🔹 Blade Quality & Craftsmanship

Each blade is individually hand-forged by combining 1075 and 15N20 steels, repeatedly folded to produce a striking, high-layer Damascus pattern.

Multi-stage artisan process includes:

- Hand welding, folding & forging

- Normalizing, profiling & annealing

- Bevel grinding & surface finishing

- Polishing, buffing & acid etching

- Final sharpening & dual-stage inspection

Heat-treated to HRC 58+ for:

- ~30% greater toughness

- Superior edge retention

- Increased durability and long-term performance

⚠ Note: Damascus blades cannot be laser engraved, as engraving weakens the layered steel structure.
