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.

All measurements approximate; hand-forged pieces may vary slightly.

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.

Add free engraving with the option above — up to 20 characters on the blade, or engrave the leather sheath. Adds 2 business days. Engraved pieces are final sale. For any other engraving request, email us at info@northboundblade.com.

From the forge

About this piece

Five Damascus blades finished with two-tone black-and-rosewood handles and signature brass tri-dot rivets.

Our most detailed handle work: a two-tone grip in matte black composite and rosewood, separated by a hairline red spacer and finished with a signature brass tri-dot rivet set into each handle. The five-piece lineup covers the full prep line — including a serrated bread knife and a rounded santoku-style blade alongside the chef's knives.

What's in the set:

  • Slicer — 8.2" blade, 13.7" overall
  • Large Chef's Knife — 6.5" blade, 11.9" overall
  • Cleaver-Style Chopper — 6.3" blade, 11.6" overall
  • Small Chef's Knife — 6" blade, 10.8" overall
  • Utility Knife — 4.6" blade, 9.7" overall

The details: Damascus steel (58–62 HRC), forged and hand-finished, full tang construction. Two-tone black composite and rosewood handle with brass tri-dot rivets. Hand wash, dry immediately, light coat of food-grade oil.

A gift worth giving: The most detailed handle work in the collection — a strong pick for the cook or collector who notices the small stuff, wrapped up for a birthday, anniversary, or holiday gift.

Every piece leaves the forge ready for a lifetime of use — our Knife Care guide covers the few simple habits that keep a hand-forged edge that way.

FAQ

Is this dishwasher safe? No — hand wash only, dry immediately, and apply a light coat of food-grade oil to protect the Damascus pattern.

What does "full tang" mean, and why does it matter? The blade steel runs the full length of the handle in one solid piece rather than a separate tang inserted into the handle — it's what serious cooks and collectors look for, since it means better balance and a knife that won't loosen at the handle over years of use.

Does the Damascus pattern vary between sets? Yes — every blade is folded and forged by hand, so the wave pattern on your set is unique to that piece.

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.
