Forging a San Mai Hunting Knife - knife making

Hello Everyone! This video shows how I made a clip point hunting knife from 1084 and 15N20. A few firsts for me on this one, forge welding a San Mai billet, making a choil, and coffee etching. I didn't grind a pattern in the outer billet layer because I wanted to see what the result would be with no pattern. Hope you enjoy the video and Thanks for Watching!
