I recently bought this cute little knife second hand and was wondering if the steel was actually quality Damascus or if I have fallen trap to cheap/poor quality stuff

    Unfortunately that does appear to be laser or acid eched rather than pattern-welded steel.

    It’s cheap. Don’t use it for anything you’ll be consuming

    Yeah you did fall for the cheap Damascus trap, but I did before too at a renaissance festival as well before I got way too into knives.

    Nice thing is you can use this as your knife to use for anything you want with no remorse. I got an old kershaw I use for the real nasty stuff.
