Based on the photos, it looks like you can faintly see the Damascus pattern under the rust blue. Especially on the rib, but also some in the barrels. And this was pointed out to you in your other thread.
Photos can be deceiving, but these barrels are most likely 100% Damascus.

There is no way to fully hide Damascus pattern. Even when rust blued. In the right light, and in the right spots, you can make out some trace of the pattern. Even polished Damascus will show pattern.

I thought you were selling this gun? Decided to keep it?
