Thanks Ted I appreciate your comment.

I was shown how to make the Damascus by a fellow member and forged it in to shape at the same time.

It took me a while to heat treat it and finish it, bloody hard on files and me :roll: ,

Going to go back soon to make a couple of Nekker Knives as well as a Hunting knife.

You did a great job on the Damascus, I love the stuff and made it a couple of times, but hate playing with borax with only one eye. The way it splatters I want to keep the other one safe. I now buy my Damascus. Keep up the great work, its always good to see someone else making knives and stuff. :D

Is it an optical delusion or does the grain on each side of the knife run perpendicular to each other?
