Howdy!!  Something I just finished tonight..made from a puck of crucible damask..didn't turn out bad at all..

MAJOR learning curve on this stuff...all that C plays with your brain as far as working goes... approx 175 pts C and trace amounts of V and Cr added as crystal starters.  Heat treating was also interesting..cracked one figuring it out..This one worked..  Going in book IV..will be listed for sale on my website tomorrow..

Phosphor bronze mounts, bovine ivory grip.. Not an altogether ugly knife at that...Still have to work out  a better way to do the etch at the finish.. Love it..you learn more from mistakes that you do successes ..and this stuff...well I learned a LOT!!
