basher Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Here is the latest Axe I have finished. I started it last year whilst working along side of a student who made a dane axe from riggers shackles. A damascus Dane axe, low layern Body folded and punched and then a high layer edge . Materials 15n20 and en42J... The material follows the shape of th eye and although the axe is folded I completly forge welded it and re punched through the material. The higher layer edge is wrapped over the lower layer core material. I wanted tight subtle pattern in the edge and a bold body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
