The Damast Annual Knife for 2023 is an exceptional knife that knife enthusiasts will surely appreciate. This year’s design, created in collaboration with Ricardo Romano Bernandes, features a modern twist on the traditional Pen Knife. The blade is made with Damasteel®’s powder-metallurgical damascus, known for its high quality and requiring both technical expertise and traditional skills to create. The blue and gray laminated G10 handle is strikingly beautiful and provides a pleasing contrast to the blade’s “Odin Eye” pattern. The slip joint is simple yet practical and a must-have feature for this type of knife. While it is a collector’s item, it is also a great everyday carry option due to the knife’s indestructible G10 scales and stainless steel blade. 

The Damast Annual Knife for 2023 is limited to 999 pieces, each with a certificate of authenticity and a unique serial number. The knife is presented in a suspended display that showcases the knife’s beauty and craftsmanship. If you’re looking for a knife that combines beauty, quality, and functionality, this is one knife you won’t want to miss.
