Review on ๐Ÿ”ช BLD-49 Damascus Steel Billet/Blank Blade: Custom Handcrafted Twist Pattern Bar for Superior Blade Making by Darryl Buck

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Do your research: knife blades

This is an amazing piece of damask. You do need a forge, however, so you can straighten it if it's crooked. If it delaminates you can weld it back together with borax. Guys, you learn before you start a project. Damask must be acid etched to create a pattern after processing. I darkened my instant coffee. That's why it's darker than in the example picture. Before buying, watch a video about the materials you will work with. This was my first damask knife.

Pros
  • cool product
