- Well, This Sword took me almost two month to make and this was not easy to make it such perfect. A lot of people asked me to make Sword so i tried to make most perfect Sword that i can.
Blade Length: 35 Inches
Handle Length: 12 Inches
Overall Length: 47 Inches
All the Processes are below of making this beautiful Sword:
Forging:
It took me almost two days to prepare and hand forge Rebar piece into a long iron Strip and this was my most Hard forging ever. I don't have any power hammers so all the forging i did with my hands as well as other metal processes and turned a rebar piece into an 50 inch long metal strip.
Grinding:
I make most of grindings of steel strip with my Angle grinder and turned the strip into a well ballanced workpiece. I also
did a lot of hand sanding with a help of abrasive to remove the edges and almost all the roughness of the blank.
v. I made diamod blade type by hand sanding.
v. Hand Sanded the Blade to remove roughness.
v. The Hollow Ground was done manually which makes all the counstruction more lighter and stronger.
Hardness:
There is a proven and professional way to harden a Sword and that is
Heating the whole surface placed into a Fire evenly to a critical temperature. After that Quench the heated detail in oil. Now the steel is hard but fragile. Tempering is the best way to increase Toughness of the sword.
Handle:
The Handle contains of three parts.
v. POMMEL: Purpose of pommel is to ballance all the counstruction and to force more energy during a hit.
v. Cross Guard: A nice brass piece which protects hands, it is also needs to be sealed by Spacer.
v. Wood: Any piece of light wood would be nice for the handle which could be wrapped with some soft leather strips.

Almost Perfect Restoration
This is the most Hard forging i have ever done,
I'm 23 and this makes me feel like such a sad excuse of a man, only thing I can forge is my mom's signature on permission slips.
We need more people like this guy. People like him make life a living RPG and that's what I want out of my time.
the fact you made a beautiful blade with hand tools and no fancy workshop makes this sword even more special. Beautiful workmanship, elegantly simple and a timeless design.
I think trades should make a comeback. This is so cool. Blacksmithing, welding, and carpentry are really cool trades.
I Applaud you Sir! The WORLD IS Missing MORE Folks like YOURSELF and EVERYONE WHO WORKS AN ACTUAL "TRADE" (BUILDING SOMETHING FROM NOTHING WITH YOUR HANDS) That BENEFITS SOCIETY!!! THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU AND YOURS!!!
Absolutely stunning for the amount stuff you had access to. However, there's something I think you missed and it's a small part, easy to fix. It looked like you made the handle circular. Usually, bladed weapons in general have oval handles so that one can feel the edge alignment in the hand.
Bro made his own backyard DIY furnace. Hats off ❤
Thanks for obscuring the comparison at the end of the video with a bunch of end cards, that really helped me see what happened to the chainmail and the sword.
Unbelievable! This is the definition of making do with what you have! I had my doubts when you started to forge but I stand corrected. What you accomplished with the tools you used is unreal. Well done 👏
do you just have a million things in your backyard
TH-cam has become so boring nowdays , i just love watching these type of videos ❤️🔥
honestly this is one of the few clickbait restoration channels where i really admire the work. this is good. it sings, the proportions are pretty good, its sharp and looks beautiful. great job. genuinely nothing wrong with this.
love how strongly this feels of indie forgework. no power hammer, no fancy tongs, just a guy with a hole in the ground, an iron brick, and a hammer.
very pretty. but issues are as follows 1. rebar is not harden able steel 2. clay coating is not to prevent carbon loss its to provide a differential heat treat to the edge and core of the blade giving strength to the edge and flexibility to the core. 3. tempering is not to harden the blade it is to pull hardness out of the blade in a controlled manner to give flexibility and prevent snapping. 4. while convenient a burn through on the handle material leaves gapping (caused by the burnt material) and embrittles the wood leading to possible cracking. 5. not a negative cudos on the guard and pummel they are gorgeous. all in all you made a beautiful piece and i hope you don't take anything i have said as anything other than constructive criticism. i love seeing people make blades keep at it.😊
I'm impressed. I was under the impression that rebar was always a milder steel. I have a friend who is forging a blade out of rebar. Since we were using my forge, I gave him the two-handed sledge hammer and I got to hold the steel. It still took us 2 days.
I really appreciate how you showed how to forge the pommel and cross guard your video has shed light on so many questions about forging those 2 items What really appreciate is that you showed how long some of those steps took to negotiate those task .Very beautiful craftsmanship the mirror finish you put on that blade and how you did it by hand sanding is admirable Thank you for sharing your video it really helps me out a lot.
Wonderful contrast in the hard work and labor, the power of hands and tools, against the beauty and grace of flowers.
Undoubtedly some of the nicest mirror shining I’ve ever seen
One of the most beautiful swords I have ever seen in my life...
