I have always liked Damascus blades but have always wondered about their longevity in real world use. I dont want to buy a knife just to look at I want to use it as well.
How do they hold up? Specifically for hunting knifes? What dies sharpening do to the look of the edge? What is the best way to sharpen them, pull through, lansky, wet stone? And how well do they take and edged and hold it?
I am looking for something like this, not this specifically but just based on looks.

Or the ones on post #13 and #16
I cant afford loads to spend on them so money is an issue. And dont need a "limited" edition either.
Any suggestions of knifes along these lines?
