To be precise, the pattern is caused by alternating twisted and stacked ribbons of malleable iron and steel, hand forged together. The different Fe compositions oxidize at different rates and create the color, assisted by a bath of logwood dye. Damascus barrels vary, a few have names assembled into the Damascus pattern. Others like Bernards were the designer barrels of their day and very costly. Last edited by Bruce Day; 04-18-2010 at 11:08 AM.. |

Here's the product I mentioned earlier. BIG 45 Frontier Metal Cleaner, Rust and Dirt Remover. When used with a solvent like Hoppe's or CorrosionX For Guns from Corrosion Technologies Corp. you probably will not need to send your barrels out to be refinished. Certainly this advice doesn't apply to everybody's barrels but from what I can see of yours, they are not faded but are only covered with old dried oil and grime. At least try cleaning them before sending them to be refinished.
