Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What makes AUS10 Damascus Steel different from regular stainless steel knives?

A: AUS10 Damascus Steel features a high-carbon Japanese steel core wrapped in 67 alternating layers of steel, resulting in exceptional edge retention, superior hardness (60±2 HRC), and excellent rust resistance. The layered construction also produces the knife's signature flowing Damascus pattern, making each blade visually unique.

Q: How should I care for my XINZUO Damascus Steel Santoku Knife?

A: Hand washing is recommended — avoid dishwashers, as harsh detergents can dull the blade and affect the Damascus finish. Dry promptly after washing, store in the included gift box or on a magnetic knife strip, and hone regularly with a ceramic or leather strop to maintain the 15° edge angle.
