1 MILLION layer damascus billet!

[HHH Knives]

Jr came in from the shop today with a strange sort of crazy look in his eye. mumbling something about making a MILLION LAYER damascus billet!

After talking to him about it for a few minutes I quickly realized, I was not going to be able to talk him out of it.. So I said, Go for it!!!

The quest for a Million layers begins! Go Jr. Go!!

Has anyone seen a million layer billet of damascus? I imagine some of the *** swords are over a million layers.

Just thought this would be interesting to share. what do ya think?

Interesting, will there be any pattern left to see? Is he starting with thick stock?

[EdipisReks]

why not go for a billion?

[HHH Knives]

Hers starting with a 25 layer stack.. and going from there! Hes at 500 layers now. and the count will really start jumping up from here! I dont know what the pattern will look like, I imagine its gona look like a bar of 1095 with a little more shimmer! LMAO!

But the edge will be ridiculous!!!

I demand lots of pictures, how long time has it taken? (When he's done that is!)

[HHH Knives]

Nice!! OK so hes at 500 layers now and I have not taken a single picture yet! lol I better break out the camera for this.

If he keeps on working at this pace and everything goes well, It wont be long, Maybe a couple days!
