Description

This Damascus Edged Dane axe is forge welded up from two billets of steel. The body of the axe is forged from one piece of mild steel which has been folded over on its self and then forge welded together The edge steel is 3 pieces 200 layers  forge welded around the blade body making 600 layers at the edge. The pattern in the Damascus is formed when the hammering used to make the axe pushed layers beneath each other, the process of the making is written in the steel! There is a toothy edge to the Damascus

The axe edge is thicker than the material behind it keeping strength at the edge but the weight down.

the ace is quite nimble considering its size it feels light and fast in the hand.
