclip point blade is one of the most common blade shapes. With this blade shape, the design means that approximately the front third of the blade looks as if it has been cut off. It often has a slight curve. This blade shape is primarily designed to save weight and the blade tip tends to be pointed.
