Hi gentlemen

I would like to show how I make knife of damask feathers.
Unfortunately I only have two hands. I can not take pictures during forging.
Therefore, some photos are missing. Mainly steel welding.
Damascus steel is made of steel Wnr. 1.1645 and Wnr. 1.1259.
The handle is made ​​of Amboina and buffalo horn.

Thanks for the photos to show how much work it is to weld up patterned steel like that. :cool:
 
There's a sequel.

Salve Roman

Thanks for showing us. Great work and nice feather damascus.

Roman,
Can you give me any more information on how you welded the threaded rod (mild steel) to the high-carbon tang? Did you use a MIG or stick welder? Did you have to preheat the joint to get the weld to stick?
Thanks in advance.
Erin
 
Amazing craftsmanship Roman!
Stunning Damascus!

thanks for sharing,

dirk

Hi

I use coated electrode Böhler FOX 7018.
Discord keeps very well.
Thorn in the handle is secured with epoxy glue.
Thread then loses purpose.
 
Hi
Today I progressed.
