Forging Damascus
How to Create Pattern-Welded Blades



Jim Hrisoulas



In this extraordinary two-disc video, Jim Hrisoulas brings to like information from two of his best selling books. Step by step, the author of The Complete Bladesmith and The Master Bladesmith take you through the creation of a ten-inch Viking-style dagger, one of his trademark blades.

 

By following Hrisoulas' hands-on guidance, you can learn things that cannot be taught in books, including how to correct problems as they arise, create one-of-a-kind patterns, recognize the proper welding heat, cut pattern rungs precisely, forge to shape, grind and polish a perfect blade.
