Ensemble de 5 couteaux de chef en acier Damas Shadowhorn
Damascus Steel · 58 to 62 HRC
Steel & Hardness
Blade steel: Damascus Steel
Hardness: 58 to 62 HRC (Rockwell scale)
Hand-forged layered steel folded to reveal a distinctive flowing wave pattern — no two blades are alike. Prized for its hard cutting edge and excellent edge retention. Hand wash, dry immediately, and apply a light coat of food-grade oil to protect the etched pattern.

Care & Maintenance
Hand wash only with warm water and mild soap, and dry immediately — never leave a blade soaking or run it through a dishwasher. Wipe on a light coat of food-grade mineral oil after use to protect the steel, and store it dry in a sheath, knife roll, or on a magnetic strip. A few seconds of care after each use keeps a hand-forged edge true for decades.

From the forge
About this piece
Cinq lames Damas forgées à la main — dont un large hachoir de style couperet — insérées dans des manches en corne de buffle foncée et finies avec des rivets en laiton, le tout roulé dans un étui de transport en cuir cousu.
Une palette saisissante, aux couleurs sombres : le grain naturel de la corne passe du charbon de bois profond à l'ambre chaud sous la lumière, donnant à chaque manche son propre caractère. Conçus pour le travail quotidien en cuisine, de la découpe délicate au hachage plus intense.
Chaque pièce quitte la forge prête pour une vie d'utilisation — notre guide d'entretien des couteaux couvre les quelques habitudes simples qui permettent de maintenir un tranchant forgé à la main dans cet état.
01 — Forged
Shaped at the anvil
Bar stock is heated and hammered to shape by hand — every bevel drawn out at the anvil, never stamped from a sheet.
02 — Tempered
Hardened true
Each blade is hardened and tempered in controlled cycles, balancing a keen, hard edge with a resilient spine.
03 — Finished
Fitted & inspected
Ground, polished and fitted with its handle, then inspected edge to pommel before it ever leaves the forge.
