Types of Damascus Knives

There are a few different types of Damascus steel knives that you can purchase. We’ll go over each one below.

Damascus Fixed Blade Knives

The most popular type of Damascus knife is the fixed blade knife. This is because it is the most durable and has the most extended lifespan.

Because of its durability, a fixed blade knife is perfect for outdoor activities such as camping, hiking, and hunting. The knife can also be used for everyday tasks such as cutting vegetables or opening boxes.

Damascus Folding Knives

Another popular type of Damascus knife is the folding knife. This type of knife has a retractable blade that can be folded into the handle. This makes it convenient to carry around and easy to store. While a folding knife is usually less durable than a fixed blade knife, if it is well constructed, these knives can be as rigid as fixed knives.

Damascus Pocket Knives

Damascus Pocket knives are the smallest type of Damascus knife that can be easily carried in your pocket. Damascus Pocket knives are perfect for everyday tasks such as opening letters, cutting cords or shaving wood. They are also great for outdoor activities such as camping and hiking.
