We called ourselves the “Emerald Empire Blade Collectors Association.” Long about the first of 1976, we modified our name to “Emerald Empire Knife Collectors.” I think this happened as most of the public had no idea what a “blade” was.

L’acier Damas est un assemblage de couches alternées de fer (ou acier doux) et d’acier dur par soudure de forge qui est étiré et plié à plusieurs reprises. Le nombre de couches et de pliages peut varier de plusieurs dizaines à plusieurs centaines, selon le rendu et les propriétés que l’on souhaite donner à la lame. Une fois révélé, l’acier Damas garde la mémoire du feu et du marteau. C’est une fascination sans fin que de voir la lumière jouer sur sa surface. Sa sensibilité lui donne des qualités organiques qui transcendent la surface polie. Damascus steel is a congregate of ferrous steel layers (soft steel) and hard steel. The layers are lengthened and folded many times. The number of layers can vary from a few dozens to hundreds depending upon the type of Damascus blade one wants. Once processed with an acid treatment, Damascus steel retains the imprint of fire and hammer: a never-ending fascination to observe the reflections of light play off the polished surface. Der Begriff Damaszener Stahl (auch Damast genannt) bezeichnet einen Werkstoff aus einer oder mehrer Eisen-/ Stahlsorten. Dieser lässt in poliertem oder geätztem Zustand eine klare Struktur aus mehreren, sich abwechselnden Lagen unterschiedlicher Ausgangsmaterialien erkennen. Die unterschiedlichen Lagen kommen durch Verschweißen des Schmiedestücks zustande, das mehrmals gestreckt und gefaltet wird.
