12" Custom Handmade Damascus Steel Chef Knife – Forged Kitchen Knife with Resin Handle

This 12-inch custom handmade Damascus steel chef knife is a true work of art, crafted to deliver both exceptional performance and timeless beauty. With an overall length of 12 inches, it features a 7-inch razor-sharp Damascus blade and a 5-inch handle made from elegant resin scales, secured with brass pins and reinforced with strong epoxy for lifelong durability. Its balanced design ensures a comfortable grip, making it perfect for professional chefs, home cooks, or collectors seeking a premium quality knife.
The blade is hand forged from 1095 and 15N20 high carbon steel, folded into 512 true layers to create the stunning Damascus pattern that flows gracefully along the edge. Forged through hours of skilled craftsmanship, the blade provides a natural “saw-blade effect” at the microscopic level, allowing it to maintain sharpness long after ordinary knives have dulled. With expert heat treatment, the blade achieves a Rockwell hardness of 50–54 HRC along the edge and 42–45 HRC along the spine, ensuring durability, strength, and precision cutting.
Measuring 4 mm thick, the blade boasts flawless hand grinds on both sides, with the top side finished in a subtle false edge for added style. Without a leather sheath, this knife focuses entirely on its exceptional craftsmanship and cutting performance. A must-have tool for the kitchen, this handmade Damascus chef knife is designed to impress and built to last.
