Unique Performance

Damascus steel is both a material and a process where different types of steel are combined into a beautiful, hardened blade. Damascus steel is made by forge welding two different types of steel, usually one high carbon and one low carbon.

This steel is layered together to form flat plates, heated, folded and hammered flat to get more layers over and over again. Sometimes forging involves incorporating a drilling technique, where holes of different depths are drilled into the steel during the process, creating the effect of a raindrop on the blade.

The resulting steel is dipped in acid to reveal the fine layers created during forging that give Damascus its unique look. Many knife makers prefer to use Damascus steels because of the aesthetics it posses and the fact that your knife’s blade edge will not wear or dull as quickly as ordinary Stainless Steel knives do

Advantages of Damascus Steel

Our Damascus knives are made with 67 layers and some of the advantages of Damascus steel are:

They have a longer lasting edge
They have very nice patterns
They are master chef recommended

As mentioned above, Damascus steel is typically forged from the layering of two different steels, a low-carbon steel and a high-carbon steel. The reason this is beneficial is that either alone wouldn’t make a great blade. High carbon steel is hard and can hold a very fine edge, but it is also brittle and easy to chip and break. Low carbon steel is soft, does not last as long, but has a lot more flexibility and does not splinter as easily.

By layering these two types of steel, the properties of both are brought together. The result is steel that is hard enough and flexible enough to keep a sharp blade edge without chipping.

I love these knives!! Bought one not knowing what to expect and after 3 months of daily use still not having to sharpen it I had to get two more!! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a great and super sharp knife.

I own 3 taco trucks and use Karen's Damascus knives for daily operations. They look great and are perfect for chopping meat and veggies. Have to say if you are a chef you will love these.

I'm a full time student so don't have much time to cook. I purchased a cleaver from Karen's and it makes cooking a lot easier, it's sharp and will go through meat no problem. Will buy again.

We own 2 restaurants and use the butcher high-carbon steel at both locations, both I and my cooks love the quality and ease to use, give them a try!
