Damascus Steel Pocket Knife
This new Damascus Depot pocket knife features a 7.5 inch overall length with a 3.75 inch full tang blade made from 465 layer Damascus steel. The clip point blade includes a gut hook for field dressing and reaches a hardness of 56 to 58 HRC through heat treatment. A wood handle with three silver pins provides grip while the included leather sheath offers belt carry.
Field Dressing and Skinning Use
Hunters and outdoor users needing a compact skinning knife with a dedicated gut hook will find this blade suited to the task. The full tang construction adds strength for processing game while the twist pattern Damascus steel holds a working edge. Buyers who want a folding mechanism or a lighter everyday carry folder should look at a different style.
Care and Compatibility Checks
Damascus steel contains 1095 and 15N20 high carbon steel that can rust if not maintained properly. Never store the knife long term in the leather sheath because leather absorbs moisture and promotes corrosion. If rust appears use WD40 to remove it then oil the blade before returning it to the sheath.

Questions about this item
What blade length and tang style does this knife have?
The blade measures 3.75 inches and uses a full tang construction for strength and durability.
Does the 5 mm thick Damascus blade require special care to prevent rust?
Yes, the high carbon 1095 and 15N20 steel can rust; wipe it dry, apply light oil, and avoid long term storage in the leather sheath.
How can I verify the blade hardness is within the specified range?
The heat treated blade is rated at 56 to 58 HRC; a proper file test should show the steel resists marking at that hardness.
