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 only wiping this blade material with a dry cloth and occasionally rubbing it with a drop of oil.
