osage/damascus
« on: June 09, 2008, 08:40:00 PM »
Well, this is my first attempt with a full tang blade. I learned a few things. It's osage with ebony and .030 bloodwood stripes next to the tang. I made the mosaic pins myself. They're not perfect, but I like 'em and they were alot cheaper than already made ones.

Mike,
 Thats an excellent combination of woods and damascus steel.  I REALLY like that first pic alot. That sun streak gives the blade an eyeball and makes it look like a shark.      :bigsmyl:  
Great job on the mosaic pins too!

Very nice work
 
 Would like more detail on the pins and how you did those
 
 The handle realy sets it off.

I like the way the bloodwood sets everything else off even with just a small stripe. Cool pins, cool beans!
