Damascus Bushcraft with Amboyna Burl

[Danbo]

This one turned out pretty nice, I think. Blade is 288 layers of W1, 15N20 and 1084 in a random pattern. Triple normalized, full quench in Brownell's Tough Quench and triple tempered. Rockwell hardness is about perfect at 58-59. Full, flat grind pretty thin, but not kitchen knife thin. Very sharp polished edge. Some of the nicest stabilized Amboyna Burl ever, IMO. Overlayed handles, so the damascus pattern can be seen all around. Overall length is about 9", with a cutting edge of around 3.5".
