    Default Nice damascus in burl

    This is a 7/8 razor in damascus that was 4 times 45 layers, with 3 thick layers between them, and then twisted. The wood is stabilized burl. The design is my Arwen design. I really like the randomness in the flow of the larger layers. There is kind of an 'ebb and flow' feeling to it.

    That is nice, the swirls in the blade go well with those in the scales

    The overall package is very nice. The burl is quite attractive, but that damascus is award winning. Well done my friend, well done.

    I think I'm love with this masterpiece. The beautiful burl and the unique damascus complement each other well.

    Beautiful work as always. The pattern in the blade is outstanding!
