Well, I *have* actually seen sharp, clip-pointed Bowie knives before (I guess "clip-pointed Bowie knife" is redundant, but whatever). This one is still cool though, and as I haven't quite gone down the rabbit hole of making my own knives--yet--I respect anyone who can do so.
I started 3 yars ago you will need tools but most important of all patience and research i used to make bad blades to making full combat ready steel blades now 1095 the tip is to sharpen it by hand and not a power tool but a brinder disk sure helps to shape the sharpening angle on the blade
One thing I didn’t like is he cut the shape of the knife and I don’t recall seeing this toothpick being hardened I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt that it was done off screen but honestly I expect that knife to break cuz of how the tang was cut 😊
I’m impressed with the design and the handle construction, but not the bladesmithing. He didn’t forge the blade to shape, making the overall grain structure less densely packed. Simply cutting the shape out of a piece of flat stock isn’t bladesmithing, it’s ironworking.
if he started with brand new annealed steel, then no. you'd be wrong. forging the steel end result would be less pure, you cant avoid pushing some % of scale back into the metal, as you decarb your blade. you increase the risk creating stress fractures. what changes the the grain is the quench and temper, has nothing to do with forging. people aren't folding steel, there using the same mono steel as everyone else. what you should be saying is that it he didn't seem to put it through a normalisation process, but we can't know he didn't, or that the steel isn't already annealed. that has nothing to do with forging vs stock removal. think of it this way. forging is alot faster. why would people stock remove if forging is the quicker method. Its cos its the better more consistent method
Hello, amateur blacksmith here. While learning about blacksmithing I learned you can burn metal and it can affect the grain structure of the knife in a negative way. Are those blue parts of the knife during grinding considered burns or are those harmless discolorations?
If you are going to use power tools better cool the metal cause what you said its true but you can cure it depending on what type of steel you use there is the hardening tempeture and there is the recovery one i may type it wrong though but its better if you use powertools to cool the steel cause yes whatbyou said its true and it may lead to a bad quality blade
@@petea2721 but we no longer live in medieval times my man thats why we have power tools bow even back then they would do the same if they had the chance 😂😂😂😂😂 grow out of that shell there its 2024
Ja habe ich wirklich noch nicht gesehen das ein frisch geschliffenes Messer Gemüse nur zerfetzt und nicht schneidet und die Melone hätte auch in zwei Teile zerfallen müssen bei der Größe und Gewicht
You had me until the weak tang came into sight. To see a real beast checkout my Alpha Tracker 1lb Survival Tanto profile true full tang Survival Knife with 9260 spring steel that has 20% flexing back to true abilities. Has deep Carrillo grinds 1/4" convex secondary cutting edges.
This dude is an iron worker, not a bladesmith, real bladesmiths dont use angle grinders to form their blades, his grain structure is off and this knife is and will be much weaker than a blade actually forged and shaped with a hammer rather than cut to shape with an angle grinder
I like his handles. Most people make tiny handels. Must be for baby hands 🤙🤙❤️
A knife that can cut fruit?! No, you're so right. Never seen it in my life.
Oh wow, is that a large... knife? Where have these been all my life!

That's an excellent blade. Cuts nicely. Way to go
Big ups blade man!

Хвостовик слабый
Yeah this was more of a show piece than an actual practical knife.
Oye no es por criticar tú gran trabajo pero y el tratamiento térmico?
Don't be such knife snobs, it's sharp, seems nicely hefty. I would feel well armed with it on hand also I like the handle too.
Looks like the Men With the Pot knife

I agree and was gunna say the same thing

Semejante hoja y una espiga pequeña 😮
You're right. I've never seen a big ass knife before
Aí sim eu boto fé nisso ❤
Я тоже проверяю ножи на фруктах и сливочном масле
Wow! Iz that a knife ?
I’d prefer a full tang and a hammer forged profile, but still good!
Ganda..
With a belly that big I think this knife would have benefited by a full tang construction, it would also have made it more durable
Cool dude!!
It looks like the Fang knife from day z bruh, very close.
How’s the handle secured?
Very 👍 good but green onion & watermelon don't hit back.
What grinding disc did you use to sharpen it?
Real blacksmiths don't use an angle grinder to shape their knifes
Gatekeeping hard there eh..
@@Kev1nL telling it how it is. There is a massive difference between manufacturing a knife and being a blacksmith
@@Kev1nLhe aint lying, dude in this video is an ironworker, not a blade smith

Personally, from one blacksmith to one who probably isnt: fuck you. I'm gonna continue making more knives than you WITH an angle grinder

Vous vendez vos créations ?
I’ve never seen anything like a small scimitar?
Делал такую форму из подшипниковой стали.
Did you do the heat treatment?
No he didn't
Кто нибудь , дайте мужику болванок из приличной стали . А то он так все инструменты и детали на ножи переведёт .
Almost went viral. Try again 😊
хвостовик детский!
Ooho
Ja habe ich wirklich noch nicht gesehen das ein frisch geschliffenes Messer Gemüse nur zerfetzt und nicht schneidet und die Melone hätte auch in zwei Teile zerfallen müssen bei der Größe und Gewicht
That's just a knife seen lots of them
Is there somewhere you can purchase these blades or do you make for fun?
Eat your heart out Spyderco. Nice
Not even close
Not sure why the hole? 🤔🤔🤔
Whats the function of the hole
Reduce a but of weight and looks just those
❤
Y el tratamiento térmico???.
คมตรงไหนครับ
Sandia y yuyos naaaa carne cruda cocinada caliente quiero ver tu filosofía cuanto dura
Request: a blade made of brass thumbtacks, with a mahogany handle, fashioned in slight scimitar fashion, but still straight even for a chef's knife.

Yessir! ☝️🗡️🔪
What you make is not well compressed
👍🇹🇯
y’all acting like it needs to be sharp. he is just doing it for art and fun. not like he’s gonna go use it to stab someone 😅
That Tang is a weak spot
Хорошо, когда есть мощные электроинструменты....
Все время какую то дичь лепит.
Full Tang?
Всадной монтаж.

That's watermelon abuse.
Tang too short, instant L for using a surface grinder
MF DOOM sword
Smol chinese warsword.
forge the blade
dont cut it into shape
Does not cut very well
😂😂
No tiene buen filo
Рукоять слабая
A Guy with Al The tools but no eye For knifes and cant do shit
Not sharp😂😂😂😂
Qdmdk
What's the point of the hole being drilled in the blade? Doesn't that disturb the integrity of the blade m
