WHITE DEER Damascus Steel Executive Knife With Cocobolo Wood Handle The beautifully crafted WHITE DEER Damascus Steel Executive Bowie Knife With Cocobolo Wood Handle was created by forge welding multiple layers of steels into a Solid block called a billet (15N20 &1095 High Carbon Tool Steels). The billet is folded and re-welded several times to produce several layers. Patterns are created by manipulating the steel during the forge welding process. When acid is added to the blade, it attacks the layers of hard and soft steels differently, highlighting the attractive layered pattern in the Steel. The combination of layered hard and soft steel creates blade flexibility, toughness and produces invisible serrations on the blade that aid cutting. The hardness of the Damascus steel is 55-60 HRC on Rockwell scale. The handle is full tang, made out of Cocobolo Wood, with brass spacers spanning the handle and a beautiful mosaic pic. The guard is made of genuine Damascus steel. This knife comes with a genuine leather sheath, with a belt loop on one end. This knife is a must have for any hunter or outdoors-man!Specifications: Overall Length: 10"Blade Length: 5.5"Handle Length: 5"Cocobolo Wood Handle with Brass Spacers, Mosaic Pin, Damascus Steel GuardIncludes Genuine Leather Sheath
