The Brave III Wootz Damascus Carbon Resin Handle Custom Knife

The Brave III is a bold custom knife that fuses ancient Wootz Damascus steel with contemporary luxury – only a few units are currently in stock. The 145 mm blade (40 mm wide, approx. 4 mm thick) is forged from genuine Wootz Damascus, then vacuum heat-treated to a formidable 60–62 HRC, delivering outstanding edge retention and toughness. Its black & white acid etch finish, sealed with a protective nano-coating, creates a dramatic, high-contrast pattern that highlights the steel’s natural carbide bands. The handle is where tradition meets innovation: 304 stainless steel bolsters frame a stunning gold leaf & crushed carbon resin body, where suspended gold flecks sparkle against a deep carbon-black matrix – offering a grip that is both ergonomically satisfying and visually mesmerizing. At 270 mm overall, The Brave III is paired with a hand-carved Italian top-grain cowhide sheath, making it a ready-to-carry masterpiece that honors the legacy of Wootz while embracing modern materials art.
