Damascus Knife Collection

Our Damascus knife collection showcases steel forged with ancient pattern-welding techniques from Syria and Japan. Modern versions layer multiple steel types creating distinctive wavy patterns across blades. Most collections use 67 to 100+ layers of alternating high-carbon and stainless steel. VG-10 cores provide exceptional edge retention surrounded by softer steel layers. Each blade displays unique fingerprint-like patterns through acid etching. Sets include chef knives, santoku blades, and utility pieces. Premium collections from Shun and Miyabi range from £300 to £1,200. Hand-finished edges achieve 15-degree sharpness angles.
