Prismforge Mosaiccrest™ Damascus Cleaver Knife – Multicolour Acrylic Handle

The Prismforge Mosaiccrest™ Damascus Cleaver Knife combines traditional pattern-welded Damascus steel with a vibrant multicolour acrylic art handle, creating a distinctive handmade kitchen cleaver for food preparation and knife enthusiasts.

Featuring a 5.5-inch Damascus blade, 10-inch overall length, and 4.5 mm blade thickness, this limited-edition cleaver brings together practical kitchen cutting geometry and an artistic handle design.

The blade is crafted from 1095 and 15N20 Damascus steel, with a supplier-stated hardness of 55–58 HRC. A fitted cowhide leather sheath is included for blade protection.

Handmade 1095 & 15N20 Damascus Steel Blade

The Prismforge Mosaiccrest™ features a hand-forged Damascus steel blade made by pattern welding 1095 carbon steel and 15N20 nickel-containing steel.

This process produces the distinctive layered patterns associated with handmade Damascus knives.

The 5.5-inch blade provides a compact cutting length, while the 4.5 mm blade thickness gives the knife a substantial kitchen cleaver profile.

According to the original manufacturer, the Damascus steel has a hardness rating of 55–58 HRC. Cutting performance also depends on sharpening, edge geometry, heat treatment, and proper care.

Multicolour Acrylic Art Handle

One of the most distinctive features of this Damascus cleaver knife is its multicolour acrylic art handle.

Unlike conventional hardwood handles, acrylic allows the knife to feature vivid colours and artistic patterns that complement the layered Damascus blade.

The handle adds a contemporary appearance to a traditionally forged knife, making the Prismforge Mosaiccrest™ an interesting option for customers who appreciate decorative craftsmanship alongside kitchen functionality.

The acrylic material should be cleaned gently and protected from excessive heat and harsh cleaning chemicals.

Compact Kitchen Cleaver for Food Preparation

With its 10-inch overall length, the Prismforge Mosaiccrest™ offers a compact alternative to larger kitchen cleavers.

Its broad blade profile can be used for everyday preparation tasks such as:

1. Chopping vegetables and fresh herbs
2. Slicing boneless meats
3. Preparing ingredients for home cooking
4. General cutting on a suitable kitchen cutting board

The knife is not specifically rated for chopping hard bones or frozen ingredients.

Limited-Edition Handmade Design

The Prismforge Mosaiccrest™ is based on a supplier-designated limited-edition handmade cleaver.

Its combination of patterned steel and a multicolour acrylic handle distinguishes it from conventional kitchen knives.

The Damascus pattern and decorative handle give the knife a striking appearance for kitchen knife collections or gifting.

Limited-edition designation refers to the supplier's product description and does not imply a specific numbered production quantity.

Cowhide Leather Sheath Included

A fitted cowhide leather sheath is included with the knife.

The sheath protects the cutting edge when the knife is not in use and provides blade coverage during handling and transportation.

The supplier describes its handmade leather sheaths as having a vertical-carry belt loop.

Always dry the blade completely before placing it inside the leather sheath. For long-term storage, keep the knife in a clean, dry environment.
