Named for the mythological Greek birthplace of Apollo and Artemis, the Delos features premium 120-layer rose patterned German Damascus steel and handle scales made of Titanium and Fat Carbon® in “Dark Matter Blue” or “Black Dunes”.

Complementing polished or black hardware complete the look of this exquisite knife. Made in Maniago, Italy, known as the “city of knives”, where centuries of high-quality knife craftsmanship and the latest technology meet.
Damascus Steel
Damascus is a premium pattern-welded steel recognizable for its distinctive wavy design. Our knives feature 120-layer stainless martensitic Damascus (comprised of N690 and Nitro-B steel) produced in Germany using the traditional fire-welding process, resulting in a premium blade with high edge retention and sharpness. Our knives with Damascus steel have a Rockwell Hardness of 60-61.
Anodized Aerospace grade Titanium
Considered a premium metal for a knife handle, titanium is lightweight with a high strength-to-density ratio. Our titanium is anodized in shades of blue and black to elegantly coordinate with the Fat Carbon handle scales.
Fat Carbon
Fat Carbon is a lightweight, durable carbon fiber composite produced in Lithuania. The "Dark Matter" color series used in the Damascus Solstice is a composite made from carbon fiber, organic pigments, and epoxy resin. It seems to change and shift in the light, making it a perfect complement to the dramatic Damascus steel blade.
