Not strictly in my realm, but interesting, nonetheless. The perception that the blade is Damascus is likely pareidolic--the grinding/sanding of the surface, combined with the manner in which the corrosion established itself, might only be making it look Damascus at a glance. Need sharper/ higher res. pics!

Please post a link to a thread on another forum, so we may follow along.
