Do you ever do damascus in the Little Buddy model? I'm thinking damascus and mammoth ivory bark would be just the ticket. Here you go Just got pic's of it today. haven't sharpened it or made a sheath yet. 13579, I do alot of rubbin with 1000gt. sandpaper and go to the buffer with med. to extra-fine compound.

TRully stunning,,,, [/quote] No Sir,I have but swingin' a hammer ain't my thing,makes my elbow hurt too bad I prefer to forge the steel into a bar and go to the grinder. Thanks [/quote] E3CK, sorry for the question, so you are making the blade from scratch, or are these blanks you start with.. What grade steal are these, how well do they hold an edge?

Yes Sir. the blades are made from scratch. They hold an edge very well due to the fact that I only usea combination of steels such as O1, 1095, 15n20, L6,etc. in the mix, steels that by themselves make a good knife.
Thanks e3
