Copper Damascus Folding Knife – Pakka Wood & Rosewood Handle with Leather Sheath

Copper Damascus. Every Day. Every Carry.

The copper Damascus folding knife is one of the most visually distinctive EDC pieces available in handmade knife making. Unlike standard Damascus steel, this blade is forge-welded with copper — creating the visible warm copper stripe lines running through the Damascus pattern that give this knife its unique character. The 3-inch blade folds cleanly into the pakka wood and rosewood handle via a back lock mechanism, making it a secure, practical EDC folder that doubles as a collector piece. The teal blue-green and blue pakka wood bolsters with warm rosewood center section, gold brass liners, and white silver pins create a handle that is as visually striking as the copper Damascus blade. The black embossed leather sheath with medallion snap completes a premium package ready for daily carry, camping, or display.

Blade Details

The copper Damascus blade is produced by forge-welding layers of 1095 high-carbon steel and 15N20 nickel steel together with copper. During the forging and drawing process, the copper integrates into the layered billet — creating the warm copper stripe lines visible running through the Damascus pattern on the finished blade. The acid etching process reveals the contrasting dark 1095, bright 15N20, and warm copper tones across the blade flat. The result is a blade pattern that is visually unlike any standard Damascus — the copper element adds a warm metallic tone and a unique visual layer that makes every blade individual. The blade profile features a serrated thumb jimping on the spine near the handle for secure thumb purchase during use, and a polished spine flat that catches light against the Damascus etched body.

Handle Details

The three-section handle is assembled from teal blue-green pakka wood at the butt, warm rosewood at the center, and blue pakka wood near the blade — separated by gold brass liners that create precise visual breaks between the sections. White silver pins secure the handle scales. The black steel bolster at the blade shoulder provides a clean visual anchor between the copper Damascus blade and the colorful handle assembly. The back lock mechanism is integrated cleanly into the handle spine. The combination of teal pakka, rosewood, blue pakka, and gold brass creates a handle that is immediately recognizable and visually striking at any carry.

Sheath Details

The black embossed genuine leather sheath features a floral embossed pattern on the leather body and a round medallion snap button on the flap closure. Gold yellow stitching runs the full perimeter. The sheath is sized for the folded knife and provides belt or pocket carry via the integrated belt loop on the back.

EDC. Camping. Collection. Gift.

The copper Damascus folder is equally at home clipped to a belt for daily carry, packed in a camping kit, displayed in a knife collection, or presented as a premium handmade gift. The compact 6.5-inch open length and 3.5-inch closed handle make it a practical size for daily use. The copper Damascus blade and pakka wood rosewood handle make it a visual standout in any collection or gift presentation.

The back lock mechanism is fitted and adjusted by hand. The teal pakka, rosewood, and blue pakka handle sections are selected, fitted with gold brass liners and white silver pins, and assembled over the full tang. The black leather sheath is cut, embossed, stitched, and fitted with the medallion snap by hand. No two knives are identical.

Care Instructions

Wipe the blade clean after each use. Hand wash only — never dishwasher. Dry immediately. Apply a light coat of blade oil to the Damascus blade and copper elements occasionally. The pakka wood and rosewood handle scales are sealed and require minimal maintenance — wipe clean with a dry cloth. Oil the back lock pivot occasionally with a drop of knife oil for smooth operation. Condition the leather sheath seasonally with leather conditioner. Store folded in the sheath in a dry environment.

Keep out of reach of children. Always follow proper knife safety practices during use and storage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes copper Damascus different from standard Damascus?
Standard Damascus is forge-welded from two or more steel alloys — typically 1095 and 15N20 — which creates the contrasting dark and bright pattern after acid etching. Copper Damascus adds copper to the billet during the forge-welding process. The copper integrates into the layered steel and creates visible warm copper stripe lines through the Damascus pattern — adding a third visual element — the warm metallic copper tone — that standard Damascus does not have.

Is the back lock secure for field use?
Yes. The back lock is a proven, reliable folding knife lock mechanism. When the blade is fully open, the back lock engages a notch in the blade tang, locking the blade securely open until the lock bar is manually depressed to release. It is suitable for EDC, camping, and field use tasks.

What is pakka wood?
Pakka wood (also called stabilized wood or composite wood) is natural wood that has been vacuum-impregnated with colored resin under pressure. The process stabilizes the wood grain and enhances the color — creating the vivid teal blue-green and blue tones visible in this handle while retaining the natural wood surface texture and grain.

Is this suitable as a gift?
Yes — the copper Damascus blade, teal pakka and rosewood handle, and black embossed leather sheath make this one of the most visually distinctive handmade folding knives available as a gift. It presents exceptionally well and is a practical carry tool.
