very nice, and well linked I was half way through the second replay before I realised I was watching the same heat over again. Well timed editing and I'm looking forward to seeing it finished

Fire forge FF BFK. “ big *%cking knife)

Love your videos! Always wanted to forge and watching your videos really makes me want it more.

You gotta change the title name lol. The notification pops up and looks like its going to say forging san mai nak...(naked?) Thatd be pretty risque haha

Thanks for your initial impression video’ Two months in, may I ask what you impression and usage of the stone is?

arent you scared of the tiny molten metal sparks to go into your eye? or is it impossible For it to happen?

Here's the first Metallurgy Monday video: ruclips.net/video/HzGFhFMZbgU/видео.htmlsi=OiscBokfyS8s_K6u

My guess is access, I’d be willing to bet most watch through the app on their phones and the join button doesn’t show up anywhere you’ve listed on the mobile app you have to open the channel in a browser, which if you open the browser on your phone it tries to reroute you to the app. Makes it difficult to sign up and took multiple attempts to even be able to get to where I could join.

There’s nothing in the playlist from what I can see. I’m not super tech savvy, so maybe the issue is access?

Nice

For a big blade made out of that blade steel S35VN, it did super good and keep up the good work. 😳👍

Amazing pattern!

Here it is! ruclips.net/video/HzGFhFMZbgU/видео.htmlsi=9aGhI3jKjpOf1IBp

Nice!

Making a knife in honour of a cold snap? Just so American. Just build a knife FFS!

Yes! I’ve been wondering about this for a long time. Thank you, can’t wait

Is 52100 a high carbon steel?

thats a really nice touch, I don't know how much longer it takes but I think its worth it.

Cryo used?

Genuine question- Why did you hang the hot blade and let it cool down naturally?? I have never seen anything like that in blacksmithing videos and am really curious

All links now lead to the 6" Stone.

That is a tight twist! The pattern on the blade doesn't look like twist, but it is clear from the pattern on the spine.

Gorgeous blade. Is it twisted or multi layered? Still learning the ropes

Love the pattern on that blade. The handle really compliments the damascus.

Looks beautiful

Amazing

Beautiful work. Handle pins, Damascus pattern look great.

Try Carbide masonry bits. I always use a good masonry bit to drill out taps and other glass hard steel. I stay away from solid carbide drills since they are really hard and brittle and a bear to remove if you beak one. Get a quality bit that has the tip ground sharp. Use a drill press and go slowly. Learned this when I broke off a tap in a friend's Honda motorcycle part. Drilled center out of tap and picked out the pieces. Try it on a worn out file before you attempt it on something you want to save. The trick is to use a decent masonry bit that is sharp. Masonry bits have a mild steel body with a small carbide tip brazed into it. They handle a fair amount of shock and flexing. Milwaukee, Bosch, or Dewalt bits in the sizes you need for knife handles can be had for around $5. Stay away from the no-name imports that aren't sharp and use inferior carbide.

Normalize 5 times , edge quench in water, and temper 5-7 times but no more then 9 lol just kiddin man. I dont know much about what would be right however if i heat treated it without any knowledge i would normalize 2 times and heat it to red not quite glowing orange and quench in oil. Not allowing it to self temper. And 2 400 degree temper cycles for 2 hours immediately after quenching

Blades don't EVER make as much noise as my Mach 1 does!

I was thinking earlier today, I wanna try damascus but I can only do it by hand. Would it make more sense to make smaller billets into hidden tang knives to both save time and conserve material? It seems to me if I have to make it by hand it would be a waste of time and materials to make it into a full tang knife. Just looking for some expert input since I’m not familiar with working/making damascus.

Totally walked passed the opportunity to use “pop quiz hotshot”

Got this stone today. I'd like to also have a strop, but I don't want to buy all the materials to make my own. Any recommendations?

I suppose that’s two different things but then again it’s not really

Love it. Been asking and curious about this for a few years. I would guess split the difference or move the temp and soak time towards the dominating content. (With math) Due to migration of different elements/alloys . But then again the higher the nickel content prevents carbon migration.. How I know? Stainless San Mai with a high layer Damascus core.. the nickel prevented the carbon migration, resulting with a mirror against Damascus steel. Not what I was going for at all.

Nice looking knives 👍

Nice alternative to cat litter

I’m so glad you actually forged the tip, not cut the tip in like all these other RUclips crap blademakers. They don’t know the “why” you should forge not cut on the tips and the entire blade and tang. They don’t realize they are putting stress risers in the grain. Bunch of ignorant copycats or wannabe’s is all they are. A forged tip and tang will ALWAYS be stronger than any cut in.

your narrative for your video really makes this exceptional! 👊👊👍👍

Quel es le meilleurs modèle de marteaux ??

Looks like perilite.

Bahkan saya ingin membuatnya untuk mencukur domba

Machine.

What kind of dremel bit did you use on the guard?

Great job selling the whole batch of carving hatchets! You're an inspiration to me.
