The point is to put the rope in the bucket. Thats my personal bowie i am cutting with. Bit over 314 million layers of steel from the revolutionary war to modern times.
@Jerry Fisk "...Bit over 314 million layers of steel from the revolutionary war to modern times." Could you please explain what you mean by that statement for us novices?
In the damascus steel. I folded, folded, inserted other steels etc until i had over 314 million layers. The most i ever did in a blade was over 750 million layers of steel. Steels were a gun barrel from the revolutionary war and one from a barret 50 cal sniper barrel, a wheel from a yankee cannon, steel from ww1 and ww2 was from a tram track in the bombing of Pearl Harbor, there was steel from #2 of the twing Towers, gcable from the Golden Gate bridge, model T car, airolanes, bridges, saw blades for the Timber workers, lots of other steels in the mix, all forge welded together with a 2 pound hammer.
That definitely is a family heirloom. Amazing, whenever you hold it in your hand, you're truly reaching back in time and touching history...
