Damascus steel blades are hand forged in the painstaking tradition perfected over 2,000 years ago. It is a process that reaches perfection in the talented hands of the Boker master craftsman, whose keen eye and sharp skill give birth to blades of exquisite metallic artistry, each composed of steel thirty seven layers thick, each as unique as a fingerprint. This 3" blade is a work of art consisting of 37 separate layers of Damascus steel. The handle features exotic burl wood, with nested stainless steel liners. No pocket clip. Overall length 7 1/2".
