Mokume Gane - (Also known as Mokume) is an ancient metal working technique that originated from Japan. After the deline of the samauri sword, many of the artisans moved into creating beautiful metal worked items. Mokume is a layering of mixed soft metals. The unique layering of the different metals creates a beautiful pattern. Mokume is similar to damascus steel but does not normally include steel in the metal composition.
Damascus Steel - (Also called Pattern Welded Steel) is a combination of two steels forge-welded to create a unique pattern by a folding technique. After a Damascus is finished, it is treated with acid or blued to reveal the grain pattern of the forging and layering process. Once a method for removing impurities for blade smiths, this technique allowed for stronger steel but is now largely used to enhance the beauty of an object.
Titanium - the metal alloy is well known for its light strong and corrosion resistance. The metal has a grey color and is often used in the aerospace, military, medical and tool industries. Titanium has the highest strength to weight ration of any metal.
