Bazooka Joe Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Decided I'm going to make myself a decent knife, so steel being the main ingredient, I'm wanting a Blank Damascus Blade, preferably 6" long, with a 4" handle, wide, drop point. I've trawled the Web but haven't come across anything I like, so, has anyone got a decent link that might fit my needs. Cheers, BJ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazooka Joe Posted January 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Hi WB, interesting thread...but I want to make this myself, thanks for the offer. I've an old Damascus 12g myself, but before I decide to doctor it into the shape I need, I thought I would have a look around the Net first. I've seen a few, but there not excatly what I want, so I'm not wanting to rush into things. Basically I was looking for a link that maybe I didn't find on google. Thanks for the reply, BJ.

Dunkield Posted February 11, 2009 Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 BJ, I am fairly sure Attleborough Accesories do Damascus blades Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazooka Joe Posted February 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) Thanks for the replies, & the link. KR, that's a cracking link, some excellent Damascus Steel as well, some £10 an inch, sounds like our lass...lol...what, so it'll cost £30 then, I hear an echo.. :( Stuart I've the latest catalog from Attleborough's, they used to do a few a couple of years ago, but not now, mainly all Stainless Steel. What I've done lately is acquired a set of Damascus Barrels from a member on this site, I know my intention was to start with a ready made blade, but I want to make my own, & a bit crack on the mobile changed my mind. So buying a ready made Damascus Billet is last on the list, mind you, looking at KR link I'm very temped at a few of the patterns. So the process starts, I'm on with making a Small Gas Forge, to suit my needs, it'll also come in for a few other projects. Up till now I've heated & separated the barrels/top & bottom ribs, cut one to length, split it, & now it's ready to Forge. So until the rest of the gear lands, I'm at a stand still, Cheers, BJ.

nipper Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Just had a look on Ebay ? Knives all over the place When are they going to ban them . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazooka Joe Posted February 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 If you buying Damascus blades off Ebay, be aware that some of the sales are not Damascus Steel...some, not all, just have the effect printed on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
