I Forge Iron

Damascus bowie

Number 2 of 3 for the Eugene show.

 

OL 13 1/4"

BL 8 5/8"

Steel 1084/15n20

Guard NS and copper

Handle Desert Ironwood ivory and black horn

 

Two of the spacers are textured.  The guard is not really mokume, it's a soldered stack of NS and copper, filed to shape.  It shows different things in different lights.  As the copper ages the NS will show more.  The blade is a low layer weave, 9 layers (I think) squared, four stacked, squared, and nine stacked (if that makes any sense).  Then flipped, it made for a nice dense pattern.
