What is Damascus Steel?

Damascus steel is a type of high-carbon steel known for its distinctive patterns and exceptional strength.

Originally, it was created using the wootz process in the Near East and was primarily used for swords and blades.

While the original wootz process has been lost, modern knifemakers and metallurgists have developed techniques to create similar patterns and properties in what is often referred to as “Damascus steel.”
