Blade made from Chad Nichols damascus steel
The blade of this Spartan Blades Gold - Elite Grade, Pandia is made from Chad Nichols damascus steel. You can see that straight away. There are plenty of beautiful types of damascus steel, yet Chad Nichols has achieved near-iconic status in the knife world.
His damascus steel is made in the United States and is renowned for its distinctive patterns and high quality. By combining different types of steel in a specific way, a layered steel is created which, after etching, reveals its characteristic pattern. Think of patterns such as ''Raindrop'', ''Ladder'', ''Boomerang'' or ''Wavepool''. Every blade is unique: no two patterns are exactly the same. Chad Nichols’ damascus steel is often found on limited editions, custom knives and high-quality production knives.
