    If you re the winner and you don't reach out to me in seven days, I will pick another winner.
    Subscribe to my channel and leave a comment including the word "Jump" to enter the giveaway.
    Please check back May 7th to see if you are the winner, you have no idea how many people have won before but have not bothered to check.
    Important! Be wary of scammers, I have caught a few of them impersonating me, trying to trick people inte to contacting them. Always check back to this comment to see if the winner has been announced. Another thing to look carefully at is the name tag of the person writing. mine is "@nilsogren" , they usually have weird tags promting people to reach out via telegram or so. DONT engage with them.
    Also, I am aware that the name for the actual welding technique might be wrong. I did consult with a few different smiths and that's what we came up with.
    Thank you for watching!

      I would love to receive the beautiful JUMP welded axe. I recently made some Japanese knives at our local forge. When you pay for a course you really want to take something home. It’s great that you can afford to make mistakes and learn. ❤️🇦🇺

      I really like how the majority of your axes are made fully by hand and without too many power tools/hammers.... It's really inspiring. I might just jump back into my tiny garage with the smallest gas forge and mini anvil and have a go at making something with my very own hands and simple tools. Thank you dearly Nils!

    You did a great job of explaining the problems you faced making this sort of weld. My grandfather called such welds "flush welds" and, sometimes, "face welds". My grandfather would use a heavy file to create a "sawtooth" pattern at the interface where the mild steel met the harder steel (not pattern-welded in his case, usually some manner of hardened tool steel) to increase the surface area of the welding point. That and copious amounts of flux. His motto was "never enough flux".
