5 Piece Damascus Chef Knife Set, Full Tang Blade with Leather Roll

Sami blades forges this 5 piece set by hand, five full size blades between 7 and 8 inches, each on a 5 inch handle, so the longest runs 13 inches overall. It arrives ready to work, with a sharpening rod and a cloth in the roll alongside the knives.

Blade: Damascus Steel, Full Tang

High and low carbon steels are folded and forged together, then ground and etched so the layers read the full length. The tang runs the whole way through the handle, which is where the balance and the strength come from.

Handle: Bone

Every handle is a full 5 inches with the tang visible along its edge, so your grip and the balance stay the same whichever knife you pick up.
