Hi,

Don't know what happened to me the other day, but suddenly I found myself on the 63th page of one of my wife's esotery books. Sometime mysterious things happen, when sitting on the iron throne (WC :pirate: ) I usually don't believe in spiritual things like reincarnation, wandering spirits or any kind of supernatural stuff, but at least it gave me a good idea :D
So, I made the Jin Jang - in damascus of course! ;) :rolleyes:

Unfortunately I don't have fancy stuff like Ebony and Ivory, so I used what I found in the shop.
Both are 20 cm long with 9.5 cm long blades. The blades are forged of the same 60 layered damascus bilet of 5160 and 1.2516 tool steels.
The handles are made of dark walnut and stripped maple, with a little bit of antler.


And now, behold the pictures!
