Hand-Forged Damascus Fillet Knife

This 13-inch hand-forged fillet knife features a 7.5-inch Damascus steel blade created from 1095 and 15N20 high and low carbon steel. The blade reaches a hardness of 56 to 58 HRC through heat treatment. It is built for kitchen, chef, and steak knife tasks requiring a long, sharp edge.

Camel Bone Handle With Brass Bolster

The 5-inch handle uses black camel bone with a brass bolster and includes two brass pins plus a mosaic pin for structural strength. The supplier notes the overall length reaches 14 inches with a 9-inch cutting edge. No sheath is included, so separate blade protection must be sourced.

High Carbon Steel Care Requirements

Damascus and 1095 high carbon steel will rust if not maintained properly. The supplier advises cleaning the blade after every use and applying cooking oil or wax before storage. WD-40 can remove accidental rust, and long-term storage in leather sheaths should be avoided because leather absorbs moisture.

Questions about this item

How often should I oil the 1095 and 15N20 Damascus blade to prevent rust?

Clean the blade after every use and apply cooking oil or wax before storing. The high-carbon 1095 layer will rust quickly if moisture remains, so daily oiling during regular use is the safe habit.

Will the 56 to 58 HRC edge hold up to daily filleting on a cutting board?

The 56–58 HRC hardness gives good edge retention for fish and soft proteins, but the blade will dull faster if used against bone, frozen food or hard plastic boards. A ceramic honing rod realigns the edge between sessions.

Does the camel bone handle with brass bolster get slippery when wet for long periods?

The black camel bone scales and brass bolster stay grippy when damp, but prolonged soaking can swell the bone. Rinse, dry immediately and wipe with a light coat of oil to keep the handle stable during all-day prep.
