What steel is the Barbarian Series made from?

The majority of Barbarian Series blades are forged from premium Swedish 14C28N Super Steel, known for its excellent edge retention, corrosion resistance, and sharpness. However, some of the more heavy-knives such as the Venator and Obliterator, used for processing tougher cuts, are crafted from 7CR17MOV-X stainless steel, offering added thickness while still maintaining durability, impact resistance, and toughness.

What is the benefit of Titanium Nitride coating?

The Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating enhances the blade’s durability, corrosion resistance, and smoothness. This coating reduces friction, making slicing easier and cleaner, while also providing a striking, rugged look. It helps protect the blade from rust, wear, and the harsh conditions often found in outdoor or high-heat cooking environments.

What material is the handle?

The Barbarian Series features stabilized wood handles that provide a rugged, textured grip. This natural material, combined with steel jimping along the tang, offers superior control even in greasy or wet conditions. Due to the organic origin of the wood, your handle color may vary slightly from that which you see in the images, appearing a darker brown or lighter grey-brown.  The pommel loop adds a functional touch for easy hanging and display.

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

Each Barbarian knife is sharpened to a razor-sharp 12-14° edge using Dalstrong’s advanced D3™ sharpening process. This precise edge offers a perfect balance between sharpness and durability, ideal for both fine slicing and heavy chopping. The Swedish 14C28N steel holds its edge exceptionally well, while the 7CR17MOV-X steel on heavy-duty models is designed for easy re-sharpening after tough tasks.

How should I care for and maintain the Barbarian knife?

Designed for durability, Barbarian knives require only basic maintenance. Rinse the blade after use, especially when working with acidic or greasy foods, and dry thoroughly before storing it in the Crazy Horse leather sheath. When at home, hand wash with warm water and mild soap. Avoid abrasive scrubbers to protect the Titanium Nitride coating, and never put the knife in the dishwasher, as harsh conditions can damage both the blade and handle.

How often will I need to sharpen my Barbarian knife?

Sharpening frequency depends on usage, so this will vary from owner to owner. Regular honing helps maintain blade alignment, and occasional sharpening with a whetstone or high-quality sharpener will keep your knife in peak condition.

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, creates a scalpel-like edge that withstands the rigors of both professional kitchens and outdoor cooking environments.

What is Dalstrong LionShield™ treatment?

Dalstrong’s LionShield™ treatment is an advanced thermal and cryogenic process that strengthens the blade’s microstructure. This treatment improves hardness, corrosion resistance, and edge retention, ensuring your Barbarian knife remains sharp, durable, and reliable even after years of intense use.

Does the Barbarian knife come with a sheath?

Yes, every Barbarian Series knife comes with a durable leather sheath for secure storage and transport. This high-quality leather is designed to age beautifully, developing a unique patina over time that reflects the knife’s journey.

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 Barbarian Series knives come with a lifetime warranty against defects, providing peace of mind and long-term protection for your investment.
