Our genuine damascus blades are made of up to 67 layers of Japanese steel. We use a hardened steel core in combination with multiple layers of soft and hard steel on each side.
The alternation of steels is enhanced by the final application of a corrosive solution that reveals gorgeous patterns: pure nickel alloys are little affected by the solution and reveal a bright silver-grey color, unlike carbon steel alloys which appear darker, partially dissolved on the surface by the solution.
