What is Damascus steel?
The origin of the name "Damascus steel" is controversial: two Islamic scholars, Al-Kindi and Al-Biruni (c. 800-873 CE), both wrote about swords and sword steels based on appearance, the geographic location of where they were produced or forged, or the name of the smith . Both authors also mention the terms "damscene" or "damascus" when describing the swords to some extent.
Based on these references, there are three possible sources where the term "comes from" Damascus" in the context of steel:
Al-Kindi refers to swords forged in Damascus in Siberia as "Damascene", but it is important to note that these swords are not described as having a wavy appearance on the surface of the steel.Al-Biruni refers to a swordsmith called Damascus who made crucible steel swords.In Arabic, the word "damascus" means "watered", and Damascus blades are often described as having a water pattern on their surface.
The most common explanation is that the steel is named after the capital of Syria, Damascus, the largest of the ancient cities Levant. These may be swords made or sold directly in Damascus, or simply the appearance of the typical patterns, in comparison with damask fabrics, which also bear the name Damascus.
Qu is German steel?
German knives are usually made of stainless steel, which has a Rockwell rating between 56 and 58. Stainless steel contains chromium . This is what lowers the Rockwell index. The advantage is that the knife blade resists corrosion and rust.
Cooks generally agree that German-style stainless steel knife blades are stronger than carbon blades. Japanese type. Cooks generally agree that German-style stainless steel knife blades are stronger than Japanese-style blades. Its durability allows you to use it for more cutting and chopping tasks.
The softer characteristic of steel still allows for a sharp edge, but stainless steel will require you to sharpen and trim it more often. The softer steel also makes the blade easier to sharpen, although a stainless steel blade means a German knife will lose its edge more quickly than its Japanese counterpart, which is made of high-carbon steel.
