I saw one some years ago really liked it, anybody making one.

There are stainless Damascus knives out there. The difficulty that goes into making Damascus out of stainless alloys, though poses some significant challenges. I think most guys making a knife out of stainless Damascus are buying bar stock and then grinding from there. It's pretty expensive as far as materials go. I won a bar of some good stuff at a show, but it's sitting safely on a shelf until I'm more confident that I won't totally screw it up...

There are some beautiful patterns to be had out there. Not sure if anyone here is using it, though. Good luck in the search.
