Genuine Damascus.
Not a Printed Pattern.
The DTC market is flooded with knives using cheap steel with printed wave patterns. Our Damascus is the genuine forging process — 67 layers of Japanese steel, folded and welded under heat and pressure. The ripple pattern is the steel. It is not printed, not etched, not cosmetic.
