It is named after its birthplace, the Syrian city of Damascus, an ancient stronghold of patterned steel production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs common practice, a harder high carbon steel and a softer low carbon steel are repeatedly welded and folded. The high carbon steel ensures higher hardness, better temperability and greater edge retention, while the softer steel imparts greater flexibility and tensile strength. This procedure, which emerged at a time when steel qualities were often low and inconsistent, makes it possible to combine the positive attributes of different steel qualities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, the different shadings generated by the variable carbon content of the alternating layers engender strikingly beautiful patterns, such as the twisted motif called \u003ci\u003etwist Damascus\u003c\/i\u003e or \u003ci\u003eRose Damascus\u003c\/i\u003e pattern. Undoubtedly, these unusual patterns partly explain why inherent magical properties were attributed to Damascus steel blades of the Middle Ages. Such a Damascene sword blade is depicted, for example, as a bloody worm or a venomous snake in the \u003ci\u003eEdda\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDetails:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ehand-forged with 512 layers of Damascus steel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall length: approx. 24.8 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlade length: approx. 12 cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BTT","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63810286289245,"sku":"301220521","price":92.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0987\/1500\/9373\/files\/cuchillo-de-acero-de-damasco-en-blanco-0301220521-espadasymas.jpg?v=1773246908","url":"https:\/\/supervivenciaextrema.com\/en-eu\/products\/cuchillo-de-acero-de-damasco-en-blanco-0301220521","provider":"SupervivenciaExtrema","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
