I've recently developed an interest in stainless steel damascus, primarily for its aesthetic appeal. Any other benefits that you folks are aware of?
I have a few knives made of stainless steel damascus. Apart from the striking patterns, they hold an edge well and are incredibly durable.
They are extremely tough and resistant to shattering. The patterns aren't just for show; they add strength to the product.
Agreed! But do keep in mind that the patterns can fade over time if not cared for properly. I also think the functionality of stainless steel damascus profoundly depends on the quality of craftsmanship.
Fantastic insights, thank you all! I'll definitely bear all this in mind when purchasing my next stainless steel damascus piece.
