Damascus Knife
« on: December 11, 2011, 09:47:42 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?

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.   :)

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.
