are you sure it is damascus?

I've got some 1095/15n20 damascus steel I'm working on and while it grinds
ok, I'm having trouble drilling it. I used a cobalt drill and a carbide
center cutting end mill and neither one seems to be doing a good job.
Even after I took the end I need to drill up to a dull red heat.

Any suggestions?
