The name is derived from the Syrian city of Damascus, which is considered the former stronghold and origin of Damascus steel production.\nTypically, a hard, high-carbon steel and a soft, low-carbon steel are combined through repeated forge welding and folding. The high-carbon steel provides greater hardness, better hardenability, and longer edge retention, while the softer steel gives the blade higher elasticity and greater fracture resistance. This technique, which emerged during a time of poor and inconsistent steel qualities, thus allows for the combination of the positive properties of different steels. Due to the varying colors with differing carbon content, impressive patterns of alternating layers also emerge, such as twisted, known as torsion damask, or rose damask. Not least because of these patterns, medieval Damascus blades were attributed an inherent magic. The Edda thus describes a damascened sword blade as a bloody worm or a poisonous snake.\n\nDetails:\n- Blade material: Damascus steel (Twist pattern)\n- Overall length: approx. 22.5 cm\n- Blade length: approx. 11.5 cm\n- Handle: approx. 11 cm, made of bone, bolster and pommel (incl. integrated lanyard hole) made of brass\n- Weight: approx. 220 g\n- Incl. leather lanyard and brown leather sheath","brand":"ALORIA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58389249425733,"sku":"81005151","price":65.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1062\/0715\/0405\/files\/Wikinger-Messer-Damaststahlklinge-Knochengriff-Lederscheide-ALORIA.jpg?v=1794699633","url":"https:\/\/aloria.de\/en\/products\/wikinger-messer-mit-klinge-aus-damaststahl-und-lederscheide","provider":"ALORIA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
