Blade steel: Damascus (hardness 62 HRC)
The blade is made of Damascus steel, characterized by high strength, unique wavy pattern and outstanding working qualities. The hardness at 62 HRC provides excellent wear resistance β the knife keeps sharpening for a long time, allowing you to work with dense materials and perform precise cuts. Damascus is famous for its high strength and is able to withstand heavy loads when used correctly. However, it is worth remembering that Damascus steel requires timely care: after contact with moisture and products, it must be wiped dry, since, despite its strength, it is prone to corrosion with prolonged exposure to water.
Handle: Black hornbeam
The lining material β black hornbeam β is the choice for true connoisseurs. Hornbeam wood is known for its density, resistance to deformation, and pleasant velvety tactile feel. This handle does not slip even in a wet hand, providing a secure grip under all operating conditions. Hornbeam tolerates temperature fluctuations well, does not crack and retains a presentable appearance for a long time.
