| 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. | |

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. | |
