Re: Damascus Blade

Great raindrop pattern. If you are going to put in that much work though maybe you should get some steels you know are going to perform, make the effort about knowing your knife is durable at the end. It would be a shame to spend a hard day hammering to find your blade wont hold an edge. Looking for...

Re: Swine brucellosis:

People need to be clear that you don't have to eat the pigs to get infected. Just handling your kills so you can take photos can expose you and so you should take care to have a way to wash your hands after handling the pigs or wear gloves if you have any cuts or sores on your hands.

Re: What Pens best for writing on Bow??

Something I have seen work well is write on paper and then lam it in. The paper goes clear. That way you can mess up the writing a heap of times and just chuck it rather than have to clean the bow.

Re: Chainsaw blades to Damascus Steel............

Plenty of blades are made of mixed carbon steel (like saw chains) and work as blade well, with good edge holding and good strength. Mild steel has no place in a blade when you can use a good spring steel like 1050 or similar. In pattern welded steel there is not often any need to add distinct layers...

Re: Chainsaw blades to Damascus Steel............

There is no need to use any mild steel in your blade. The chain has differing grades of steel in it already and tempering will make it a useable blade and etching will show a great pattern as is.
