That knife is looking awesome! I can't wait to watch part 2! :)
Would like to see you use the same pattern damascus to make a k bar.
Nice work gents! Looks absolutely amazing!
@@lancemiller6278 I second that.
I hope Kyle kept enough of this billet to make his own knife out of it. This knife will be fine, but Kyle's knifes are a work of art and PRICELESS!!!!
Both Craftsmen did stellar work. I sub’d to Nate’s channel. I’m excited to learn from Nate as well. Thank you.
Loving the knife so far. I love the look of Damascus Steel. One suggest, though. Get you a work shop apron. There's many reason why you should have one. However, a fire resistant apron will keep your clothes from getting singe marks or even from catching on fire.
Nate: I better put on safety glasses in case the oil splashes.
Also Nate: Wears shorts and a t-shirt
SAFETY shorts and t-shirt
Reminds me of Ryu from Forged in Fire who wore sunglasses as eye protection and a cigar as a respirator.
I mean oil washes out, though it's not like welding in sandals and shorts
@@NFTI - Similar, I take it, to Colin Furze's 'Safety Tie'?
I love that you showed off the decisions and difficulties getting the right contrast - often this isn't mentioned at all - so good! 👌💚
It's my first time trying to bring out this kind of pattern! Kyle provided instructions but even with that there's some trial and error.
@@NFTI absolutely! But I’m a little bit surprised we didn’t get a few close up shots of the finished blade at the end of the video!
You got a billet from (in my opinion) the best master smith alive. Good video.
I agree, Kyle is amazing!
Hurry up with pt.2. So excited to see finale!!!!!!! Love to see your knife process getting stronger and more knowledgeable. Pt 3- hot metal, anvils and hammers.
This is one of the most beautiful damascus blades I have ever seen! Awesome job to the both of you!
The blade is really beautiful. Thank you Nate for showing all the technics.
That is such a beautiful start to that knife. Looking forward to pt 2.
Oh hey Nate! That piece of steel is gorgeous and I'll bet the knife is gonna end up looking just as great
Wow, great work Nate! Very nice knife ! I've always wondered how a coffee etch works, thanks for taking the time to explain that. Looking forward to part 2
Very lovely blade, can't wait for part 2. Love the videos as always.
Great video and job Nate!
I can't wait to see it finished!
Wow, that is one gorgeous looking blade. That Damascus pattern is beautiful. That is going to a sick looking knife. Loved watching him make the blank.
Holy Crap Kyle's Swords and Knives are Always Awesome To Watch Get Made! Can't wait to see you finish this one off! :)
Awesome video, that's a really cool blade. 😎👍
I can't wait to see part 2.
Nice job Nate, can't wait for part 2.
Nice, can’t wait for part 2
I realy appreciate your all in effort and all the detail i am also learning. I enjoyed many of the TKOR vids aswell. Keep up the good work
Very well explained and a beautiful knife. Looking forward for part two.
cant believe you have a royer piece. if i had that damascus, i wouldve frame it on the wall just as an abstract art. he is a phenomenon!
i know right.. i keep saying if i can ever afford a royer chefs knife it will never touch food, and be framed.. which will be a little sad because knives that beautiful should be used to create beautiful food
Looks great and can't wait for part 2
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
This was awesome I've been hooked on watching "Forged in Fire" on Netflix so I can really appreciate this in depth way of making this knife. 😀
Such a gorgeous blade!
I'm looking forward to see what handle you material you pair with it in part 2.
Hey Nate,
great work!
I'm looking forward to part 2.
Subscribed to your channel, I like your channel content.
Best regards
Holger
The lil Futurama nod @7.11 caught me off guard hahaha
I randomly remembered TKOR and checked and you were no longer there
Then I searched your name and found this channel, subbed immediately!
Love your content Nate!
I’m a bit blown away that we didn’t get a few close up shots of the finished blade at the end of the video!
Honestly I love the knife having a darker look, that pattern is awesome
Wow! Nice grind work, this Nate approves. 10/10 Nate's.
Looking good! I enjoy these kinds of build videos.
That pattern that Kyle made looks great, and your shaping is really nice. (Also looks like you need to make a sander like Sharup uses.)
I like that you show how you screw things up, and how you work to fix it. It makes you seem more human, and the things you do seem more accessible to amateurs like me.
"We're gonna be putting it in another chemical which is instant coffee" I agree
At first I was doubtful the pattern would work with the way you decided to go with the blade. But, no. That is quite special. I love the way the 'flames' rise up from the blade edge.
When I was in college (20+ years ago at a certain Technical Institution) I remember designing and etching PCB for projects with FC…. Nasty stuff!
DUDE THAT IS THE COOLEST KNIFE EVER!!!
Looking awesome!
What a wonderful collab!
Not going to lie - that's a beautiful looking knife blade. Looking forwards to part 2. Nice one. 👍👍👍
great you're becoming a knife maker!!! I always wish to have the tools and the place to do what you guys do......
The blade is so beautiful, I love it
That pattern is just wicked!! I love making knives from damascus! I am currently maling 2 nordic axes for a customer. It'll be 100 layer damascus, with a 1095 bit.
That sounds awesome, wanna hear how it turned out.
love it cants wait till part 2 comes out
Nate, I really like the design and the way it’s turning out. I just sub’d today. I noticed you have a vid on an Obsidian knife, I have several large pieces. It will be cool to watch & learn.
First off, Nate, I love the video! Second. . kind of makes me wonder what would a fingerprint would look like on an etched piece of non acid resistant metal .. very cool I would imagine.
That pattern is absolutely gorgeous
You did a fantastic job well done!
I'm not really into this stuff but I just wanted to say I'm glad your yt career is taking off I love your content
You did an absolute outstanding job on the knife Nate! I'm looking forward to part 2 and seeing it all finished out. Kyle is a great guy and one of my favorite knife makers and it's really cool seeing you two collaborate on this awesome project!
Was directed here from the master smith, also used to watch you on TKOR. I didnt know you had your own channel and now you have one more subscriber. :)
Strikingly beautiful knife so far Nate, I hope you have a great handle in mind to really do justice to Kyle's demascas pattern 👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘Cheers from Melbourne Australia
ooooh, me likes haha. lookin' sweet Nate, can't wait ta see it finished 😮👏
Cool work brother. Its unreal!👍👍
i love your 2000's style rock music in the background of yer vids man,
yeah its great , i heard a lot useful information , cheers.
I hope you get to make your own damascus one day. It's one hell of an experience.
Great watch. Artistry happening here!
Absolutely beautiful work guys. From Dave R. from Alaska.
Oh Wow!! Beautiful!
That's a beautiful knife. Amazing metal. And of course, it will keel.
Informative great video, good stuff.
i love the video the music and the postivity
haha love the roberto quote snuck in there
7 words:
bring back over-sized candy with cali
That pattern is so close to wootz it's crazy, would had loved to seen something more survivally(?) made out of it, or a sword if you had more. 🤩
Kyle Royer, AKA. the man that made that billet, has a full twenty something part video series about making a pattern welded sword. I think there is also a shorter, abridged version of the whole ordeal, but I can't recommend the entire thing enough.
Nice vid Nate
Lol. Roberto impression is on point.
I feel like Nate would be good at the "Forged in Fire" competition
Loved the Futurama reference 😂
Love the Futuama Roberto reference! Lol!
Nate: better put some safety glasses on just incase something explodes
Nate then turns the shop into a blind smoke rescue exercise.
hey nate why is this the first time I've seen your own YT channel major fan of TKOR and you
For hand sanding, if you put masking tape on the bottom side of the blade and then lay the knife in a pile of hot glue on top of a piece of timber, it self-contours to the blade and holds it while you sand. Repeat for the other side
Oooh man I love you for the Roberto reference
your voice lends well to an added echo effect.
Lovely looking knife, I am a chef and my only complaint is that these days in commercial Kitchens they really prefer having a full metal handle, this would have been perfect for that. Another interesting point is that High Carbon steel is fantastic for making durable knives that will need limited sharpening but the end up reacting to the acids in food too easily and are again rejected from commercial kitchens due to this. As a presentation knife that is able to be used it's going to be great but limited for Commercial use.
It's fantastic for protein disassembly as it is somewhat more chip resistant compared to high carbide stainless steels and the fat and low acid environment in that application is great for preventing the need for patination to avoid staining the food. Still a good idea to avoid onions and fruits unless you want to patinate it first, which seems a shame for a knife with such pretty patterning. The coffee bath will serve as a measure of corrosion prevention, which precludes the need for patination to a certain degree, but it isn't immunity like just going for stainless. I've used some high carbon steel knives before and they do cut differently than their stainless counterparts, so there is a reason why some purists will just deal with having a funny colored knife with the patination from cutting up some sacrificial onions in order to be able to use their preferred knife steels. I find that high carbon steel knives just keep their edge for longer while only needing a hone compared to stainless. Something about how the martensite and cementite formations are formed in the steel is different than how the carbides form in stainless allows the fine burr at the edge to plastically deform without being removed during use. Even when you strop away that burr, the edge is still more resilient and can be realigned more readily.
Glad you decided to eliminate the full length bolster. They both impede sharpening and mess with the balance of the blade. I also think it looks better without it. Good choice all around and a nice way to save yourself the trouble of constantly trying to chase your lines.
No pressure...lol...if you do a give-away on that chefs knive...as a chef ill sign up!!
That is a beautiful blade.
an interesting person to collab with one day might be Ray the sharpener, really funny guy and makes knifes really sharp.
Knife looks awesome. Is there a reason you made the tang so thin?
17:15 if it can float a horse shoe, it's good coffee
First time watching this channel. Seems like he’s trying to reinvent the wheel.
Please correct me if im mistaken: i saw in a video about hardness testing of steel that it is important to get the scale off first, otherwise you are testing the scale harness not the hardness of the steel underneath. But i personaly have very limited expierience with hardening myself (just did it twice a while ago).
Edit: Thats a realy cool knife, pattern looks amazing.
Today I learned that Nate is a Futurama fan, let's go
I don't know anything about how the metal was forged, but the pattern is in some way similar to the patterns made in candy making and polymer clay caning. I wonder what other patterns are possible.
literally hundreds
Dude next time you make a knife, you should totally do a Collab with Alec or Will Stelter. Also if you can get ahold of some, totally try working with copper Damascus. It almost always turns out gorgeous.
Nice work 👍. Regards from Down Under.
Good looking knife
Kyle's pattern weld is stunning. Lovely blade profile, though at the very end... how thin is that tang!! Yikes, I can only wonder what the handle plan is now.
Long Live King Nate 👑
Sweet knife bro
Nate please respond.
Can i buy a block of Damascus steel like you have at the beginning of this video so i can sculpt my own design and of course I can heat treated and make it the way it's supposed to be and put in acid dip I don't have to do all that I just don't have the forwards and the presses to make Damascus. MY VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION IS CAN I BUY A BLOCK OF STEEL ALREADY MADE INTO DAMASCUS SO I CAN SHAPE IT ON MY OWN AND HOW MUCH IS IT AND HOW CAN I BUY IT WHERE AT A LINK OR AN ADDRESS OR WHAT DO I DO
This bar was made by Kyle Royer. I don't know if he sells them or not but I doubt it. If you google "knife making damascus bar stock" you can find a few places that sell it.
@@NFTI thanks man good luck on your channel
I've just started forging! Any tips?
☕WoW... I've used Coffee as a Wood stain, but never knew it could be used in hilighting Damascus Steel.... Very interesting build :}
Seeing you using as much metal of the available piece, I am curious if you maybe could make a machete?
I listen to a bunch of youtube videos while im working, just to have some background noise, but at 2:56 i heard the music and immediately thought that youtube skipped to a BDoubleO100 video XD
Ok Nate, now we need to talk Kyle into making a nother legendary sword sooner than later 😭 the sword he sold ... Man it's hard for an real artist now in days ..
That is a really pretty knife
