This came to me with an (IMo) ugly forced patina and some scratches from sharpening. I sanded it with 2000 grit sandpaper to remove it, but it’s still a little rough finish wise.

Still has OOTB edge, still sharp. Not much else to say.

Homebutcher special. Tried cutting and the heavily etched finish was draggy. Decided to try polishing. Handle is epoxied on and won’t come off. 75% through 600 grit right now. Will cut good but looks pretty scratchy as is. Haven’t made progress on this project so selling it for a low price.
Dammy has some inclusions and voids as expected of scrap steel damascus. Bevels are actually pretty evenly ground, although the tip is overground.
