Damascus is a mixture of 1095HC or 1084HC and 15N20 nickel carbon. You heat them up together and then fold the bar over and over to get the desired layers. This knife was folded to 512 layers. Then you burn the blade in acid, and it turns the nickel satin color and the high carbon turns blackish gray. This is how the layers are exposed to show the layers of the new steel created coined "Damascus".  All Damascus is acid-etched to show the layers. If you high polish the metal it will be shinny satin like all steels. Only after you burn the sides of the blade with acid do you see the layers of the two steels. After the knife is made, the handels are polished and an edge put on the blade. The high polishing buffs off the acid burned layer of the handle, and the blade edge is sharpened and the acid burned edge becomes satin. You can re-burn the tang of the blade near the handles and the edge of the blade and it will show the layers once more.

*Please note that the blade may rust if the Knife is kept in the sheath for long periods of time. Please store separate to the sheath and oil your knife often.

*The other items in the images do not come with the knife and are for description purposes only.

* The images are that of the knife. Being hand made they will have small marks etc in the leather which is a natural part of the process using natural materials.

*Couple of manufacturing marks on the handle as can be seen in a couple of the images which is an inherent part of working with the handle material.
