Bring precision, durability, and artistry into your kitchen with this Custom Lot of 5 Handmade Hammered Damascus Steel Chef Knives. Designed for both professionals and culinary enthusiasts, each knife in this set measures 10.0" to 13.0" overall, making it ideal for chopping, slicing, dicing, and every demanding kitchen task. Our Damascus steel is 100% real, not an acid-etched imitation. Forged by combining 1095HC and 15N20 nickel carbon steel, the billet is folded over and over until it reaches 384 layers, resulting in the stunning Damascus patterns unique to each blade. After an acid etching process, the nickel takes on a satin finish while the high carbon turns a rich, blackish gray—revealing the bold and distinctive patterns Damascus steel is prized for.Each blade is oil tempered to 58–60 HRC for excellent hardness and long-lasting sharpness. The edges are carefully sharpened at 20 degrees, offering razor precision straight out of the box. Handles are hand-polished for a secure grip and elegant finish.Because these knives are 100% handmade without CNC machining, every piece is one of a kind, with slight handmade characteristics that add authenticity. This set is not only a practical kitchen tool but also a unique collector’s item.
