Damascus steel bar/billet for making knife. length 9.64 inches. Width 1.77 inches. Thickness 2.59 MM Approx. Fire pattern. Minor flaws possible as handmade, variation may occur in size or pattern as handmade, please check all the things before buying, All our Damascus is real. Damascus is a mixture of 1095HC and 15N20 nickel carbon. You heat them up together and then fold the bar over and over to get the desired layers, ours are more than 200 true layers. Then you burn the blade in acid, and it turns the nickel satin colour and the high carbon turns blackish gray. This is how the layers are exposed to show the layers of the new steel created coined "Damascus". All Damascus is acid etched to show the layers. If you high polish the metal it will be shinny satin like all steels. Only after you burn the sides of the blade with acid do you see the layers of the two steels. The bar has been annealed at a low Rockwell. Draw your knife pattern on the bar and get started.
