Red Wood Scale & Damascus Bolster

This folding knife pairs a red-coloured wood handle with a Damascus bolster for a distinctive look. The handle is blind-mounted with four screws and a chrome pocket clip for secure carry. A brass liner lock and thumb pin provide reliable one-handed operation.

Cow Hide Leather Sheath Included

The knife ships with an extra-thick cow hide leather sheath fitted with a belt-insert stripe. The sheath protects the blade during transport and allows belt carry. Because leather can absorb moisture, the maker advises against long-term storage in the sheath to prevent rust on the high-carbon steel.

56 to 58 HRC Damascus Blade

The 4-inch blade is forged from 1095 and 15N20 high- and low-carbon steels in a twist pattern and heat-treated to 56–58 HRC. This hardness gives good edge retention but requires regular cleaning, oiling and dry storage to avoid corrosion. Buyers who want a stainless, maintenance-free blade should consider a different steel.

Questions about this item

Will the 1095 high-carbon Damascus blade need oiling to stop rust?

Yes. Clean and oil the blade after each use and never store it long-term in the leather sheath, which can trap moisture and cause rust.

Does the brass liner lock hold up under heavy daily cutting?

The lock is rated to 56–58 HRC hardness; sustained hard use can wear the brass surfaces faster than steel, so expect eventual lock slippage.

How warm does the handle get during prolonged cutting sessions?

The wood scales and Damascus bolster stay near ambient temperature; only the blade heats noticeably during extended use.
