Hand forged Damascus Billets from 1084 and 15N20 Steel. Each Billet is 1.5" wide by 8" long and +- .25" thick. The Billets are rough ground and etched so the pattern is visible. You can buy them Hardened or Unhardened depending on what you are going to do with your Billet. You can also choose the layer count of your Billet. They start at 30 layers and go to 60 layer and 120 layer. The lower layer Billets will have a bolder pattern with fewer lines. The higher layer Billets will have more and finer lines. These are great for the beginning knife maker and are of the best construction and materials available.
