This is one of Fredrik Spåre’s recent favorite works, forged from Damasteel® Jörmungandr™ Stainless Dual Core Damascus Steel.
Inspired by the great World Serpent "Jörmungandr" from Norse Mythology, the Twist Pattern carries a sense of movement and tension. At first glance, it resembles dragon scales. The lines flow like a rising tide, creating depth and layered texture across the blade.
The steel is forged from a combination of RWL34™ and PMC27™, two Martensitic Stainless Powder Metallurgy Alloys. By blending two different hardenable Knife Steels, Damasteel® achieves both Corrosion Resistance and high Strength. The result is excellent Edge Stability and strong Cutting Performance. It takes an exceptionally sharp edge and remains easy to maintain, making it well suited for high quality Stainless Damascus Knives.
Beyond the pattern, the knife reflects Fredrik’s design language. The profile is clean and direct, with a pronounced Finger Choil that has become one of his signature features. The blade is forged super thin. Every element feels considered and intentional.
This batch includes two variations. Both feature Hammered Brass Bolsters that add texture without overpowering the overall design. One is fitted with Curly Birch, the other with Flame Maple. Each handle brings its own character while complementing the movement within the Damascus Pattern.
