@iylandmuncee Oh and I forgot to ramark about the dagger experiment. First, that photos are messing with my head. The patterns so perfectly match a Blender procedural pattern I keep thinking “Wait, are those real photos?!”
Your recreation is pretty spot on. The only difference is that the pattern in the photo seems to end right at the edges of the axe head. Though not so much with the sword/dagger..maybe the axe is older and more used so the pattern gets rubbed off on the edges.
Anyway cool experiment!
