Engraving in gold

Engraving in gold

Friends of the forum
I wish to show my last work's some photos. He carried time desiring to make a kind of gold incrustation, but in lukewarm steel ( damask ). The latter that I did and my first the Spyderco that I showed a little while ago on the set went suchlike, but in this case he was very soft steel and it can be worked up very well trouble-free. But he had the challenge to do it in lukewarm steel and with a little design, that increments the difficulty.
The pocketknife is a Mongin, than my friend darling Abel Domenech , almost a brother for me, gently it had the pleasure to give me as a present he does a time and the slope had to engraved it for my personal collection.


A greeting
Antonio

Friends of the forum
I want to show some pictures from my last job. Llevaba time wanting to do a kind of gold inlay, but in the tempered steel (fashion). The last thing I did, and my first of its kind was the Spyderco that showed recently at the forum, but in this case it was very soft steel and can work very well without problems. But the challenge was to do so in mild steel and small design, which increases the difficulty.
The knife is a Mongin, which my dear friend Abel, almost a brother to me, was graciously pleased to buy some time and had outstanding save for my personal collection.


Greetings
Antonio

The incrustation of the gold thread in hardened steel, she turned out to be quite difficult and I had to use myself in depth to get to incrust the gold.
