Proper job. I really like the bird of prey design starting with the head on the handle and ending with the stylish feather on the blade back. The clean lines are doing the trick better than any redundant details...
Love the style of your vids.. no talk, all action, no music. Your work speaks for itself and having done this sort of project myself with a lot less tools, I can say it's very meditative and Zen like, which comes through strongly in your vids
My favorite is woodworking.. it's one of my passions and my part time business. But making ancient weapons from scratch is amazingly satisfying. It gives you some understanding of what it required of men in the old days, and you get a feel of what weapons worked well and what didn't (if you try to stay authentic)
Stefano Dog- I have become spoiled on the no-talk format. I get kind of pissy and hard to please if they talk over their videos. I know it's shitty of me but my initial reaction is alway "oh.. this guy is going to use his words". Primitive technology, Hand Tool Rescue, Andre Will Do It, Restore It, Will Matthews. The vicarious satisfaction of someone else fixing or making something I could not is hypnotic and meditative after a long day... words just get in the way.
Actually, there is a great deal of music going on there... To most it sounds like a lot of banging and grinding and things of that nature... But it's music none the less 😁

Сложный меч. Восхищение вызывает даже не меч, а ролик (видео) о работе, много инструментов и операций с ними. Много деталей и ненадоедливо показаны тонкости., как такое обойти вниманием? Я не понимаю. Спасибо мастеру, и здоровья в комплекте.

Ya quisiera este tener la habilidad de los herreros iberos de hace 2500 años... La falcata era de acero homogeneo con nucleo _decarburizado desde el exterior,_ algo que no se recuperó hasta finales del siglo XX (lo normal era al revés, _carburizar_ desde fuera). Con la habilidad que tiene, podría haber imitado el proceso antiguo haciendo un nucleo de acero blando entre dos capas de duro, pero no, que va... este señor hace TODAS sus espaditas en forjado en patrón estilo vikingo, que es lo único que le mola a los guiris, sin importarle la historia de la espada que reproduce. A los guiris les puede gustar, pero a los que sabemos de falcatas nos sienta como si hiciera una katanita de acero blando aplanado y se la enseñara a un japonés, a ver si le gusta. O como si le hiciera una sietemuelles y le grabara en la hoja "que le den por culo al honor de mi dueño" :-D
@@notfeedynotlazy creo que te estas refiriendo a la oxidacion controlada?lo de enterrar la pieza forjada????he leido algo acerca de ese tema....tambien lei que se doblaban y se podian poner denuevo rectas pisandolas....lo cual no se que pensar al respecto de su legendaria dureza ...por no hablar de su retencion de filo....creo que la pieza de este artesano es impecable en su ejecucion sobretodo en cuanto a la hoja(no se si has visto el cajon de arena para los normalizados del nucleo ect...es una belleza del arte libre....me falto una cabeza equina si....pero es una belleza.
@@elsenordeloscuchillos no, lo de que "se doblaban al golper y había que ponerlas luego rectas con el pie" es algo que dice un historiador romano muy literario pero poco fiable sobre las espadas CELTAS (fundamentalmente galos y similares), que eran unas espadas rectas de entre 80 y 100 cm, y que el análisis de todos los ejemplares encontrados nos indica que esa historia era meramente propagandística, de "qué inferiores eran estos bárbaros, nos pegaron una paliza en el Alia pero conste que sus espadas eran malísimas, ¿eh?", al mejor estilo romano. Estás hablando de un arma distinta a la falcata, descrita por un enemigo despectivo, y tratando de sacar conclusiones sobre ello. En cuanto a la habilidad del artesano... saber documentarse sobre cómo es un tipo de espada y cual es la mejor técnica para su elaboración TAMBIÉN es parte de la habilidad. Y si hace _todas_ las espadas con la misma técnica, eso ya dice _todo_ lo necesario sobre esa parte de su habilidad.
@@notfeedynotlazy bueno....sigo opinando que se trata de una pieza muy bien ejecutada...no historica obviamente....respecto a las falcatas,los iberos.... la propaganda romana....creo que han sido elogiados en varios documentos...hasta con horror por su conocido juramento DEVOTIO....no obstante no se si serian las mismas armas las fabricadas para la nobleza ibera que para su infanteria....las armas producidas en tiempos de paz o las producidas en tiempos mas convulsos...las fabricadas al detalle o las que se fabricaban mas "en serie" que serian las que catarian los romanos....
@@elsenordeloscuchillos Repito, la historia de "la propaganda romana de lo malas que eran" NO era de las falcatas. Era de otro tipo de espada, hecha por otro pueblo. Basarse en esa historia para hablar de las falcatas es como (por poner un ejemplo humorístico, no por burlarme de nadie) basarse en la leyenda de que las katanas cortaban cañones de ametralladoras para hablar de espadas roperas) :-) Los romanos no solo no hablaron mal de las espadas iberas (gladios y falcatas), sino que adoptaron una de ellas para su propio uso (y por dato curioso, no adoptaron la falcata solo porque es un arma "igualita pero mejor" que el kopis griego, y ellos acababan precisamente de abandonar el modo de lucha griego tras el repaso que los galos les metieron en Alia con esas espadas "tan malas". Y aquí sí me estoy burlando un poco de ellos) ;-D
one of the best sword smiths in the world, i watched many videos of this modern sword smith master, and if i would be rich, i would let him smith me a complete collection of this great handicraft sword uniques.
@@ateffii It is said Hanibal equiped his infantry with falcatas due to the devastating blow he took when trying to hold posessions in Iberia, and fear-inciting appearance.
You are the juggernaut of forged in fire. I only wish I had that sword in my collection. Makes you wonder how they did it , or how long it took to make back 500 -1000 years ago. No machinery or pre-made dowels or pre cut wood.
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. The Damascus layering, the polishing, and tbe handle design are all beautiful. Personally would have wrapped the handle in leather. Great work.
I was too lazy to take the trash out two days in a row. He makes a 6 part robot building tutorial and an hour long video producing a handmade falcata within a month.
Actually there were 2 Falcatas… The Hispanic one and The Lusitanian one. The Hispanic one was longer, sometimes it could reach over 90 Cm of lenght. The Lusitanian one however, didn't exceed 60 cm… The "Roman Terror". The one we see here is a "Lusitanian Falcata".
Não. Era uma espada personalizada: tinha o tamanho do braço de seu dono, desde o cotovelo até as pontas dos dedos. Deixe de lado o patriotismo incompreendido. A Falcata é a espada dos ibéricos. O Gladius Hispaniensis é a espada dos celtiberos. Os outros povos ibéricos usavam espadas do tipo celta. Isso não significa que os povos da península não adotaram nenhum desses tipos de espadas. De fato, a cavalaria costumava usar a Falcata por causa de suas qualidades de "sabre". Como os lusitanos são uma tribo de cavaleiros, não é estranho que eles adotaram a Falca ou até mesmo abandonaram a tradição de ser uma espada personalizada e a adaptaram, dando-lhe um comprimento maior, ao seu estilo de luta a cavalo.
Jim... No. The falcata had more curvature than the Greek majaira. As there are no written sources and the language of the Iberians has not yet been deciphered, it is not possible to be categorical regarding the origin of that sword. It does not matter. The fundamental thing about the Falcata is that it was a sword that caused terror in the legions of Rome during the long conquest of Hispania. A sword that could cut a legionary in half ... no matter what armor he wore.
Permita-me discordar baseado em alguns pontos. Existe uma considerável "colecção" de achados deste tipo de armas, tanto na área anteriormente considerada Lusitânia e Galaécia, como na restante Ibéria. "Colecção" que permite uma análise objectiva das diferenças encontradas em ambas as áreas. A Falcata Lusitana era consideravelmente mais curta que a Hispânica. Tem razão quando afirma que a falcata de cavalaria seria mais longa...no entanto as intervenções Lusitanas eram maioritariamente a pé, aliás, era exactamente pelo tipo de ataque rápido, em formação muito compacta que as hostes lusitanas eram temidas. E exactamente por causa deste tipo de formação, até considerada uma das primeiras formas de guerrilha, em que se usavam ataques muito rápidos, compactos e geralmente por emboscada, que a Falcata Lusitana se evidenciava...por ser excepcional em combate corpo a corpo muito próximo e rápido. Em relação à "adopção" da falcata, o mais provável é que tenha tido influencia Grega, aliás, os exemplares mais antigos foram encontrados junto de vasos dos mesmos e no período inicial continham pomo em forma de pássaro ou mocho o que é consistente com a cultura grega. Apenas num período mais tardio se encontram pomos em forma de cabeça de cavalo e no período final com pomo em forma de Lobo remetendo para uma referência à guerra.
Taken from the book "Viriathus: and the Lusitanian Resistance to Rome 155-139 BC": "The Lusitanians, being a warlike tribe, constantly fought in agglomerated formations, so a short weapon brought enormous advantages in malleability and effectiveness. Thus the length of the sword was very important. The usual length of the Iberian falcata was 60 to 70cm (23 to 27 inches), but the length of the Lusitanian Falcata was much smaller - from 40 t0 50cm (15 to 20 inches)."

Wasn't sure what type of sword it was but it is badass. Reminds me if the Spartan sword little bit.
Andy Chinn the Falcata was a great spaniard sword before the Roman empíre. Later many roman’s soldiers wear one in their equipements.
