Salvaged enough of the billet to make a knife. I think the pattern turned out great. It’s about 150 layers of twisted Damascus.
Long day, but learned a lot. Made my first 150 layer twisted damascus. Then at the very end, I stepped away for a second and the forge got too hot and burned most of it up. May have enough for a knife, we will see. Lost about a day and a half of work. But sometimes its good to learn the hard way, unfortunately I think I expanded my kids vocabulary a bit in the process.
A couple angles showing off the tang and liners. This is spoken for.
• Aebl
• Dyed poplar
• Blue G10 liners
• Brass pins

Today’s butt shot. Have a good weekend. Thanks for following my work.
Well I heat treated the San mai from the other night and it split the core down this center of the spine. I have read of this being an issue with 80crv2 San mai. I will make some changes and try again. But it did grind out, it’s just a different profile now. Did a test coffee etch to see the contrast.
Another one done. It is spoken for. Thanks for following, here are the details.

Some Chechen after a coat of Tru oil.
Almost there. But it will be a few days till I get back out there. Going on 12 hours with no power and it’s cold.
Trying another hidden tang.
Got some hand sanding to do on this beast. One side almost done.
