That's pretty much the same as mokume, just made up dimensionally different. Sounds like some pretty interesting material for guards. I have "Braze-dipped" fine steel cable to get a twisted steel/brass pattern a few times. Have also stacked, heated and smacked quarters together for a type of mokume.
Are you using any kind of flux to get the bond between the two? ie- flux still on the brazing rod.
