Lisantica, do you have better pics of that Turkish Twist Sebenza ?

Great photos in this thread!

Thanks for taking the time to share and take photos of such nice work. These blades/knives look spectacular 0.0

Def. learned a bit from reading from Haze as well. Cheers!
 
I'm learning from Haze too. Many times I don't know what I have, I just know I like it.
 
Took a video of her:

What a beautiful knife! Thank you for sharing Lisantica. And thanks all for teaching me a bit more about this type of Damascus. Mike
 
Thanks all for clicking into this thread and commenting.
I did have to sell a couple to get this beauty.
 
You are a magnet for amazing crk's I still don't understand how you find all of these :eek::D
 
Woah, the video really shows how KA your knife is, def blows the pics away.
My eyes practically dropped out when you show the damascus blade moving.
 
Those of you that were at Blade this year may have seen the piece Ron Newton had on his table in the ABS section. It was a sword with a .50 musket mounted on the top/side. That was a spectacular example of Turkish twist damascus and had an amazing shimmer to it. It also had rather tasteful African themed engraving and gold inlay. :):thumbup:
 
Great thread here, I also learned something.
Thanks Haze and lisantica for sharing the photos and video.
 
Gorgeous. Lisantica, If you ever want a well-cared for William Henry damascus, just let me know (trade or sale; I have lots of WH's).
 
Thanks all, wish you had a Mnandi too MVG.
I just dig those small gentleman's/ladies Mnandi.
 
Every day here on BF I learn more and more about the complexities of Damascus. And my appreciation grows. Those are some gorgeous pieces of metallurgy!
 
Soon you will be ready to take the next step up from damascus: Mokume Gane. Actually, it is similar to damascus, but uses copper to create a metal pattern that looks like wood grain (which is what mokume gane means in Japanese). Mokume is not too strong so it is mainly used in bolsters.
