Damascus steel has been in use for many centuries, but rarely in kitchen knives. This Damascus is a little unusual with a center core of VG-10, a Vanadium, Cobalt, Molybdenum, high quality stainless knife steel at 61 Rc. That core is then laminated with 32 layers (16 on each side) of 410+nickel stainless producing a stainless Damascus. The bolsters and butt cap are engraveable 416 stainless. The handles are black laminated Pakka Wood. Individual knives are Gift Boxed.
This is Goldie's choice as the most useful of all kitchen knives. German or French cook's knife style blade measures 6-3/8" long and 1" wide at the widest point. Damascus clad super steel in the shape of German or French cook's knife. Weighs only 2.8 oz. Made in Japan.
Suggested retail $131.00.
