Questions & answers

Buying a Damascus blank: common questions

What does this Damascus blade blank cost in Pakistan?

The unit price, in rupees (PKR) for visitors in Pakistan, sits at the top of the page. Knife-making suppliers and workshops buying blanks in quantity pay less per piece; send us your numbers on WhatsApp or by email. Blanks can be combined with finished knives in one order.

Are Damascus knives from Pakistan any good?

Pakistan has a long-standing reputation for hand-forged Damascus, and a blank lets you inspect the steel with nothing hidden. Check that the pattern runs continuously into the fuller and out to both edges, with no open seams or dark inclusions. The tang is bare too, so you can follow the layers along its whole 12 cm length.

What comes in the package?

The 28.4 cm blade blank, a set of mounting rivets and a leather case. Handle scales are yours to choose, which is the whole appeal for a maker.

Made in Sialkot

Forge-welded billet to finished blank

Pattern-welded Damascus starts as a stack of two contrasting steels, heated and hammer-welded into one billet, then drawn out, folded or twisted and welded again until the layers number in the dozens or hundreds. The billet is forged to a dagger profile, the central fuller is ground in, and the blade is hardened, polished and etched in acid, which darkens the layers at different rates and reveals the pattern.

A Pakistani Damascus knife sold as a blank stops there, leaving the wavy 12 cm tang bare, with its mounting holes ready for the maker's own scales. Whoever finishes it decides whether it becomes a working piece or a luxury dagger with exotic wood, horn or bone.
