Damascus Steel - the only steel proud enough to have its own signature.
What is Damascus Steel?
Damascus Steel is actually steels with different attributes forged together.
In ancient times, people did not really understand different elements' effects on steel's attributes. Even if some outstanding minds did, they still couldn't adjust an alloy's composition, limited by the technology available.
On the subject of steel's attributes, for combat use, arguable the most important considerations are hardness and resilience. Normally these two don't come together (think about glass and gold). High-carbon steels are hard, but easily shattered, while low-carbon steels are the opposite.
And here's where Damascus Steel comes in. While exactly how ancient people forged it remains an mystery, Damascus Steel uses steels with different carbon compositions (a super-high carbon steel, 5%-12%, and an ultra low one, less than 0.5%), and forge them together.
And the result? You get both hardness and resilience.
What is "REAL Damascus Steel"?
The most easily recognizable part of Damascus Steel is its patterns. With modern technology, it is super easy to fake those patterns, by spraying some paint or carving some shapes on some really cheap steel. Here at KCC Edge, we don't do that. We respect the name Damascus Steel, forge Damascus Steel properly, and the patterns are there, naturally, authentically.
So why do you call it "signature", why not just "pattern"?
Much like your signature, it is your signature for a reason. Damascus Steel's patterns is natural, and it says something about Damascus Steel. Damascus Steel's pattern is almost like waves, or water flow, which also describes the Steel's attribute - sharp and tough, so that when you use it to cut through things, it feels as smooth as water flowing by; while also resilient like a river, in the sense that you cannot easily break a river in half.
It is almost Chinese philosophy in there.
"Under heaven nothing is more soft and yielding than water.
Yet for attacking the solid and strong, nothing is better;
It has no equal." - Lao Tsu, Tao Te Chine, Verse 78
What is "Layer", and why 250?
Remember what I said about ancient ways of forging Damascus Steel is lost? There are couple of modern ways of doing it. One of the ways is layer different steel together, melt, hammer, cut, repeat. Example: you have 2 different steels, repeat the whole process 8 times, that's 256 layers.
Why 250? Think about thread counts when you buy bedding stuff. The lower the count, the cheaper, the more linen-like. The higher the count, the more expensive, the more silk-like. For Damascus Steel, the more layers, the more resilient the blade, but also, more expensive, and less-recognizable patterns.
For this product, we don't think you'd go to combat with this, so you'd have enough blade resilience at 250 layers. Also, save you some money, and let you see the beautiful patterns easily.
