Damascus was considered higher quality than laminated and twist steel. Which is “stronger” would really be a subjective opinion. Some may say twist is weaker. But I would say that Damascus has more forge welds than twist, so why would that not be weaker? Ultimately they are both composed of two different materials forge welded together around a mandrel in order to form a tube.
