Bob: to my eye, those "Turc Extra" or Extra-fine 4 Iron Turkish "Star" pattern barrels are the most attractive damascus produced. Note the alternating 'stars' of black (iron) and white (steel) between the symmetric scrolls.
This is Dr Gaddy's example from his Pattern Board



Could you please post high resolution ultra close up images, or send by jpg attachment to revdoc2@cox.net and thanks!

And I believe redoftx will find a spectacular herringbone pattern underneath the blueing.
