STEEL

VG-10 67-LAYER DAMASCUS STEEL, HRC 62+

VG-10 is a particular type of stainless steel with a high carbon content; roughly 1% carbon, 1% molybednum, 15% chromium, .2% vanadium and 1.5% cobalt. All of these relatively small amounts of other metals give the VG-10 steel its unique properties, such as its ability to hold an edge and longer durability of the steel.

Damascus steel is made by forge-welding steel together to create a multi-layered, flowing pattern. The resulting steel is sharper, tougher, and resistant to shattering.

Our VG-10 Damascus Steel series uses VG-10 steel as a cutting core layer plus 66 layers of Damascus steel folded over it (33 layers on each side) for a total of 67 layers. The resulting blade is more durable and will hold an edge over a longer period of time.

 

VG-10 3-LAYER FORGED STEEL, HRC 60-62

Our VG-10 3 Layers Forged series uses VG-10 steel as a cutting core layer with 2 layers of a softer steel wrapped over it. The resulting blade is more durable and will hold an edge longer.

 

 

AUS-10 67-LAYER DAMASCUS STEEL, HRC 60+

AUS 10 stainless steel is comparable to 440C. It has more vanadium and less chromium than 440C, so it is slightly tougher. Our AUS-10 Damascus Series uses an AUS-10 core in the middle of the blade plus 67 layers of Damascus steel wrap outside to increase strength, durability, and sharpness.  

 

HAMMERED FINISH VG-10 DAMASCUS STEEL, HRC 62+
A hammered finish pattern on the surface of the blade gives the knife a beautiful aesthetic for a more unique look.This is our top of the line series that uses VG-10 67 Layer Damascus steel plus a hammered finish for a great combination.
