    Hi Paul that was a beautiful blade to look at on video. But it was the smaller details you incorporate that will make it more than a beautiful knife to use. The balance just slightly forward of the handle superb ! I could go on more but I'll leave it for others to spot in the build video 😀 thanks bro Anthony Kent

    Mohamat Riduwan modern day Damascus refers to pattern welded steel that’s actually worse than a mono steel blade would be. Historically it was wootz current day steel is much stronger than Damascus or wootz

    A little tip you could have done for the blade is put clay over the spine of the blade so when you quench it, the spine stays soft while the edge stays hard so the spine will absorb all the hits the edge takes. I learned this from Forged in Fire and thought you would find it useful. You could also use refractory cement from watching Marek Tabi's Katana video. I hope this tip helps you in future projects 😁
