The first finished knife of 2024 and quite the journey this has been.
I hadn't tried one of these before and for some strange reason, I decided to use pattern welded steel for the blade and also do a pattern welded frame handle construction.

Nice i have been meaning to make one of these. how did you get the 'blue' coloring?
Nicely done Joshua!
The bluish tinge is a play of the light. The Damascus is black from the 1095. None of the metal has been blued.
Thanks Matt!
