Default Damacus black &white

Just finished these barrels for a member here. I think they turned out very nice??? I'm not going to mention the member, just in case he's not pleased...haha! But i need to thank him for being patient! I have had a very busy spring with two boys in soccer and now both in baseball. This time of year i don't get much shop time.
They are prolly a bit darker than say Dale's, but i did get the contrast i/member wanted. I think the bottom rib shows great contrast! Let me know what you think.

A very good job. How many have you done to date? Is this the first set you've done other than your own?

Other than some of my own, just over a dozen that i remember. I started out rust bluing then Dale talked me into giving it a try. He has been a big help!

Travis,
I love the look. My original damascus barrels are a bit darker as well. I have a few for you to do. I'll try to call you soon.

Default Very nice Travis...

I really like the dark, bold contrasting pattern. I have a set of DH10 barrels in need of some attention...
