Vary nice.
Is there any safety recomendations when doing canister damascus?

 

[Raymond Richard]

About time! That really turned out well...... Is the handle elk bone or is that scrotum?

HEHEHE!!! Elk Penis .

HEHEHE!!! Elk Penis .

Only George would think of that! George, that's a beautiful knife. I really like it, fella. Ol' george put a lot of sweat and elbow grease in what some may call a pigsticker. I would call it a beautiful and wicked looking dagger, George.

I don't know about safety, but I aways leave a vent hole in the canister and spray some WD-40 to burn out the oxygen.
Thanks Guys for the nice comments.

Nice one George. I like the damascus and overall shape. Really pointy!

 

[Laredo7mm]

Very nice, did you copper some of the blade or is it just the how the picture turned out? Either way I like it.

Well that was worth waiting for! Lot of nice details - I like the curve in the bottom of the ricasso and it looks like the guard has a lot of points and curves too. Way to go IG, thanks for sharing.
