This is my first twist pattern damascus. The first picture is after etching in ferric chloride, then sanding with 1200g and applying my makers mark. The next pictures are after soaking in coffee all night.
Got this one about finished up, more details and pictures to come. It is spoken for.
Grinding some 80crv2/410 stainless San mai.
I started this Damascus about a year ago by hand. Then realized that it sucked to do by hand and set it to the side. When I got my rollin mill, I finished it up. Right now it’s been etched and marked. Now I put it into some instant coffee to darken it up. I like how it turned out so far.
Today’s butt shot coming in a little late.
Hand sanding the bevels almost complete.
