This is my first ever homemade damascus and I am very happy with how it came out! It is 1095 and 15N20 in a random pattern. It is a very light petty on the shorter side with a very tall heel and a slim tip making it a perfect go to in the kitchen. At home I tend to reach more for my knives in this size as they are just fantastic to control when cooking at a home scale. The handle is stabilized and dyed madrone with a canvas micarta bolster in a hexagonal shape.
Steel: 1095/15N20 Damascus
Hardness: 62-61 HRC
Length: 180 mm
Height at heel: 56 mm
Spine Thickness at Handle: 4 mm
