Fortune's Favor - 6in (150mm) Damascus Petty Culinary Knife

Notify me when this product is available:

“Fortune's Favor” 6in (150mm) Damascus petty knife. This knife boasts a durable wa-style octagonal polyurethane resin handle, filled with a violet resin from the blade toward the butt of the knife, where the color fades to black. Flecked through the handle is gold leaf flake. Purple to black with speckled gold, like a most beautiful sunset. The sunset motif is reflected in the Sunray folding pattern on the Damascus blade. Includes the sleek walnut saya shown.

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.⠀
