The blade length gives you room to slice and dice larger fruit and vegetables, and it also cuts cheese, sausage and bread. Its 5-layer AUS-10 Damascus steel blade has a stonewash finish and is paired with a stainless steel handle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBlade and steel\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe blade is made from \u003cstrong\u003eAUS-10 Damascus steel\u003c\/strong\u003e built up in \u003cstrong\u003e5 layers\u003c\/strong\u003e and hardened to \u003cstrong\u003e59–61 HRC\u003c\/strong\u003e. This hardness helps the edge stay keen through daily cutting, and a whetstone brings it back when it needs sharpening. A hard edge asks for a little care in return: leave bones to a SAMURA cleaver and frozen food to a double-sided saw knife with a serrated blade.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003edouble-bevel edge\u003c\/strong\u003e is sharpened by hand and ground on both sides, which makes it straightforward to maintain on a whetstone. The \u003cstrong\u003estonewash finish\u003c\/strong\u003e gives the blade a matte surface that helps to hide scratches and wear over time and to reduce the appearance of fingerprints.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandle and balance\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe handle is made of \u003cstrong\u003estainless steel\u003c\/strong\u003e with the same stonewash finish as the blade. The textured steel complements the stonewashed blade and gives the knife an all-metal look.

Wash it by hand with non-abrasive materials and wipe it dry; a dishwasher is not recommended, and do not leave it in the sink for long. Cut on wooden or plastic boards, never on glass, and store the knife in a brush block or knife holder where the blade does not touch metal items. Use a honing rod between sharpenings and resharpen on a whetstone at the original factory bevel angle of 15–17°.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Artefact series\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/artefact\"\u003eArtefact collection\u003c\/a\u003e pairs a prehistoric look with modern blade quality, inspired by the minimalism of humanity's earliest tools.
