First Damascus Blade
This is my first blade with sole authorship damascus. Blade: 8" ,320 layers, 1080 & 15N20.
I just completed the rough grind (no H/T) so the etch is minimal. Sorry for the limited picture quality but my camera just wouldn't give more. Gary |

Very nice! I just hope I can get to that point someday! Heck of a job for the first damascus. I've seen damacus from people that have been doing it a lot longer that isn't nearly as nice
I sure would like to know more about the details - what steels did you use, what forge (propane or coal), how may lamination, etc. The good stuff! |
