| DAMASCUS
STEEL & SILVER INLAY |
|
Damascus
steel, properly made, is one of the finest cutting tool materials.
This quality stems from the use of two or more types of steel,
each having it's own traits and grades of harden ability, toughness,
abrasion resistance, etc. Once combined into multiple alternating
layers, heat treated and tempered, the final product exhibits
a strength, toughness and sharpness that cannot compare with
other single steel blades.

Collectors'
Items
We have been fortunate to meet a group of artisans who specialise
in the ancient art of metal inlay work
known as damascening. In India this craft is known as bidri
and involves inlaying silver or gold wire into grooves etched
on the
metallic surface that has been blackened by chemicals. This
process brings out the designs, which stand out conspicuously
against the jet black surface. In conditions that are cramped,
and with a minimal set of tools, these skillful craftsmen are
able to
create intricate designs on the weapon 'blanks', that are then
finished and polished.
Each item is a unique work of art.
