Testing! Can you elaborate on how you did it?

and the photo on the side of the thickness of the handle to see? And how was 13 layers made? where did you bake it?

I added photos from above, in
more detail how I did it, I turned the wedge with the help of a power tool, etching by electrolysis.
Carbon lay down layer by layer (one strip three layers) alternately with golden, impregnated with epoxy.
I baked it in the oven))) You don’t need to bake with my epoxy, like most homemade carbon fiber, anyway, such strength is not reached. To be honest, it takes a long time to paint, in general, I did about five days.
Detailed information can be found on the net and on the forums of knifemakers.
