Functions
1) Large blade

For so-called "wild damascus", layers of hard and tough steel are used, which are placed on top of each other and fire-welded. Whether the desired pattern has been achieved only becomes apparent after final etching. The process therefore remains exciting until the very end.
In contrast to industrial production, every single Damascus knife made in this way is a unique piece with a very individual touch. The POSTHORN model was presented in Messer Magazin number 3 in 2008. Too small to blow into, too sharp not to cut yourself.
