What is Damascus you ask?Da·mas·cus steel, noun, historical noun: Damascus steel Steel made with a wavy surface pattern produced by hammer-welding strips of steel and iron followed by repeated heating and forging, used chiefly for knife and sword blades. Such items were often marketed, but not necessarily made, in Damascus during the medieval period. Can have hundreds even thousands of layers of metal. If you see other "damascus" goods they are almost always not real. They are a metal fiber and resin made to look like Damascus. This is real hand forged Damascus.
