Damascus Camp Axe

[G L Drew]

I'm experimenting with forge welding damascus. I built a billet of 15N20 and 1095 into 1 x 1 inch and forged out this small axe, it was a challenge and I spent a lot of time on it but expecting it will get easier as I go along. The handle is sycamore.

That's pretty damn cool, Gerry.
What steels did you use?

Just added it to the description above, Chris. Thanks for the heads up.

That is one of the coolest blades I've seen all day.

I love how the grain seems to match the pattern in the damascus from that angle.

That's a wonderful piece!
