Nickel Plated SAE1085 Pellets – 2kg

The Nickel Plated SAE1085 Pellets are ideal for making canister Damascus a.k.a. mosaic Damascus. Further patterns can be made by adding Nickel Foil, and filling up the rest of the voids in the canister with 1085 powder steel, and then weld it together in a forge and using a proper press rather than a power hammer.

The result will be similar to that of the blade on the picture below.

Carbon steels contain carbon as the main alloying element within its chemical composition. They also contain up to 0.4% silicon and 1.2% manganese. In addition, the residual elements such as copper, molybdenum, aluminium, chromium and nickel are present in these steels.
