1st hand hammered laminated steel
Some time ago I made my first multi layer billet, using 5 alternating layers of O2 and 15N20. It was more like an experiment to see if I could do it. The forge welding part was a success. There were no inclusions or delaminations. I did not anticipate the amount of steel I would lose to scale, and I also did not understand that both sides should be hammered more or less equally. The billet was sound so I decided to make a razor out of it.
This is the result. You can see both sides are not similar. This is because I hammered one side more than the other, causing the billet to dish out some. Still, I think the end result looks nice.
The scales are shamrock's luck shokwood.
Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.
