Beautiful! In the 80s and 90s we all soldered the guards on because we were all taught by Moran we HAD too lol. The only reason we did it was so there could never be any corrosion between the guard and tang where it’s impossible to clean, not like a knife that beautiful is ever going to be abused! You newer generation make knives much nicer than we ever did (except a handful of old guys, they might be on par with you, guess that’s why they all had backlogs of 5-10 years).

The coffee etch also adds a layer of rust protection to the blade. It’s not a scratch resistant finish though and can be marred. You could redo the coffee etch it you are careful to protect the handle.

Nice work as usual, however I would have done the coffee darkening a little different. First I mix my coffee up (20oz to 1 gallon of water) then buff the blade to strip all of the oxides off post etch. (obviously you need to clean the buffing compound off) I then wait for the coffee solution to come down to about 100 F, place the blade in it overnight and hit it with a sunshine cloth after washing and drying. No wax needed. I typically don't use wax as it makes it a bit more difficult to re-etch the blade if needed.

Patina is a fact of life with carbon blades. The coffee etch will help but not prevent it completely. If the patina bothers you then a very light sanding with 2000 grit paper or sunshine cloth will return it to new.

I really like the wax finish. Do you keep them waxed instead of oiled or is the wax just an initial treatment? I’m not sure why but I’ve never tried heating the blade to apply wax. I use a mix of beeswax, carnauba wax, and mineral oil. It’s in a liquid form hence why I haven’t used heat. But this video makes me wonder if it would do better with heat.

I have two bandsaws.. a horizontal one I use for cutting stock. It's essential if you want to do mosaic damascus. I have a portaband for doing general metal/wood sawing that requires curves. If I need straight cuts on wood I use my table saw. I don't have a big wood cutting bandsaw, I just don't have the shop space for it nor enough use cases. I hope that helps.
sir i love damascus i saw alot of your videos i dont know you will do or not but if you dont mind can you make anything like dagger or knife whatever you want with multiple layers of copper and steel damascus i mean 20 or 30 layers what ever you like i would love to watch that video regards
Should you rinse it in acetone before rinsing it in water and then adding it to the Ferric chloride?

Yes, that’s good practice.
Good morning Denis, this is a bit off topic, but ive been curious how that one blade came out where drops of oil may have made its way into the ferric vat causing that interesting result. Did the effect hold?

Yes, those blades looked great and were the first to sell at Blade show!
Curious to know why you dont epoxy the guard on too? Might not be at all necessary but why not do it?

The epoxy flows into the bottom of the guard when the handle goes on. Thanks for watching.
How was IMG electromark to work with? After clicking on the link it was a little confusing as to what specifically i was looking for. I am guessing it was Photographic Stencils. Great Vid btw i learned a ton.

Honestly their website is confusing and they kinda suck at email. Best to call them and tell them what you want. Patricia is great to work with. You just send her an image and tell her what size you want the stencils and she'll send you a proof of it very quickly. Thanks for watching!
Would johnstons paste wax work for this? Instead of car wax?

So, what is the Rockwell hardness of the Nickel incorporated into the blade edge, 8-12?
@TyrellKnifeworks

You are confused. There’s no pure nickel in this build. The 15n20 steel has only 2% nickel which doesn’t affect its hardness and it easily achieves 60 hrc after temper. Thanks for watching.
any reason that you don't add the coffee before pouring the hot water?

It tends to be a muddy puddle at the bottom and it's harder to mix. If you add it after, it's easier to mix it since it drops to the bottom and mixes in as it does. Good questions though.
How much water did you use at time 9:37 and how much coffee did you use at time 10:00?

You mix about 2 cups of instant coffee with 1 gallon of water.
How many fluid ounces of boiling water do you add to the coffee and how much coffee powder do you add to the boiling water?

Use half to 2/3rds of a container in about a gallon of water.
Un adevărat profesionist. Foarte frumos. De unde îți vin ideile? Cu cafea? Am reținut. Stima pentru munca depusă.

Gravarea cafelei nu este ideea mea, este un procedeu destul de cunoscut cu producătorii de cuțite care lucrează cu damascul. Multumesc pentru vizionare!
I like your wife showing an interest. If you ever run out of ideas, have her make her first knife under your instruction and film the journey for us.
