Good morning everyone!
I want to share with you the result of the WIP i've been making.
It is an integral random damascus belduque.
The steel is made of 1070 and 15N20, (chaotic) random damascus. The blade width is about 0.14" with fullers and a tappered tang.
The scales are made of natural guayacán wood with textured copper pins.
The scabbard is also guayacán wood with sand blasted aged copper curb (?), hook and toe (?). It is also sewn with copper wire.
You can see the WIP in the next link:

Lets see the pictures.

Thanks!! I've tried find something like this on the internet but i couldn't. That's the first reason why I did it. Maybe it is something stupid, unproductive, imperfect... but it is unique, and that's what I was looking for.

I do like it very much. Super nice
 
There are so many outstanding features to gaze upon and point out.

I'll simply choose that lightning bolt/power line in the steel of the blade. It just draws my eyes to the point.

Bravo!
