Ricky-N.p.p 0 Posted August 27, 2007 Report Share Posted August 27, 2007 I am aware that dumascus in general is a verry good metal for a blade but not sure about the different grades, i am thinking of buying a blade, it is damascus steel is 150-200 layers of low carbon steel and high carbon steel. The hardness of the steel is 56 HRC. how dose this sound ? Quote Link to post
marko 30 Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 anything damascus has a keen edge and reliability but not cheap on price you wont go far wrong with this mate. Quote Link to post
Guest Scuba1 Posted August 28, 2007 Report Share Posted August 28, 2007 Just keep in mind, that carbon damascus steel is a material that need some looking after and it would not be a good idea to leave it in a damp sheath etc. After a wet day out, wipe it with a oily rag and store it out of the sheath in a dry place and if you look after it well, it will look after you for years to come. It is not a lazy man´s knife. HTH Michael Quote Link to post
