Damascus is a scam? Hmmm... makes me wonder if 1095 a scam when 52100 is a better, readily available steel? I can get Japanese white #2 sharper than most other steels; are the other steels a scam?
Love me some damascus and have used it for years in a commercial kitchen.
Here are some screaming chef knives; I would venture these are sharper and cut better than most people's mono-steel kitchen knives
I have bought damascus slabs from steel makers (Robert Eggerling my favorite) and sent them around the world to be made into knives.
Some of the damascus bars sent to makers
And here's a bar of scam that went to Thailand and the knife; cuts great!
And also a bar that went to Brasil and the knife, quite sharp!
And also little knife i bought out of Robert Eggerling's pocket, his personal EDC! He used it everyday; don't think he thought it was a scam...
And lastly knives like this just wouldn't have the same impact without this beautiful steel!
Yep, love me some damascus!
