Hand Forging Feather Pattern Damascus Steel

Ғылым және технология

It's my first attempt of making a feather pattern damascus steel, started from 2 billets made of 3 types of steel: O2, K600, NC6, after few folding I added some NCV1(wood saw) steel between layers.
This project was the biggest challenge for me so far, feather pattern damascus steel is not easy, require decent amount of imagination and lots of hammering specialty with out power tools. This video showes hoewer that damascus steel mosaick pattern is possible to make eaven with out power hammer or forging press.
Thanks for watching :)

    No fancy forge, forging press, power hammer, or CNC, yet one of the most beautiful pieces I've seen here. Thank you.

    How were you not recommended in my search for blacksmiths? Upper body strength like a gorilla. That's some impressive hammering I just witnessed, beats having to need power tools to accomplish the same goal.

    You are very talented, ive bern trying to make damascus but the layers just wont stick, any tips? For example how do i know the rigth temperature

  • @PaveW

    @PaveW

    4 жыл бұрын

    It's not easy to get any tips, temperature control is very important especially on the first forge welding. Sometimes the billet looks hot enough outside but inside temperature its still too low, I like to keep billet longer in the forge before first forging. Care must also be taken to not over heath the billet because steel will lose carbon, and some of them may even crack. Also the first hammering on the billet should be gentle after some time when you can see that everything looks good you can strike much harder. The best you can do it's just keep practise.

    the fact you did it by hand is really cool. All I ever see is the press or hammer doing these. What kind of time frame did it take you to do this. I have not tried forge welding to this point because it seems like you needed a press or hammer to do this.

    its pattern-welded steel, not Damascus real woots Damascus is a single piece of metal that isn't folded the vanadium in the metal is what makes the pattern it still takes a lot of time to make this product and I'm not knocking on skill but we can't keep using the incorrect terms we don't call every shiny steel stainless steel.... pattern wielded steel was created in order to replicate the patterns of woots Damascus without having the access to the same ores the only real way to tell the difference is to look at the grain structure under a microscope

    I think that most people know it but colloquially everyone is saying damascus steel on it and it is hard to change it now. The truth is that we can't reproduce a real historical Damascus steel, woots are closer to the original, but still it's not.
