how many don't care for the look of people who don't like damascus?

[Danbo]

Ok, obviously I'm bored today.

Since we're all here, how about posting pics of our favorite damascus knives? Non believers in damascus can just look away!

 

[Danbo]

A couple of more. If you don't like this stuff, you might wanna go see a doctor!

 

[RogerP]

These ought to have the damascus-haters positively retching :barf: :barf: :

Bradshaw

Filicietti / Bradshaw

McIntyre

Lange

Newton / Fitch collaboration

Fisk

Dean

That ought to truamatize them but good.

Roger

PS - Danbo, I LOVE that Cashen mini-bowie.

Jim Walker learned this pattern from Felicietti I believe.

Winkler does well

Sunfishman

 

[Grapevine]

Very pretty. But they'd all look better if they were plain steel . Except for that McIntyre. Now that's an interesting pattern to me, maybe because of its near uniformity.

Damascus ... let's post again a couple of them:

Chainsaw (Tom Lewis, USA)

Wootz closeup (Achim Wirtz, Germany)

 

[RWS]

This has got to be some of the most beautiful knives I have ever seen, and there are people out there that don't care for Damascus?
In the words of Taggart (Blazing Saddles), "I am depressed!"

 

[dredd8]

First, there is star damascus pattern Tommy Lee knife

Then, we have a cable damascus JW Townsend knife

You need to check out Cliff Parkers damascus folders.
Very cool.

I love damascus

I still owe Keith a canister damascus bowie, I haven't forget about that.

Okay... a couple I had on file at work...

The first is one of Audra Draper's Aloha Cowgirls... of course, it no longer looks as "shiny" as I cut steak with it - now is has a wonderful rainbow patina to it!

The second is my one G. Rodewald - a truly sweet little personal carry bowie shape... one of my fav's!

And the last is another Rodewald which is a pic I lifted from one of the sites with Sambar stag handle...

Man, gotta love that damascus!!!


That's weird - I loaded all three the same way... wonder why one didn't show like the other two did...Oh well...

 

[Megalobyte]

OK, I have given into temptation...

Some sweet radial mosaic from one of Brazil's best, Dorneles...

Mike Williams (MS) pattern on a 12" bowie

Some mosaic from our resident Sunfish...

Bailey's Pool and Eye, differentially tempered no less...

 

[Megalobyte]

Bailey's Jelly Roll, to get into the Xmas spirit...

4 bar composite from Bailey

Steve Dunn (MS)

Some guy named Fisk...

 

[Megalobyte]

Well, I'm very fond of both mosaic and multi-bar damascus, and this Kious has both. Both are Eggerling.

And sure, Spirograph isn't exactly rare, but it just looks so good on this XL Dr. Death TnT.

I guess I'll end with this, a Dake D/A folder, with damascus forged by his wife Mary.

 

[Rod Neep]

These ought to have the damascus-haters positively retching

Most admit, I positively droooooled over those

My personal favourite is a lovely "understated" folder by Mel Fassio that I bought recently from Bob Glassman (photo by Bob Glassman)
