Bob, I do forge a lot, but this was a stock removal blade. I just don't have the skill with a hammer to do much on steel as thin as this. I find that most of my blade forging is done on round stock or thicker flat stock. I'd love to see some of that san mai you've been making! I've made a fair amount of layered damascus, but I haven't tried any san mai yet. It would be hard for me to keep the center steel in the center working with hand held hammers, I think. I need to get off my rear and build me a press!
Leatherwork is a big challenge for me, but this sheath is the best I've made to date, as far as utility goes. It rides just where I want it and holds the knife tight enough without being too tight, thanks to a good bit of helpful advice from the local Tandy store.
