Hammer forged Damascus Dagger Knife with 8” Double Edge Serrated Blade, Sawback Spine, Brass Guard, Rosewood Handle (Full Tang Fixed Blade)

This handmade dagger knife from JW SteelCrafts combines traditional dagger geometry with tactical sawback detailing and Damascus-style forged blade construction. The blade features an 8-inch double-edge serrated design on both sides, delivering balanced cutting performance and strong control in hand.

The layered Damascus-style pattern reflects forged steel working methods, creating visible grain across the blade surface while improving strength and durability. The symmetrical double-edge profile improves balance, making it suitable for controlled precision work.

The sawback spine adds tactical character and functional utility while maintaining structural strength along the blade spine. This design enhances grip handling and reinforces the knife’s rugged build.

A solid brass guard sits between blade and handle, protecting the hand and adding structural stability. The rosewood handle is shaped for ergonomic grip comfort, supported by brass pins for reinforced durability. At the rear of the handle, a lanyard hole allows secure hanging, carry options, and storage versatility.

Full tang construction runs the steel through the entire handle, ensuring long-term strength, balance, and durability under repeated use.

Product Care for JW SteelCrafts Hand-Forged Products

To ensure the longevity and beauty of your hand-forged JW SteelCrafts products, follow these essential care instructions:

1. Regular Cleaning
   Wipe your knives, swords, axes, and rings with a soft cloth to remove dust and debris. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a non-abrasive cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasives that could damage the steel’s finish.
2. Dry Thoroughly
   After cleaning, ensure your product is completely dried. This helps prevent water spots, rust, or corrosion, particularly on blades and steel surfaces exposed to moisture.
3. Proper Storage
   Store your hand-forged products in a dry, cool place to prevent oxidation or rust. For long-term storage, consider applying a thin layer of oil (e.g., mineral oil or gun oil) to the metal surfaces, or using a rust inhibitor. When storing knives and swords, keep them in protective sheaths or pouches to prevent contact with other materials.
4. Avoid Impact
   While designed for strength and durability, avoid dropping or striking your steel products against hard surfaces. This can cause damage to the blade, edge, or overall integrity of the piece.
5. Edge Maintenance (For Knives & Swords)
   Periodically sharpen the blades to maintain their cutting edge. Use a proper sharpening stone or take your product to a professional for maintenance. Always sharpen in the correct direction to preserve the blade’s integrity.
6. Routine Inspection
   Regularly inspect your products for any signs of wear, rust, or damage. If you notice any issues, reach out to us for maintenance, restoration, or repair services.

By following these care instructions, your JW SteelCrafts products will retain their craftsmanship, functionality, and beauty for years to come.
