Using a piece of mosaic damascus on side gave me this unique interrupted flow a little like a flat layer damascus on side but with flow and interruption , The knife was completely forged to shape and you can see the flow of the layers into the heel, this reminded me of an Onion,,,, and I chose a piece of tight grained Bocote to go with the knife. I think this is a mosaic damascus piece for the lover of a simple traditional style. Due to the forged geometry the layers will be super highly packed into the edge, the combination of 01/15n20 at 65hrc will outperform any traditional damascus mix in the perfect combination of toughness and high hardness. You get the characteristic toothy wear pattern damascus gives to make an aggressive edge as wear occurs , prolonging the need to touch up even further. The geometry is perfect just thick enough to avoid flex, due to to slightly hollow forged then ground centre geometry the lower geometry is allowed to be much thinner while still offering the change in angle required to give excellent release and break friction. This is as all my Chef knives.
Due to the traditional handle this makes the knife nice and affordable for a very high layer damascus..... for those who prefer simple and clean style and this in a rather unique package.
