Well jmc the ph is my friends and I don't get over there as much as I like. The reason for not havin more layers is becuz the layers were about the thickness I wanted;this was kinda a shot in the dark so i didn't wanna have too much time in a failed attempt

Looks good ......if it were me I would thin down the handle a little to give it a slimmer look but overall it looks nice

I have made one knife from cable but this is my first actual pattern welded blade. I used scrap metal for the two steels and didn't quite get the contrast I wanted but here it is Overall length 6 3/4 in Blade length 3 in Handle length 3 3/4 Blade is 1/8 in thick at thickest point The guard is brass The handle is desert ironwood Comments and criticism welcome Btw those spots on the blade are from me getting the blade too hot during ht :_(

thanks for the compliments,the hammer works great and im happy with it except for I got the eye punched a little bit off center. Mac I have a 2.25in billet of 1045 but idk if that is big enough,as to forging the hammer by hand I really didn't mind it as long as I worked it HOT!! thanks rockstar here is the hammer I used
