The history of Damascus steel reaches deep into the past, even farther back than during the Crusades. The biblical city of Damascus was known for a fabric, still known today as damask, woven in wavy patterns from fine silk threads. This in turn inspired the blade steel that according to legend was first forged in the city. New Second Cut Jigged Burnt Goldenrod Bone is the perfect complement to this stunning steel. Brass pins and liners and nickel silver bolters add to the artistry, as does the Case® Bowtie shield. Case has once again successfully blended past, present and future.
