The spurs are forged from ladder-pattern W’s damascus made up of 1084 and pure nickel, then polished and nitre-blued. They were made by Rick Dunkerley.

The jellyroll pattern starts with a low three-to-seven-layered billet of flat laminates. The billet is drawn out into a rectangular bar and one end is tapered.

The tapered end is cut square and rolled back onto the bar by hammering it over the edge of the anvil. It requires several heats to completely roll the bar, and then the handle is cut off of the bar and welded to the center of the roll. The billet is then reheated, fluxed and forge welded into a square bar.
