16 "ALCHEMY" by Jensen Knives
16: The raw material for "ALCHEMY": the Jensen forged Damascus blade, CP grade Titanium handle slab (double-disc ground to match the same precision thickness of the blade), a large sheet of 1/16" (.0063) thick 6al4v grade Titanium for the liners, two rectangles of "Timascus" (pattern welded Titanium), a large oval slice of Copper/Ti/Ni Superconductor (as exotic as it gets! The “Superconductor” slice is a remnant copper/titanium/niobium conductive wire from the super-collider project, built, but later abandoned before completion by the US Government in the 90's. Made from a matrix of titanium and niobium wires pulled thru a copper core, superconductor was (going to be) used to move electricity in the particle accelerator. (I got this from a guy who purchased all the leftover material from the government) In addition, for the handle scales; a fossil Walrus Ivory Eskimo artifact that was once used as a sled runner, and multiple copies of the original drawing of "ALCHEMY". In addition, I’m also going to be incorporating some Carbon Fiber. You can see the blade in conjunction to the drawing is semi-forged to shape.
