The Steel
400 layers of 15n20, 400 layers of 1095
Forged into twisted W's, then twisted 40 times to make the final billet
The number 40 symbolizes hardship, judgement and testing
This dagger represents my greatest test as a bladesmith so far
The Trinity
Three Damascus acorns
Three silver wires in each twisted inlaid strand
Three textures - Parkerized steel, peened bronze, and Damascus
The balance of three strengthens the one
Blade Show - Table 13P. Hope to see you in Atlanta.
