Damascus question (sh.itjust.works)

recently got this knife as a gift and it's my first Damascus steel.

i am never happy with the edge, it has teeth, it doesn't glide. fine when cutting bread but awful for an apple :/

is that normal for damascus?

that damascus layer looks more like a crack now 🤷

That does not look good at all. I hope the maker responds.
