i foraged a blade

Nice blade! :thumbup: What kind of steel?

thanks , the Initial material is high carbon steel, and i forged it .
just add temperature to the red color,then folded up many times .
after cooling ,cause the diferenet proportion of carbon,it will have some patterns like damascus ,especially, after some Pickling Technology，the patterns will show up more clearly.
well called it (花纹&#38050，
you can call it "chinese damascus "

beauty!!, it looks nature, not as rigid as “Middle East style"

Dingy, I really like the shape of that blade - it is awesome! You've got the shape perfect; you must have some artistic blood in you.

Nice work!

Ah! Pics! I like!

I like the long handle on that khuk, are you going to keep it that long? Gives it a nifty look thats not common.

Wow! I am impressed. Nice forging work. The close up of the damascus looks great. Do you own the forge and furnace area? It looks like a great set up!
