Questions about the forging of a pugio and a balteus

You need to do a search on RAT for Matt Lukes' experiments with using shaped punches for inlaid pugio plates. It's a very convincing argument for punched decoration which could then have the sides undercut, and be filled with brass, silver, or even niello or enamel.
