PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
This Damascus kitchen knife set gives you seven purpose-built knives for complete daily kitchen prep. Blade sizes run from 8 inches on the paring knife up to 13 inches on the cleaver. Every blade is forged from layered 1095 high-carbon steel and 15N20 nickel alloy, hardened to 58–60 HRC. Every handle combines cream bone scales with dark rosewood spacer blocks and silver pins. No bolster. No storage included. Engraving available on request.
This is the only 7-piece Damascus kitchen knife set at JW Steel Crafts with cream bone and rosewood handles and a Cleaver, Gyuto, Santoku, Bunka, Utility, and Paring configuration at 58–60 HRC.
The History Behind This Blade
Japanese kitchen knife culture developed distinct blade profiles for every cutting task — the gyuto for daily prep, the santoku for vegetable work, and the bunka for angled detail cuts. Western craft added the heavy cleaver for breakdown work. When both traditions merged in professional kitchens, a seven-blade system emerged that covered every task without redundancy. Bone and rosewood handle construction came from American custom knife craft — two dense natural materials joined flush for grip, visual contrast, and long-term durability. The JW Steel Crafts bone and rosewood Damascus set carries that full combined tradition in every forged blade.
What Is Inside the Set
-
Cleaver — Heavy chopping through dense vegetables, thick meat, and whole poultry, largest at 13 inches
-
Gyuto — Primary daily prep blade for slicing proteins and general kitchen tasks
-
Santoku — Flat edge for push cuts through produce and controlled precision slicing
-
Bunka — Reverse tanto tip for angled detail cuts the santoku cannot reach
-
Utility — Mid-size trimming and portioning between gyuto and paring
-
Paring — Peeling, scoring, and close-hand detail work, smallest at 8 inches
Blade Performance
Every blade is forged from 1095 high-carbon steel and 15N20 nickel alloy, stacked and hammer-welded into a single billet. Repeated folding multiplies the layer count and strengthens the grain structure. Acid etching reveals the flowing Damascus contrast pattern across every blade flat. Heat treatment brings each blade to 58–60 HRC — hard enough to hold a sharp working edge through daily prep without chipping. Full tang construction runs through every bone and rosewood handle and spreads weight evenly from blade tip to handle base across all seven knives.
Handle Construction
Every handle combines cream bone scales with dark rosewood spacer blocks. Bone stays firm and dry during active prep. Rosewood adds structural hardness and deep grain contrast against the pale bone. Natural variation means no two handles in the set look identical. Silver pins lock every handle firmly to the full tang. No bolster sits between blade and handle, giving each knife a clean, lightweight profile throughout.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the santoku and bunka?
The santoku has a flat edge for push cutting through produce. The bunka has a reverse tanto tip for angled detail cuts the santoku cannot reach precisely.
What steel is used in these blades?
Every blade uses 1095 high-carbon steel and 15N20 nickel alloy, hammer-welded and hardened to 58–60 HRC.
Can I get this set engraved?
Yes. Contact JW Steel Crafts before ordering to confirm options and processing time.
Are all seven knives full tang?
Yes. The blade steel runs the full length through every bone and rosewood handle for strength and long-term durability.
How do I sharpen Damascus kitchen knives?
Use a whetstone at 15–20 degrees per side. Avoid pull-through sharpeners — they damage the Damascus layer structure.
Is this set suitable as a gift?
Yes. The matched Damascus blades, cream bone and rosewood handles, and complete blade configuration make this a strong gift for chefs, culinary graduates, and knife collectors.
Let customers speak for us
I'm very pleased with this tent after having it for two years I've been in the rain I've been in the snow and it's held up pretty good but the cover that covers it did not hold up that good but the tent is perfect
Really enjoy the awning. Easy setup and got a little rain on the first trip. Easy to adjust for the run off. Very happy with the purchase!
I am one of the earliest customers Astrodome, I bought it and didn’t set it up for almost a year. By the time we set it up, we were blown away by the beauty of this space we purchased it on a mountain ledge in our glamping retreat in Lake County California two hours north of San as much as I love this space there are definitely some challenges with it in our location. It might work better than other locations, but we have had problems with the stakes, slipping and collapsing in the ground beneath and with the prevailing winds, it did stay up and it stays dry, even in tornadoes, but because the wind hits it from One Direction coming from the coast, this is definitely been a challenge for us we are going to try adding some weight inside it. The guests absolutely love this space keep in mind that with those skylights it’s going to get hot in the summertime but what’s nice is in the winter. It heats up almost passive solar. it’s also wonderful with a woodstove. A very cost effective alternative to a geodesic dome! If you want to experience it stay in ours, on Hipcamp.
I bought one of these at Scheels and absolutely love it. Great design, has everything you would ever need in a first aid/trauma/survival kit. Have one in all of my vehicles now. These guys truly thought of everything
A complete coverage of possibilities for my project and needs.
I love my new tent stove. Costumer service was also attentive and great to work with. Thank you.
The mounts work perfect with the truck bed rack I have on. Thank you for the excellent line of communication. You guys never kept me in the dark. I will ordering from you guys again.
I was wondering if you are able to sell just two extra mounts or do they just come in a set of six.
The color was even better in person. For well, looks well made and was easy to fold up and put into the carrying case. There was a bunch of colored plastic pieces from manufacturing on the mat, but I was able to vacuum it right up so be careful pulling it out.
Although it took a little extra time the delay very of my OVS Truck Topper was great. Good price too!
Fully engaged with customer, helped me get the crossbar I needed on time!
Product worked out great for my rack setup.
Order was delayed due to manufacturer delays, but my questions were answered and expectations on timing reset along the way. Cross bars were in perfect condition and work great!
I was in the market for a 3/4 length roof rack for my 4Runner as I wanted an upgrade from the OEM rails but still wanted to retain a somewhat OEM look. I am very happy that I went with the Sherpa Needle. It is a high quality rack with the best install method out of all the racks I looked at. I like that it is designed so you don’t have to deal with a mess of silicone when mounting. It is also nice that the fairing sits just above the roof instead of resting on it so that the paint does not get scratched. I was worried about wind noise because of this but I am happy to say there is no added wind noise at all.
I am also glad I purchased this rack through Live More Outside. I shopped around and they had the best pricing considering I was able to get a discount code, shipping was free, and they don’t charge sales tax. Shipping was prompt and I received the rack sooner than I thought I would.
Overall I am very pleased with this purchase and I will definitely come back to Live More Outside as I continue to build my rig.
By far one of the best customer service! Nathan has been a huge help on any questions and quick to respond! Live more outside is top notch. We are getting ready to hit our first outing with our new RTT. Cant wait to test it out. We also just purchased a 270 awning. I found one on another website but wanted to keep my business with live more outside. Nathan price matched and beat their price! We will continue to keep our business with this company!
