My first damast knife , forged the blade my self.

Last week I forged my first billet of damast, with a lot of help from a good friend, Gudy van Poppel.

I made this knife:

180 layers C100/75Ni8, 5,5 mm at the spine, blade 160 mm, large choil, 130 mm handle. G10 scales.

This will be a user, so no fancy wood.
