[@vakso8129]

I would recommend doing a whole line of different blades with this pattern. The final product is so distinct and clean looking compared to so many Damascus patterns.

[@lass_isolet]

What did he do to make that pattern? Is it because how he twist the steel bar?

[@Zie_carpentry]

@@lass_isolet 👍☑️☑️

[@blueghost.]

@@lass_isolet Damascus steel patterns are formed by welding two kinds of steel (usually a high carbon or stainless steel) in a folding and twisting manner. There are many different techniques that can be used to form a Damascus steel pattern however all will in some way involve welding several layers of steel to form one single piece, this single piece will then hold the unique Damascus steel pattern as the finished product.

[@MPBushman]

Wow! That fit was almost supernatural. Another masterpiece. Stay safe, my friend. The world needs you.

[@Hydrazine1000]

It's much more mundaine though. At a guess, the two starting pieces have been wire EDM'ed (electrical discharge machining, or spark discharge machining) with full CNC control over the form. Supernatural or not, the result is magnificent!

[@MPBushman]

@@Hydrazine1000 In my opinion, there is nothing mundane about Shurap's work. You probably know more than me though.

[@Hydrazine1000]

@@MPBushman Sorry, I meant no disrespect. It's just that the fit of the two starting pieces is all just CNC programming. It's a really really snug fit, but that's all due to the method by which the sunburst and inverted sunburst are cut. So amazing engineering, rather than magic :) (Wire EDM cutting can be so accurate that, by eye, you cannot see the the transition between the two pieces.)

[@BeingFireRetardant]

@@Hydrazine1000 Still, there's not four thousandths of an inch between, maybe less. And the end result, with overlapping basket weave structure down the spine is relatively amazing...

[@MPBushman]

@@Hydrazine1000 Sorry, I was just busting your chops a little bit. I follow many dozens of blacksmith and blade maker videos and only the tiniest percentage employ advanced techniques like that, so the word mundane seemed excessive by that measuring stick.

Yeah I still don't get how the vertical patern got made from the horizontal one. I always thought like you said intricate patterns had to be tiled out. This guy and Kyle Royer really have master crafted blades.

[@kickmonlee3390]

@@sanguinetales the sun like pattern was twisted so the spokes you see on the knife alternate between pointing towards the knife's edge and like 45 degrees off it. The smaller spokes on the knife are the slightly off angled ones and the larger spokes are the ones that aligned with the blades plane. Idk why some of the spokes are bent all funny but that might be because of the center metal was slightly more malleable than the outer metal and so it deformed more during the smithing process.

I absolutely LOVE the way you draw the heated material out by starting the press from where the tip will be and working down to where the hilt will be - instead of the other way around. Lotta people don’t realize that that method of pressing still draws the material out, but simultaneously *compacts* and strengthens it at the same time, rather than just spreading it thin. I would absolutely kill to have a “Spirit of Lightning” damascus pattern sword forged by you in the Viking-style, single-edged blade and hilt profile. Such a sword would be the stuff of Legend.
