12" Handmade Damascus Steel Professional Chef Knife – Hardwood Handle, 512 Layers, Hand-Forged Kitchen Knife

This 12-inch handmade Damascus steel chef knife is a premium tool designed for both professional chefs and passionate home cooks. Carefully crafted with precision and artistry, it combines exceptional sharpness, balance, and durability.
The knife features an overall length of approximately 12 inches, with a 7-inch razor-sharp Damascus blade and a 5-inch comfortable hardwood handle, accented with brass pins and a handmade steel bolster for added strength and elegance. The blade is forged from 1095 and 15N20 high carbon steel with 512 true layers, creating a stunning flowing pattern that extends seamlessly to the cutting edge.
Each blade undergoes hours of forging, giving it a unique pattern and ensuring the “saw-blade effect” at a microscopic level, allowing superior cutting performance long after other knives become dull. With a hardness rating of 50–54 HRC along the edge and 42–45 HRC along the spine, the blade delivers an excellent balance of sharpness and resilience. The 4 mm thick spine and false top edge enhance its durability and precision.
This knife does not come with a leather sheath. Hand-forged and built to last, it is not only a practical kitchen essential but also an exquisite collectible piece. Perfect for kitchen use, camping, and even hunting, this chef knife embodies true craftsmanship and premium quality.
