Knife Notes

Know-how from our Sialkot workshop

Pro tip

Sharpen the recurve with a rod, not a flat stone

The inward curve of a recurved edge is out of reach of a flat bench stone, which only touches the high points. Use a round ceramic or diamond rod for the hollow section, holding the same angle you use elsewhere, and sweep a flat stone only along the belly towards the tip. A Damascus steel knife from Pakistan with a 23 cm blade like this one rewards that patience with an even edge from heel to point.

Did you know?

Filigree means thread and grain

The word filigree comes from the Italian filigrana, built from the Latin filum, thread, and granum, grain, because early filigree work combined fine twisted wire with tiny metal beads. The brass lattice banding this 15 cm walnut handle follows the same idea of open metalwork, turning a plain grip into ornament that frames the 23 cm Damascus blade.
