This Damascus Carving knife is a quality example of AUS-10 knives. Why is AUS-10 steel an important factor for your kitchen knives? AUS-10 is a very good steel when it comes to edge sharpness through its high carbon content.
In this case, the AUS-10 makes up the primary cutting edge of the knife and offers a sharp edge that is very corrosion resistant and easy to sharpen. This means that you may have to sharpen the edge more often than other, harder edge options, but in the long run they will be easier to maintain without highly specialized tools.
With Genuine Japanese AUS-10 making up the blade core, the outer sections of the knife are made up of 66 additional layers of SUS430 Stainless Damascus Steel, for a total of 67 layers. The SUS430 adds additional resistance to acidic and other corrosive foods.
The outer steel layers also feature a beautiful Raindrop Hammered Damascus pattern off-set by an ergonomic handle made from North American Black Walnut and Synthetic Ox Bone. This makes the knife look good while allowing you to use it comfortably for a long time.
The handle swells near the middle of the grip in order to sit more evenly in the hand in a classic Western-style design. Any rough edges are dehorned to eliminate hotspots on the knife handle.
The 10 inch blade is a narrow design that is perfect for large boneless meats. Hams, roasts, and the occasional lamb leg all need long, meat oriented blades like this carving knife. This is a straight, narrow option that will glide through meat before and after cooking with the proper technique.
This Damascus Steel Carving knife just might become one of your favorite kitchen knives, if not your favorite kitchen knife when it comes to large cuts of meat!
