The crafting process begins with the meticulous design of the unique pattern. The blade is then expertly forged, welded, twisted, drilled, flattened, ground, and forge-welded repeatedly. The stack of steel is carefully transformed into a billet, and it's from these billets or bars that the magnificent knife takes shape. The knife is painstakingly profiled, ground, heat-treated, and meticulously finished with additional processes like etching and bluing, revealing the awe-inspiring pattern. The blade is tempered to perfection, and its edge is honed to razor-sharpness.
