Thread: Ebay Damascus razors.

Any one have any experience with the 1095 15n20 damascus stuff coming out of Pakistan.

Obviously Pakistan is a country of dubious origin, but i did buy a knife blank a few years ago that turned out pretty nice, and had a similar blade composition.

Was hoping to see if any one had pulled the trigger on any of these and had some experiance

There lies the answer to your question. Quality Damascus is expensive.

Do not buy it. You will most certainly regret the decision. If you must you will find you have a poor quality box opener
that will only last long enough to open a few boxes.

There's a Wiki here that lists some of the brands of razor's to stay clear of...I'm sure the one you've mentioned is on that list.
