About 30 layers of SS 416 and SS 304, with a core of Austrian N678.

This is the first time I mix three kinds of stainless steels. I've used the same method I use to make mokume, but I welded the entire capsule closed and added paper strips with WD-40 inside for the O2 reduction.

I think it's a nice begining, I'll start using other SS steels later on.

Dammit, Ariel... you're my friggin' hero! Every time you post, I get mixed feelings of desire and ambition to try and emulate you, and utter fear and hopelessness at my lack of skills!
You do REALLY neat stuff, man! Just seeing your stuff is entertaining.
 
:thumbup: Its always nice to see your work, astray from the norm and nicely executed tip to tang :D
