Damascus Knife
« on: December 11, 2011, 06:58:30 pm »
My friend Eddie sent me a blade and it arrived a few days ago.   It’s a mighty fine piece of steel let me tell ya.  I was really excited to work on something so nice.

Thanks Eddie.

You did good, Jon, is that Walnut?

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Sure is.  From a bunch of stuff I think Shannon left us.  I had a small piece of it and it looked like it would go just right on it.   :)

Very nice knife Jon.  Walnut does look super with Damascus.  Super.

That's a real nice looking skinner.  Any idea what types of steel in the damascus?  I like the way those low layer-count steels look.
