Curly Fries of Steel - 6in Damascus Petty Culinary Knife

Notify me when this product is available:

“Curly Fries of Steel” 6in (150mm) damascus petty knife. Helton saved some metal chips from the CNC milling machine when we were facing some aluminum blocks. So yeah, it’s not really steel chips, but “Curly Fries of Aluminum” just doesn’t have the same ring to it. Anyways, I thought It might be cool to put them in a handle. Turned out even better than I expected!

The blade is made from VG10 core hardened to 60 HRC. Multiple layers of stainless are forged on both sides of the blade that protect the core and result in the damascus layer pattern. VG10 is a high hardness stainless that doesn’t require the maintenance or care of a carbon steel. VG10 blades should be sharpened with a water stone, synthetic stone, or diamond. Do not use a honing steel on this blade. The edge angle is sharpened to 17 degrees and then stropped to a super sharp finish. The blade is 6” (150 mm) long, with a convex surface grind.⠀
