I make a Damascus steel blade out of 300 sharp calligraphy nibs and powdered steel.
Thank you all for your support in the comments. I'm still relatively safe. Today is the 466st day of the war.

On my patreon page, I began to explain the processes and secrets of my work. Topics already covered:
1. Why do I add pepper to container Damascus steel.
2. What do I sprinkle? Flux and its composition.
3. How do I remove the container from the workpiece (container Damascus steel).
4. Why am I drilling a hole in a container.
5. Why do I sweep away the dross from the anvil with my hand.
6. Why do I first forge some blanks on a tree.
7. In what and why do I soak the blank before forging.
8. In which granules do I place the workpiece after forging.
9. What kind of white powder do I pour into the container.
10. In what liquid do I develop the pattern on the blade.

Ah yes. Way back in 2001 my art teacher introduced us to calligraphy. She let us pick the pen and ink we wanted to learn with. The pens were all stored in cups with the nibs facing up so they don't rust after cleaning (they were never clean due to it being high school). I set my wrist on top of a set of nibs to go through the cup of pens next to it. When I lifted my hand an extra fine pen nub had impaled my wrist. It didn't hurt so I pulled it out. Later while I was washing my hand I noticed a black dot on my wrist. It wouldn't wash off. I still have the black dot to this day though it's quite faded at this point. And that's how I got my first tattoo.

@@camojoe83there is no alloying going on here. No mixing of the metals. He used the nibs for an etchable carbon steel that contrasted with the hardenable stainless steel powder.

I follow him through different channels, not continuously, but for years. I know him by his way of working and the tools in his workshop. I have a collection of over two hundred knives, some razors and broad ones. Some with more than three hundred years old. And I just want to tell you that you are one of the best knife makers I've ever met, and I'm 68 years old. I wish you a long and pleasant life. 🇪🇸🙂 👍🎋

Such a cool pattern design. I love how it looks wavy and textured. So glad to see you're still mastering the art of damascus and that you're safe. Stay safe my friend. This world is a much better place with you, and your countrymen in it.

I always thought that fast tap power hammer was for show, but after watching many videos I have noticed it near instantly flattens and straightens the billet of steel, no matter how thick or thin. Its actually pretty cool.
