What do you think I should call this build? I'm leaning towards "DarkWeave".

[@EbonyPope]

Why do you have to normalize it before welding on the all thread?

[@TyrellKnifeworks]

@@EbonyPope No, normalize AFTER you weld on the all-thread... because the welding will make that area very weak because of the intense heat at the junction.

[@EbonyPope]

@@TyrellKnifeworks Because it gets brittle because of the heat? Then I misunderstood you.

[@swxqt6826]

Darkweave sounds great.

[@pepinosnv1101]

I would call it a DreamWeave, couse if you can dream it you can build it :) fantastic work, although I prefer your Cu- Mai builds a lot more :) if only I could afford one of your knives (the katana is one of my dream swords, and yours looks amazing)

[@Ch33no]

One of the most beautiful knives that I have ever seen.

However it was a pleasure watching you doing this beautiful damascus blade.
