Don A Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Very nice work. Good job on the penny scrolls. Give us a few details on how you forged them. Also, what did you use to etch the wrought? Very nice, indeed. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Mayo Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Beautifull bowie exellent work on the fit and finish. Did you make the damascus? Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D Lisch Posted January 5, 2010 Author Share Posted January 5, 2010 yes I made the damascus and like i said it is fire etch you sand the part to 400 finish put it back in the fire and raise the grain. clean with wire wheel and repeat until you love it wire wheel blue and wax. as for making the scroll I did it the old way with my hammer and tongs and a pice of wrought 5/8 x 5/8 x2-3/4 long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
