Good day,

The post apocalyptic barbed wire damascus knife presented earlier now has a big brother :)
I have attached additional in the making w.i.p. pictures, because I heard that some of you folks like these kind of stuff.
The blade has been forged of old barbed wire, two thin layers of L6 and a thick 5160 core.
The knife's total length is 29,5 cm, the blade is 17 cm long, 36 mm wide and 5 mm thick. So it is bigger and longer than the first one :D .
I made the handle from the same components as the other one: antler and leather.
Used the same natural veg tanned thick leather for the sheath with hemp rope to make it more "authentic" (if there is such a thing, speaking of post apocalypse?! :) and with an extra beaten up look to make it appear more rugged.

How do you like it?

I see you're in Transylvania also known in Hungarian as Erdelyi, that is an awesome looking blade and sheath, they compliment each other very well.

I need to pm you I'd love to have knife from Transylvania, a knife made in Erdelyi. :)

Knice work Szilárd. :)
 
I'm amazed. I've taken perfectly clean steel and had trouble getting it to weld. Very cool.

Yes I am, and also am a hungarian! :D
But it is only named Erdely. Erdelyi means someone or something from Erdely ;)
 
That's pretty cool. The sheath looks appropriate for the style as well.:thumbup:
