12" Professional Handmade Damascus Steel Chef Kitchen Knife with Hard Wood Handle

This 12-inch Professional Handmade Damascus Steel Chef Knife is a true masterpiece of craftsmanship, combining beauty, durability, and superior cutting performance. With an overall length of 12 inches, the knife features a 7-inch Damascus steel blade and a 5-inch handle crafted from beautiful hard wood, reinforced with brass pins and a handmade steel bolster for strength and long-lasting use. Expertly hand forged from 1095 and 15N20 high carbon steel, the blade is constructed with 512 true layers, creating a striking flowing pattern unique to Damascus craftsmanship. At 4 mm thick, the blade delivers outstanding balance and resilience, with hand grinds on both sides and a sleek false edge on the top. The Rockwell hardness measures 50–54 HRC along the edge for exceptional sharpness and edge retention, while the spine registers 42–45 HRC for flexibility and durability. The unique Damascus layering produces a microscopic saw-blade effect, allowing the knife to remain razor sharp longer than ordinary blades. Each knife is 100% handmade, ensuring that every piece is truly one of a kind. Please note that this knife comes without a leather sheath. Ideal for professional chefs, cooking enthusiasts, and collectors, this handmade Damascus knife is not only a functional kitchen essential but also a work of art.
