Care of a Damascus Steel

Damascus steel has a high carbon content which gives it a long-lasting edge. However, the carbon makes it susceptible to rust when it is subjected to moisture. To avoid this wash your knives in warm water with any standard dish soap and fully dry with a fresh towel. Once dry take a cloth or paper towel and coat the knife with oil. We recommend Mineral Oil as it is cheap, food-safe, and does not spoil. Any cooking oil will do the job short term however it is not recommended for long storage times due to spoiling.

If your knife ends up with some rust on it, don't worry! It's an easy fix!

On a fresh blade rust can form within minutes, and it can be a scary sight but don't lose hope yet! If rust appears, rub the blade down with apple cider vinegar or lemon juice, wash with warm soapy water, hand dry, then oil the blade as normal. Over time your knife will develop a patina and will become more lenient to moisture. High Carbon Damascus does require a bit more care than your grandmas bread knife, but the quality, performance, and user experience make it more than worth it!

Here's some quick tips for your reference.

-Wash in warm soapy water and dry immediately.

-Use mineral oil to coat the blade before storing.

-If you get rust, vinegar will fix it.

-Do not store knives in the leather roll for long periods of time, the leather can hold moisture against the blade. If you have to do it, apply a heavy coat of oil before storing.

    About Our Knives

    White Hills Knives is an American company that is dedicated to the creation of superior hunting knives. Our manufacturer's objective is to produce custom, high-quality, handmade knives at equitable prices.

    Our knives are all handmade, similar to the photo. However, there may be slight differences in color and patterns due to the use of natural materials. Each item is unique and considered an original because no two items are ever identical. This is because they are handmade and natural materials are never the same.

    Our handcrafted Damascus steel knives exude a ruggedly attractive aesthetic. It is noteworthy that no two blades are identical, as the process results in unique patterns that are visually captivating and intriguing. However, the knives' aesthetic appeal should not be misconstrued as a lack of durability, as Damascus knives are as robust as they are visually appealing and maintain their sharpness for longer periods than other materials.

    Our knives are crafted in Pakistan's renowned city of Wazirabad, which has been home to skilled knife artisans for centuries, who continue to uphold the tradition of performance and style.

    Our artisans still employ the traditional method of hammering red-hot steel against anvils to handcraft our knives, as we take pride in our toughness. The process of folding multiple iron billets requires a great deal of patience and hard work, but we relish the challenge of providing rugged individuals with a product that makes them feel at home.

    Our knives are designed to be a unique steel artwork that is a gift for the intrepid adventurers of the world. They epitomize endurance for nature enthusiasts who seek to explore life beyond the confines of their comfort zone, where there is no access to WiFi or skinny lattes.
