Hello Marius,
laminated means pattern welded, but obviously without a specific pattern. I would call it "wild mechanical damascus".
Imho, just in my honest opinion, a salt like Iron(III)Sulfate or Sodium Persulfate may bring out more details from mechanical damascus than Nital. Nital also has a nasty tendency to penetrate deep into the surface.
