Multi Layer/Pattern Welded Knife



This is my first successful multi layer blade. I started with about 1"x1/8"x4" pieces of wrought iron/15n20/1084/15n20/ wrought iron. The knife has a 7 1/2" blade, is almost 11 3/4" overall, and is an 1/8"- at the spine. No power hammer or fancy belt grinder yet, so this was a lot of hammering, filing, and sanding. Sheath was made with vegetable tanned cow hide and waxed linen thread, wet formed and dyed dark.
