Features of the Böker Damast Olive series

Böker Damast Olive blade

The pattern of the olive wood looks amazing, especially in combination with the damascus-steel blade with a core made from Japanese VG10-steel. This is a stainless type of steel with a relatively high carbon content. This means that VG10 steel is a lot harder than most stainless types of steel. As such, the edge of the knife is sharper than European knives and it retains its sharpness longer. The edge is razor-sharp, as we're used to from Japanese-style kitchen knives. The knives from this collection weigh next to nothing, so long-term use will be a great experience as well.

Böker Damast Olive handle

The Böker Damast Olive collection represents quality and elegance, with a multi-cultural touch. The handles are made from stunning olive wood from the Mediterranean. This wood has a nice pattern and even still smells like olives. The oval shape is one of the distinctive types of Japanese handles. The olive wood of the handle doesn't only look amazing, its pattern is also unique per knife. Because of this, the pattern of the wood can differ from that of the image on the website.

Maintaining the Böker Damast Olive knives

If you properly maintain your new knives you can enjoy them for years! Like most kitchen knives, the knives from the Böker Damast Olive collection are not dishwasher safe. If you put them in the dishwasher you will notice soon enough that the olive wood will be affected. It is the result of a combination of the harsh detergent, the heat and the fact that the blades stay damp too long in the dishwasher. The dishwasher can damage the olive wood of the handle and the blade can start to rust. It is best to wash and dry them by hand immediately after use. Keep the wood in optimal condition by regularly applying a coat of mineral oil to the handle.
