Knife Ten-A 72 Layer Star Twist Pattern Sheath Knife

I made this knife for myself from mild steel and O1 tool steel. There are 72 layers
and I left it thicker than needed after forging, so I would grind into the steel to
to expose the star twist pattern. The blade is 4 1/2 inches long, the guard is brass
and the handle is Mexican Rosewood.

Here is a picture after hardening:



Here is the finished knife:
