I would like to see you make a knife in the old-school style with just hammers and an anvil may be an open forge with no power tools. To see if you can still get the same great quality. like the bowie knife, you made for the knife smith journeyman's test.
I wasn't initially going to watch this one, but I'm glad I did. Watching you two manhandle than massive piece of steel under the big hammer gave me such 19th century industrial vibes and I loved it. That initial shaping felt like a more manual version of those videos of massive connecting rods and machine parts being forged.
hi Nick... and Will. Love to see you two playing together. Will, we haven't met, but Nick is my friend. Good guy to learn from and just hang out with. Great stuff. Keep the community open and welcoming, and also playful!
Man, this makes me so happy. I’ve known and followed Nick for a decade and it’s great to see y’all collaborating. And glad Nick’s rockin the Horton shirt too!
Remember when you were a kid and your friends came up with that great idea in the Evil Knievel era that involved your bikes, a culvert and an old piece of plywood? What could possibly go wrong??? Keep it coming Will!
what a great video, love the dialogs looking how to solve problems, loved some slow motion shots showcasing how the big hammer works, and how you both work together, also like how much mass the small hammer can move.
It seems like you could use the same type of lifting rig Alec made for himself when he made a giant blade for the guys on How Ridiculous. I mean, you had a second pair of hands this time, but might not for future projects. Also, either Nick is huge or you are tiny...guy's like twice your size! Anyway, loved see you two work, looks like you had fun. Thanks for posting!
Nick is one of the best out there, all the things I forge are much better now that I'm using a set of Titanim Tongs that I bought from him. Really great dude!
Outstanding guys, good to see Nick too and congrats to BOTH of you, a JS and an MS very very cool, Nick maybe see you this year at Ashokan? And Will you might want to take a trip to Ashokan this fall as well, very nice weekend!
That was quite the project! Great job! 👍👍 I love that it was all one video, by the way! The long projects are cool and all but when they spread over a dozen episodes it drags on a bit. 😉 Keep up the good work! ❤
Will is a big boy. If he was struggling with that chonk of steel, I would have too for SURE. Hey Will, not sure if you read these or not but, would you consider having your father on? He has to be a good man.
Great vid, now what are you going to do with it ? I'd weld 2 eyes on it, get it sandblasted and hot zinc sprayed so it wont rust and hang it on a wall mounted wrought iron bracket on chains, make a great shop sign.
I suggest you use it to make a ridiculously proportioned sign for your shop. Scale up the logo you use to engrave in your kitchen products and carve it into a board, then hang it under the giant blacksmith knife over the door of the shop.
So, Will isn't an Aussie? Because at 15:48 - that looked like a "Now this is a knife" moment. Also this knife sculpture looks like some insane gimmicky sword from a game or an anime and I love it!

Technically Will was holding it with one hand during the end credits....... while balancing the rest of the knife on his shoulder........ that counts........ I think...... 😁

Ramble away Will. It’s been really great seeing you, your shop and your skills evolve. Keep up the good stuff dude.
Thanks Will! I had a great time, but I never should of dipped my toes into that kind of power. Now I need a 400lb hammer. 😬
Bigger!!!!!
Imagine being a master in your craft and going around teaching younglings passing your knowledge and the happiness that brings
@@zex69 I gotta tell you it’s pretty good.
I had the pleasure of learning from Rossi when I was just beginning! A truly amazing craftsman and teacher.

Great video. So much more enjoyable when I can hear the sounds of the hammers without background music
drowning them out.
Your enthusiasm is as infectious as ever 😄 - great work Will
@NickRossi only guy I know to forge so clean forging. A great teacher 👊🏻
That was one of the coolest things I've watched in a long time. Nick's not only one heck of a bladesmith, he's about as cool as they get.

Great to see how much fun and how happy you both were making this project.
Would love to see that knife sculpture turned into a sign for the shop.
Brother you are awesome to be helping out with your neighbors! This was a fun one to watch as well. Hope you got your belt fixed.
what a great video, love the dialogs looking how to solve problems, loved some slow motion shots showcasing how the big hammer works, and how you both work together, also like how much mass the small hammer can move.
It's a good day when both Alec and Will upload on the same day.
Had a couple classes with Nick and they were awesome, cool to see him outside New England School of Metal Work.
Loved watching..
It Is never wrong to profess your faith.. Thank you for sharing.. Have a great day.. Be Blessed...
Nick Rossi- the Jack Black of Smithing
Good on ya, Will - keep up the good work
You know you are doing what you love when you have this much fun on such a creative idea... lol. Epic!
Crazy project, great fun! Thanks for sharing with us. Nick is a fun guy and a really great teacher.
Great video Will. I appreciate how well you know and maintain your machines.
Great to see the interactions and enjoyed the videography. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice to see some good old fashioned forging. Thanks Will.👍😎👍
You seem like a good dude. You keep being you. Doesn't matter what TH-cam thinks. Always enjoy your videos.
It's got nothing to do with TH-cam 🤣😂🤣
Fun video William. hey what about drilling a hole through the handle somewhere and making a paper cutter out of it? or am I just being silly?
Outstanding guys, good to see Nick too and congrats to BOTH of you, a JS and an MS very very cool, Nick maybe see you this year at Ashokan? And Will you might want to take a trip to Ashokan this fall as well, very nice weekend!
That Beaudry powerhammer was like "EXPELLO GOPROMOUNTUM!" 😂😁😜
A SNAP mount would probably work pretty well for that GoPro Ram POV shot.
A friend made me this style of knife 18 years ago. Still wear it daily. I love it.
You must have really strong legs by now.
This would look awesome as part of a business bladesmith, blacksmith over door hanging sign. Like the old english business sign hangers
That was quite the project! Great job! 👍👍
I love that it was all one video, by the way! The long projects are cool and all but when they spread over a dozen episodes it drags on a bit. 😉
Keep up the good work! ❤
What a perfect Jarhead thing to build, I'm jealous
Will is a big boy. If he was struggling with that chonk of steel, I would have too for SURE. Hey Will, not sure if you read these or not but, would you consider having your father on? He has to be a good man.
Simple but complicated , Id hang that on my wall. Very cool guys.
That will make a good sign for a knife shop
That was great Will! And Nick! Super fun and entertaining. You’re like nothing else on TH-cam. Wishing you every success. God bless
Looks like a nice little EDC, but you might need bigger pockets. Super fun project! Thanks for sharing!
That little giant is fricking awesome
For being up against a big “sculpture “, that Little Giant sure was moving some metal!
Great vid, now what are you going to do with it ? I'd weld 2 eyes on it, get it sandblasted and hot zinc sprayed so it wont rust and hang it on a wall mounted wrought iron bracket on chains, make a great shop sign.
What a hell of a blacksmiths knife. "Humongoish" can I pen? You two working together to bring this about - maddness but kool! Great job. I want ONE!!
I’ve always wondered with projects like this how much steel is lost to scale?
I'm also curious as to if the weight of the scale lost here is similar to the weight of a normal chef knife
Hard to say- probably 7-8 oz’s!
Did you just pull the blacksmith's version of a dundee?
I dig it.
That’s a sword. You made a knife that’s actually a sword and I love it.
Classic Will breaking another power hammer
Great video, and cool project! You guys have figured out how to keep the camera from shaking while the Beaudry is slamming away.
From one God loving dude to Another, You ROCK !!!
And that is One Big Steak knife. HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!!!
I suggest you use it to make a ridiculously proportioned sign for your shop. Scale up the logo you use to engrave in your kitchen products and carve it into a board, then hang it under the giant blacksmith knife over the door of the shop.

Awsome project AND edit.
Thank you for sharing your expertise
Great project Will!
Shaq’s new butter knife.
How about forging a side-axe. A side-axe is an axe or hatchet with one side flat, so you can trim hand made shingles, etc.
This was awesome buddy. It looked like so much fun and you guys looked like you really enjoyed making it. It's so darn cool. So cool, God bless bro
Well, now we know what Will's Bankai would look like. Also, smooth Nord promo.
That looks so cool, that you managed it in just a day is amazing.
That was a smooth Segway to the add
Geeze i dont think Will is a "shrimp" but Nick looks like a squach lol. Massive dude
THAT BLADE IS WICKED FRICKEN CRAZY 😎 BAD ASS
What an awesome video, and an awesome project! Great work guys.
I need to see you butter some bread with it! Lol!
You should make a normal scale knife identical to that monster and then take force perspective pictures of the two of them.
Love watching your videos mate you are very inspiring keep up the legendary work
that would make a awesome mail box post
That thing is just stupid. I love it!
Nick used to teach at the New England School of Metalwork where I went, good dude!
I'm glad someone is finally making knives in my size. 😁
mail box stand right there
nice build
If you ever have Shaquille O'Neal over for supper he'll feel right at home. 🤣🤣🤣
Very cool project Will.
That really looks like a zanpakuto lol. Hope your family is ok, keep it up!
What a fun project!
New videographer?
I was looking forward to the handle twist 😂
Now, turn that HUGE knife into a sign (or part of a sign)!
Laughing with you guys. Both of you are Mad Lads.
Where is the Melon/ Pineapple cutting test with this bad boy? I can't be the only one that want to see this? 😉
Awesome work Will. 👍
PUHLEEEEEESE make a "Wholesome Dirty Fun" T-Shirt!!!!!!!!!!
That's awesome, you should make a matching fork!
By definition, isn't a knife one-handed? Too bad Andre the Giant isn't around to try this one out.
Technically Will was holding it with one hand during the end credits....... while balancing the rest of the knife on his shoulder........ that counts........ I think...... 😁

Real Zangetsu vibes from this one.
I want to see you build the sheath for it.
Ridiculously AWESOME!!!!!
Nick with a Horton t-shirt, nice, jejeje
The best Kyber knife I’ve ever seen
That’s an anime sword right there. Well done!
It would be cool to forge smaller usable versions of that same knife 3-5 inch blade maybe.
I was kind of waiting for you to chop some wood with it!
Hot, dirty, wholesome fun with a little spriz of lubricant here and there.
Great project guys.
