Steel thickness & type for Damascus blades - Hot Work
网页Posted October 21, 2019. I am new to making Damascus blades. 15N20 seams to be the desired steel for the silver appearance in the Damascus pattern. Other carbon steels such as 1080/1084, O1, W1, 1095 are all listed as good steal to partner with 15N20. Looking thru the knife blade material suppliers shows various thicknesses of each of these steels.
which steels pair well for damascus? - Bladesmith's Forum Board
网页2017年1月24日 — Gender:Male. Location:Branson, Mo. Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) I think that you will find that most will prefer 1080/1084 & 15N20. 15N20 is basically 1075 plus 1.5% nickel. (You want some nickel in one of the two steels for contrast.) These two steels weld easily and are very compatible.
5160 1095 super damascus, - Bladesmith's Forum Board
网页On 1/20/2011 at 4:48 PM, jackdog20 said: I was reading a book on pattern welding and it mentioned super Damascus. It recommended using 01 and 1050. But I was wondering if 5160 and 1095 would leave a good contrast and not cause any other problems down the line. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
Pros/Cons of Damascus Blade - Bushcraft USA Forums
网页2011年10月5日 — pros: the look. cons: eventually you will get into the nature stone sharpening to get the most out of the contrast of steel, again its the look. and nature stones are much harder to find a right way to get into it. but once you get into it, its endless. you will throw your chosera/sharpton away right away. and for the nature stone, sky is your limit.
Advice on darkening damascus? - Bladesmith's Forum Board
网页2021年2月28日 — For damascus paaterns, do the acid etching as normal to get some topography, spray with black, let dry and sand off the 15N20 (as normal), then spray with satin clear and bake on. Very dark dark, very nice contrast and should be very long lasting, but questionable food safe-ness. Edited March 15, 2021 by billyO.
Finishing a Damascus Steel Ring - Bladesmith's Forum Board
网页2011年1月3日 — Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) Ive fitted liners to a couple or 3 damascus rings, simply put I roll a piece of 925 silver into a ring (a touch smaller in diameter than I need)solder it shut, anneal & pickle. Then expand it (rollers or mandrel) so its a press fit into the steelwork, protruding a couple of mm each side.
Damascus Steel Knives - Bushcraft USA Forums
网页Aug 9, 2016. #1. There always seems to be mystery behind Damascus steel and knives. I've looked into the process of making the steel and the layers, minimum 300 folds, that create this very durable metal. The metal is forged from 1095 and 15N20. My understanding is that the swirls seen on the blade is the different metals that were forged ...

How is Damascus Steel for a bushcraft knife?
网页2017年4月14日 — NJ. Sep 13, 2022. #3. As one writer says, Damascus is tye-dye for knives. Doesn't hold up any better (in fact could hold up worse based on steels required to make it) and doesn't stay any sharper. Best bet if you want a tough blade for bushcrafting is to go for 3V, AEBL, M4, CruWear, Magnacut, A2, O1, S7, etc.
etching damascus - Beginners Place - Bladesmith's Forum Board
网页2017年3月17日 — Yes. Generally speaking, you want to be at about a 400 grit finish or better to get an even etch across the pattern. If you are having trouble getting Ferric, try using Muriatic. This is commonly sold in home improvement stores and pool supply stores in gallon jugs. Dilute it about 4:1 water to acid.
