On Sunday I dropped by at Volker´s to lend him a hand and doing some forging myself. There were a lot of kids again having fun with fire and steel;-).
Daddy was righteously proud of little sonny...
You might be familiar with one of those pictures, but this is Volker again, forging a snake;-).
Blades near the fire;-).
More kids, proud of their achievements!
And those were this knife.... (made from mild steel with no edge as a toy...

had some fun myself. Top: Spring steel, the preform of a Dussak,
Below: Seven bar damascus Kopis knife.
Below: Seven bar damascus utility
