Newest knife! I had a lot of fun making this one!! Tried some new techniques and styles

I was browsing the Böker store today, looking for some inspiration.

That's when I noticed this knife made of meteorite damask steel. My question:

How would you achieve a pattern like that?

It looks like canister damask. But how are these specific shapes achieved? Are those small cubes and steel powder? Or are there rods running through the entire canister, with the gaps filled with steel powder?

I’d love to hear your ideas. Thanks in advance!

Hey guys I’m kind of new to knife making and wanted to share this kitchen knife here. I messed up the handle but all in all I’m mostly happy how it turned out. Please feel free to comment and criticize.
Also excuse my bad Englisch.

3rd up in this batch of 4 upcoming custom Abrams is this absolute BANGER featuring an acid stonewashed CPM-154 blade @62 hrc ground thin (10 thou bte thickness) with a handle of epic red/purple @derangeddonkey resin with @carbonwaves red GITD liners 😎 Paired beautifully with a premium black leather sheath made by the skilled @trilobiteleatherworks Thanks for looking!🫡

Some test pieces to see what the new machine can do. It’s a polish 2x72 with VFD. I have installed water cooling for the extra freshness. Carbide platen to follow soon.

Steel is 1.2842, with a pretty maximalist heat treat. Austenising hot and then cryo for the retained austenite. Ground basically to zero with a compound grind. Wood is desert iron wood and one piece of stabilised burl.

Same as some others I've worked on of late, it's canister Damascus > nickel > bandsaw blade > nickel > 52100

I’ve been building this chef knife for my father’s 80th birthday. He’s visiting for Thanksgiving, so I’m trying to finish up…I got bogged down in the sanding, got it to a 320 grit after several hours and just wasn’t happy with progress. I need more practice…

Anyway, I decided to do a mustard patina to give it some character. Here it is after three hours.

Design by me. 1084 stock removal, heat treated and tempered by me. Olive wood scales, brass pins with a custom beaver pin. Guess all I have left is sharpening! And maybe mustard patina on the tang…

Just started this week. This is my 4th sheath and first one going to someone. Any pointers?
