Where to use Damascus Steel Billets / Bars

Damascus Steel Blank Billets are used in the manufacturing of knives, swords, and other cutting instruments.

Damascus steel blades are made of steel that has been folded and hammered until it is so fine that it can be drawn into a razor edge.

The making of Damascus steel bars is a process that involves folding and forging, which hardens the metal by creating layers of iron and carbon.

The process also creates a distinctive pattern on the surface.

This type of steel became popular in the Middle East in the 18th century and was used to make swords, knives, scissors, tools, and decorative objects.
