Damascus steel folding knife

This hand forged folding knife measures 8 inches overall with a 3.5 inch Damascus steel blade and a 4.5 inch folded length. It features natural Ram Horn scales secured with mosaic pins and an engraved bird bolster. The blade uses 1095 and 15N20 high and low carbon steel hardened to 56 to 58 HRC. A brass liner lock and finger hole provide secure opening and lock up.

Build quality and daily carry

The twist pattern Damascus blade is forged for hardness and edge retention while the Ram Horn handle scales are blind pinned with screws and mosaic pins for extra strength. A thick cow hide leather sheath with a belt inserting stripe is included for carry. The liner lock mechanism engages firmly behind the blade tang during use. The finger hole allows one handed deployment without a thumb stud or flipper.

What to verify before ordering

Buyers must be at least 18 years old and confirm that folding knives of this blade length are legal to carry in their jurisdiction. High carbon Damascus steel requires regular maintenance; the blade must be cleaned and oiled after each use and never stored long term in the leather sheath to prevent rust. The supplier disclaims responsibility for injuries or customs delays on international orders.
