[/quNo I order mine from Alabama Damascus. I order it in bar stock or in pieces around 6"x12". I tried making my own one time and it took so long with my little forge that I would have to charge $5,000 a knife to make it worth it. Theres alot of work in it. They have big industrial forges and air hammers and can turn out a piece pretty quick. Its still pretty expensive to buy but it beats making it. I cut out, grind, and temper my own blades. Alot of people by pre made and heat treated blades and put a handle on them and call them hand made. I dont call that hand made but to each his own. I also make knives out of carbon tool steel, spring steel, files, hoof rasp, horse shoes and old saw mill blades.

Very nice work. I love the way a Damascus blade looks when it's been done properly. Probably my favorite style of blade material.
