• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

WIP Wootz bowie "brute de forge" and Sambar

I think I own the same lathe! :D

Impressive work. Not being a huge fan of knobby stag, I think the handle looks great.

That's genius!
 
:RÉ This is what must!
Thank you Kevin.
"Stezann", after the heating diffusion, a decarburized skin is created. It helps maintain cohesion of the ingot during forging cycle. To see the paterne, this must be removed skin. But we lose the aspect of "brute de forge". Here the aim was to keep this appearance.
 
Thank You for the explanation, it makes a lot of sense. The final effect is really beautiful!!!
