Gysinge™

Suitable for small to medium sized pieces. The pattern is surface intense and the effect will be strongest with a small bevel. Named after the Swedish village Gysinge.

Traditional Damascus

The traditional Damascus patterned steel is produced by welding two types of steel in typically seven layers. Then one forge out and fold the piece repeatedly until one gets over one hundred layers in their piece. Damasteel® holds the international patent to manufacture Damascus patterned steel via modern powder metallurgy, which is a method with many advantages. A product manufactured in our steel is stainless after hardening and tempering and our powder metallurgy made steel is also cleaner and has a very small amount of inclusions and impurities in comparison to conventional casted steel. Their blacksmiths forging technique and craftsmanship guarantees a Damascus patterned steel with unique durability and strength.

Powder Metallurgical Steel Manufacturing

Gas atomization is a process to manufacture high quality metal powders. During the gas atomization process, molten steel is atomized by inert gas jets into fine metal droplets, which cool down during their decent in the atomizing tower. Metal powders obtained by gas-atomization offer a perfectly spherical shape combined with a high level of cleanliness. After the atomization process, powders are collected in a capsule, which is sealed and then compacted by Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP). HIP is a process to densify gas-atomized metal powders, through the combination of high gas pressure and high temperature. The HIP process takes place in a HIP furnace where the gas pressure acts uniformly in all directions, hence providing isostatic properties and 100% densification. The semi-finished capsule is then further processed by forging and rolling into suitable dimensions for the required patterning process.

Pattering options

After the rolling or forging the patterns are finished off by either twisting and/or coining and will be visible after etching. Examples of twisted patterns are Dense Twist™ and Heimskringla™. Typical Damasteel® coined pattern designs includes, among others, Odins Eye™Ladder and Rose.

All Damasteel is sold by the inch and cut to order. You select your length via quantity! When placing your order, please, provide us with the best way to contact you. We are committed to your satisfaction, and getting your order to you as quickly as possible. All cancelations must be received promptly. Processed orders containing steel already cut-to-length can not be canceled.  Martensitic Damascus Steel consists of two different hardenable steel grades, welded together, in more than one hundred layers. The steel becomes stainless after heat treatment. It combines corrosion resistance with superior strength. An excellent steel for edge tools such as knives. Damasteel® is the best performing stainless Damascus patterned steel in the world using the latest gas-atomized PM technology with very high cleanliness. Forge to order according to your specific requirements.
