Herringbone Mokume

This one’s got rhythm. Herringbone Mokume Gane moves like flowing fabric, like wood grain caught in a storm—sharp, deliberate, and full of life. Made from 200 meticulously layered sheets of contrasting metals, it forms a bold chevron pattern that pulls your eye across the surface, revealing a texture that’s both organic and engineered. Every billet tells a different story, where the fusion of metals creates a depth you can feel.

We craft Herringbone Mokume Gane in both three-alloy and two-alloy variations:

• Three-Alloy: Copper / Brass / Nickel-Silver—rich, complex, and full of contrast.
• Two-Alloy: Copper / Brass or Copper / Nickel-Silver—each bringing its own unique warmth and depth.

Perfect for jewelry, knife fittings, or anything that deserves a touch of the extraordinary. Because some materials don’t just sit there—they move.

Herringbone Mokume Gane delivers bold movement and clean geometry in every billet.

Forged with 200 layers of copper, brass, and nickel-silver (or any two-alloy combination), this pattern flows with contrast and rhythm—perfect for jewelry, knife fittings, or standout details in fine work.

Forge it. Etch it. Let the layers speak.
