Robert Burns Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Here is a recent knife I finished (about a month and a half ago) that I had photographed by Caleb Royer and to say the least I am always pleased with his work and how he can capture all of the subtle details in the woods and damascus patterns. I have really been enjoying playing with the twisted jellyroll damascus and believe it to be a highly untapped source of pattern development. That being said this knife is a multibar of alternating standard 30 layer twist with a twisted jelly roll. All comments are welcome and thanks for looking. Specs: Specs: Steel: multibar damascus of standard twist and jellyroll Blade Length: 8 1/4 inches Blade Width: 1 3/4 inch Spine thickness: 1/4 Handle Length: 5 1/2 inches Total Length: 13 3/4 Guard material: brass and stainless steel Handle materials: water buffalo horn, stabilized madrone burl, and stainless steel pin. Sheath: 9 oz veg tan leather with rawhide overlay and artificial alligator skin inlay on the belt loop. Sole Authorship.

Austin_Lyles Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Love this knife! For me at least, it's hard to discern what's going on in the Damascus. Not in a bad way of course! Do you have a close up of it possibly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Burns Posted August 7, 2015 Author Share Posted August 7, 2015 Thanks for the comments everyone. Austin here is a closer view of the pattern. It was six bars three standard twist of 30 layers and the other three bars were twisted jelly roll bars so much tighter. http://www.wildernessironworks.org/http://www.facebook.com/WildernessIronworksRobert Burns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
