Full Tang Damascus Chef Knife

This knife has more going for it than good looks. It’s crafted from swirling Damascus steel, with a brass bolster riveted into a pakka-wood handle. And it performs, too: Damascus blades are famously sharp, and the curve of the blade makes for precise slices and easy dicing.

Founded in 1992, family-owned Black Forge Knives creates unique, handmade blades for a variety of specialty and everyday uses. Each knife is made with precise craftsmanship and an eye toward design—and each one is built to last a lifetime.
