Hey guys!

My wife gifted me a 2 Day workshop in order to forge my first Damascus knife.
The instructor was great so to my absolute surprise I made a very usable knife.
Have a look at the process:

Thank you, I sincerely tried to do my best but most of the credit goes to the instructor, without him I wouldn't even know where to start

Thank goodness your wife knew where to start...............Big can of worms now...
