Method of making "Damascus" blades
A method of making a steel article having a "Damascus" surface pattern wherein a steel melt comprising about 1.0 to about 2.0 weight % carbon is solidified to form an ingot, the ingot is heated between about 1100 DEG to about 1299 DEG C. for a time at temperature of about 5 to about 12 hou...

Zusammenfassung: | A method of making a steel article having a "Damascus" surface pattern wherein a steel melt comprising about 1.0 to about 2.0 weight % carbon is solidified to form an ingot, the ingot is heated between about 1100 DEG to about 1299 DEG C. for a time at temperature of about 5 to about 12 hours, a malleable envelope is formed about the ingot separately or concurrently with the heat treatment, and the enveloped ingot is shaped (e.g., forged) initially at an ingot temperature above the Ar-gr temperature but below the liquidus temperature and then at an ingot temperature below the Acm temperature. The envelope is then removed from the shaped ingot. |
