Less common Damascus materials
I have have seen many "damascus"' done using some mixture of 1095/1084 with 15n20/l6 used,or maybe 01 substituted in somewhere.
Does anyone have a suggestion for metals to use that might not be quite as common? (or somethings like a 4-layer damascus+) that would still make a good kitchen knife? I care about the blade being able to perform its function well, even if perhaps another mono-steel would be better in this case. Does any one have a mixture if metals they like and would be willing to share? Last edited by danjmath; 10-16-2017 at 08:58 AM. |
