That video here shows nicely how you produce twisted layers, but i took just one twisted bar for this knife here, Andrew took five.

hmm material was 120 usd, working time just for the blade +-60 hours, it's just my hobby to forge tings like that so i don't take the regular price for an hour of work from 50 usd. I take just 20 usd per our for commissions, so if you make the bill it would take: 1320 usd for just the not sharpened blade, without handle. In fact it's cheap, a knife forged in the same way of an bladesmith takes 3-6 thousand usd.
But tat blade ere is a gift for my parents^^
