XUAN FENG VG10 Damascus Steel Folding Pocket Knife with Ox Bone & Brass Handle
Meet the XUAN FENG X889 — a masterfully crafted folding pocket knife that blends traditional artisanship with premium modern metallurgy. Featuring a genuine VG10 Damascus steel blade and an elegant ox bone and brass handle, this penknife is equally at home in the field, at the campsite, or in a discerning collector's display case.
Made in Mainland China.
Premium Damascus Steel Blade
The blade is forged from VG10 Damascus (Damascus pattern) steel, hand-layered to achieve the distinctive ripple pattern that Damascus is famous for. With a blade hardness of HRC 59–63 and a blade angle exceeding 60°, the edge holds a razor-sharp cutting edge through heavy everyday use — whether you're slicing, whittling, or peeling. Blade thickness is 3 mm for robust rigidity without added bulk.
Elegant Ox Bone & Brass Handle
The ox bone handle with brass accents gives every knife a one-of-a-kind appearance, as natural bone grain varies piece to piece. The handle measures 10 cm in length, providing a comfortable, secure grip. The overall open length is 18 cm, making it compact yet fully functional.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What makes VG10 Damascus steel special for a folding knife?
A: VG10 Damascus steel is a high-performance blade material created by layering VG10 steel (a premium Japanese stainless steel) with other steel alloys and forge-welding them together. The result is a blade with exceptional edge retention (HRC 59–63 hardness), excellent toughness, and the iconic wavy Damascus pattern that makes each knife visually unique. It's an ideal choice for a folding pocket knife that needs to stay sharp through everyday tasks.
Q: Is this folding knife suitable as a gift or collector's item?
A: Absolutely. The XUAN FENG X889 combines premium VG10 Damascus steel with a naturally patterned ox bone and brass handle, making it both a high-performance tool and a visually striking collector's piece. It's a thoughtful gift for outdoor enthusiasts, knife collectors, and anyone who appreciates fine handcrafted tools.
Q: Does the knife come sharp out of the box?
A: Yes. Each XUAN FENG X889 is factory sharpened and arrives ready to use. The VG10 Damascus blade, with its >60° edge angle and HRC 59–63 hardness, maintains a keen edge through regular use. A whetstone is included to help you maintain the blade's sharpness over time. Always handle with care.
Q: Is the blade locked when open?
A: This model (X889) does not feature a locking mechanism. The blade is held open by the handle's spring tension. Please exercise appropriate care when using or closing the knife, and keep it stored safely when not in use.
