Case Damascus KnivesDamascus steels date back to the Crusades, and are named for the famous Syrian city where some of the first man made metals were traded publicly. Damascus steel is made by welding together multiple layers of hard and soft steel, which are then etched in acid. The acid attacks the hard and soft steels at different rates, and creates a visible pattern in the blade. This process also results in more flexibility and toughness, acting like serrations in the blade which aids in cutting. W.R. Case combines these unique blades, crafted by Devin and Rob Thomas in their acclaimed Nevada shop, with genuine India Stag handles which are unmatched in their rugged beauty, texture and color. The W.R. Case Stag Damascus knives are truly a perfect combination of function and art.
