It looks like there's pattern on the barrel flats. Wouldn't that eliminate the possibility of "faux" Damascus?

The pattern is beautiful. I'm biased, but restored they would look wonderful. The real question would be Black or Brown?

I prefer wood to plastic, leather to nylon, waxed cotton to Gore-Tex, and split bamboo to graphite.
