What steel is this knife made from?

The Scorpion Series is forged with Dalstrong's proprietary Japanese V12 Ultra™ Steel, a revolutionary high-performance steel designed to outperform traditional VG10. Enhanced with cobalt, this steel boasts a higher carbon content (1.2%) and chromium (18%) for superior hardness, edge retention, corrosion resistance, and toughness. The core is wrapped in 69 layers of folded Damascus steel, featuring a striking Sandstorm Spiral finish for both aesthetics and performance.

What is V12 Ultra™ Steel? I’ve never heard of it on other knives.

You’ve never heard of  V12 Ultra™ because only Dalstrong can use it. This is a proprietary steel that we developed in partnership with Aichii, our Japanese Steel manufacturer, to exceed the performance of elite Japanese steels like VG10.   Its enhanced chemical composition—with higher levels of carbon, chromium, molybdenum, and cobalt—delivers unmatched sharpness, durability, and corrosion resistance. The result is a blade that stays sharper longer, withstands heavy use, and maintains structural integrity under extreme conditions.

What material is the handle?

The Scorpion Series ‘Hellfire’ edition features a lightweight, ergonomic handle crafted from resin, and an embedded aluminum mesh. However, our ‘Venom’ edition also features stabilized wood in the handle. The handle’s downward arch counterbalances the blade, providing perfect balance and reducing wrist fatigue during extended use.

How sharp are the knives out of the box, and how easy are they to maintain? 

Each Scorpion Series knife is sharpened to an ultra-fine 8-12° edge using Dalstrong’s advanced D3™ sharpening process. This meticulous technique ensures scalpel-like sharpness straight out of the box. Thanks to the V12 Ultra™ steel’s exceptional hardness and cobalt reinforcement, edge retention is outstanding. Regular honing and occasional sharpening will keep the knife razor-sharp for years.

How should I care for and maintain the Scorpion Series knives? 

For optimal performance and longevity, hand wash your knife with warm water and mild soap, then dry it thoroughly before storing it in its genuine leather sheath. Avoid soaking the knife or using a dishwasher, as harsh environments can dull the blade and damage the handle over time.

How often will I need to sharpen my Scorpion Series knife? 

The frequency of sharpening depends on how—and how often— you use it, but the V12 Ultra™ steel’s superior edge retention means you’ll need to sharpen it less often than other knives. Regular honing helps maintain the blade’s alignment, and occasional sharpening with a whetstone or quality sharpener will restore its razor-sharp edge when needed.

What is Dalstrong D3™ sharpening? 

Dalstrong D3™ (Diamond Detailing) sharpening is a multi-stage process that meticulously grinds, polishes, and hones each blade to achieve extreme sharpness. This advanced technique, inspired by traditional Japanese Honbazuke methods, ensures a durable, scalpel-like edge that withstands the rigors of daily use.

What is Dalstrong LionShield™ treatment?

Dalstrong’s LionShield™ treatment is an advanced thermal and cryogenic process that strengthens the blade’s microstructure. This treatment enhances the blade’s hardness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention, ensuring your Scorpion Series knife remains sharp, strong, and reliable through years of demanding kitchen tasks.

Does the Scorpion Series knife come with a sheath? 

Yes, every Scorpion Series knife comes with a genuine leather sheath designed for secure storage and safe transport. The sheath protects the blade from damage and ensures it stays sharp and ready for your next culinary adventure.

What warranties or guarantees do I have? 

Dalstrong offers an industry-leading 70-day 100% money-back guarantee. If you’re not completely satisfied with your knife, you can return it for a full refund. Additionally, all Scorpion Series knives come with a lifetime warranty against defects, giving you peace of mind and confidence in your investment.
