kbaknife Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 Here's a little thing I've kept myself busy with. 378 layers of 1084/15N20. Damascus fittings made from some W2 and 203E. Sambar Stag handle with mild steel Take-down finial. Finial and fittings were hot blued for contrast. Fun stuff. Quote

dlpierson Posted September 15, 2009 Posted September 15, 2009 You did it again Karl. It's hard to keep coming up with new complements when every piece is great! Quote
Muttt Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 OK, Does the little thingie on the end hold the handle tight onto the blade?? If so ..... how did ya make it? I have an idea to weld a nut onto the end of the tang and use a small allen bolt to tighten it all together. Does your's work something like that? Mutt Quote
Bentiron1946 Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 WOW! Has anyone told you lately that you do good work? If not you do and that's no lie.:D Quote
