Damax ™: a new generation stainless steel for the creation of exceptional knives.
Alleima®, the famous Swedish acider known worldwide (eg sandvik) for the quality of its steels has designed a new multilayer stainless steel for creating cutlery, jewelery or other decorative applications: Damax.
Damascus steel: aesthetics and performance.
Damascus steel has always captivated the cutlers and cutelery enthusiasts with its aesthetics and performance, both in terms of cutting the cutting edge and for its resistance to corrosion.
Product crafts for thousands of years, Damascus steel is renewed every day by the creativity of blacksmiths around the world.
Every day new steel assemblages, every day of as original patterns as fascinating.
Our craftsmen have talent.
A real revolution in the field of Damascus steels.
With Damax, Alleima opens an even unexplored way in the creation of stainless damask steels.
The Swedish firm put all its know-how and all the power of its advanced technology to develop and produce a multilayer Damask steel by innovative industrial methods.
Damas DamaX steel is composed of two nuances of martensitic stainless steel:
• Alleima® 7C27MO2: Stainless steel generally used for electric razor knives and springs.
• Alleima® 19C27: Stainless steel for the most wear-resistant knives.
The combination of these two nuances gives a stainless steel of a structure of up to 135 layers with infinite possibilities of cold hammering design, a very high hardness and good corrosion resistance after heat treatment.
Simple heat treatment for breathtaking results.
The thermal treatment of Damax will not change the habits of the cutlers already working stainless steel. With an oven and an oil of quench adapted, it's easy to get the most out of this exceptional stainless steel shade.
Austenisation of Damax:
The Damax turns to 1060 ° C, classically.
If you want to apply cryogenic treatment, it is better to drive an austenitization at 1090 ° C.
The maintenance time will depend on the thickness on the back of your blade:
• 2.5 mm: 5 minutes
• 3 mm: 6 minutes
• 3.25 mm: 7 minutes
• 3.5 mm: 8 minutes
• 4 millimeters: 12 minutes
Damax's income:
Cutlery income is a crucial step: it will give the room all its ductility. Damax's income does not differ from revenues from conventional stainless steel shades: we will advise, depending on the desired final hardness, an income between 175 and 350 ° C for 2 hours.
Attention, an income leads above 450 ° C will inevitably weaken the room.
A customizable pattern to infinity.
Damax is comprising up to 135 stainless steel alternative layers Alleima® 19C27 and Alleima® 7C27MO2.
Without any other intervention on the part of the cutter, a blade after engagement and revelation will reveal harmonious and elegant symmetrical lines.
The real interest of the Damax lies in the possibility of customizing the pattern: by hammering the bar or the cold blade by means of a hammer or any other constant tool, the cutter can come hammer the steel layers to form his own pattern.
You will have understood: each blade made in Damax will be unique, and their appearance will have a limit than the imagination of the craftsman !
Reveal the motifs of Damax.
As with any damask steel, whether carbon or stainless, it will be necessary to reveal the motives of Damax by means of acids.
Different options are possible according to the desired result.
Find in detail the mixtures necessary to use for the best results in the data sheet.
• Polish and drop the part to reveal and drop.
• Immerse the part in the acid mixture during the specified time, or until you get a satisfactory revelation.
• Heat the acid mixture in a water bath allows you to speed up the process.
• Once the desired revelation obtained, rinse thoroughly the part before diving into a mixture of water and baking soda.
• Polish the room again with a very fine grain to accentuate the contrast between the different layers.
