In this video, I'm working on making a special dagger with a stone handle called "Serenity." The Serenity Dagger is almost done, but before I finish it, I decide to dip the blade in a special acid called ferric chloride. This acid will make a cool pattern called a mosaic on the blade. First, I clean the blade really well, and then I put it in the acid. I'm super excited to see how it turns out!
Next, I use coffee to make the blade darker and bring out the pattern even more. It takes a few tries to get it just right, but in the end, I get the look I want. Then, I put a shiny wax finish on it to protect it and make it look even better.
Now that the blade is etched, darkened, and shiny, I work on the fittings. I sand them until they are super smooth and shiny too. Then, I use a special process called gun bluing to create my black mirror finish.
Finally, I sharpen the dagger so that it's super sharp and ready to use. I put all the pieces together, including the stone handle, dark blade, and black fittings with gold inlays.
I'm so happy with how the Serenity Dagger turned out, especially with the stone handle that I've been wanting to try for a long time. I want to tell all of you not to be afraid to try new things and take on challenges in your own projects. It's so much fun to see what you can create! May the Forge Be With YOU!

how much would you sell this knife for? is 25k enough?
What Caranuba wax do you use?
Stunning knife, for the fittings have you ever tried micro mesh sandpaper?
That is so beautiful Kyle!!!!
I enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Beautiful work
This is the type of ceremonial blade you could have handed to a king as a gift. There is so much to look at with this piece.
I agree, its that worthy.
Yes Louie the 14th king of France would have approved of this dagger
And be named chief smith shortly afterwards.
Every time I see a new blade from you, I can't believe you could make a better one. Then you go ahead and make an even better one. Fantastic work!
Way to make fun of people that died on the titanic dude
@@lolwut6666absolutely mortifiying how they used a movie clip!! this is devastating
Kyle, you're hands down one of the greatest bladesmiths of all time. Your attention to detail, creative vision and level of meticulousness is unmatched as far as I'm concerned.
They really need higher work benches. His spine is a 90 degree bend for hours a day!
@@tbrowniscool I can agree with that.
Yes you correct sir.
The Craftsmanship is just on another level.
The dagger looks enchanted for Christ sakes.
I see a Kyle Royer video, I click. This man is not making knives. This is pure artwork. When you have reached this level of time and knowledge in any craft you are making pure fine art in my opinion. Amazing work, can't get enough!
This is what's called functional art.
First of all, why can a knife not be a art? Secondly, this is much more of a knife than a piece of art. I can smear a pound of butter into a corner of a museum and call it art and I need 0 skills at anything for that.
Hereby I confirm every single word of your post 😅
My favourite part about all your builds, is how much of your soul you poor into them. This dagger is incredibly beautiful. Well done!
I didn't think I would like an S guard on a dagger... It's actually pretty cool, I love the entire build from tip to sheath!
And thank you for everything you do for us beginning knife builders out here trying to piece together information!
God Bless ✝️
That is honestly the most beautiful knife I've ever seen. I love the Damascus design. It looks almost like leaves or petals up close, but it looks like scales from a distance.
In 1000 years, these knives will be in the museum.
Your work is just so next level!
that's a masterpiece. the royal purple in the handle mixed with the gold and crazy damascus layout. looks like something designed for royalty.
Just a awesome piece brother. That’s the coolest dagger I have ever seen in my lifetime. You rock dude
As a craftsman, you stand alone at the very top in your attention to detail. You rarely see perfection in art. But damn you've done it again.
The day i saw one of your blades,i was hooked. What an amazing art of blacksmithing.
THIS is an awesome piece Kyle. The way the handle plays in the light with almost silver flecks in it. I wonder what this would look like with a turquoise or chrysocolla handle. In any case, I think the purple is absolutely gorgeous. Congratulations!!
You are an artist mate! I am a mere mortal in the presence of a more beautiful and everlasting object. Even being able to see it is breathtaking, I can't imagine how it would feel to hold it. Watching this legitimately made me feel small. Like peering into a piece of fantasy....
For a few years now I have been watching you content I would say undoubtedly no question you have to be the best knife maker in the world I have no idea what you do with your knives after they are finished but I do hope they go to some of the best knife collectors in the world like myself just something about in a few have the absolutely love keep up the great work I hope you make 100 more
You keep outdoing yourself with your knives and daggers. The mosaic is phenomenal and that stone handle is great. I can’t believe that you could find a stone that great quality and size that you could make a handle.
Another amazing piece of art! I want one of your pieces so bad...
This is by far the most beautiful blade I've seen made, well done!
This is hands down my favorite piece I've seen you make!
The shots with the LED strip around the etch tube were amazing. Great idea. Amazing dagger fellas.
i love that pattern, looks like dried leaf during autumn . very pleasing look
Creating national treasures, one knife at a time. On every level - unbelievable.
Absolutely beautiful knife 🔪 buddy nice job!.blessings 👍 👌
Wow, just wow! Your knives are incredible!!
Trabajo impecable...una verdadera obra de arte.Felicitaciones Kyle.
When you put this in the serenity playlist, you can officially move it into the completed projects group, congratulations
By far You are The King's Favorite Knife Maker in all of His Royer Land and are ours also, cheers Mate..
This is why I like to watch you work, you treat every piece like it's your first-born.
Wow I am in awe of your ability. Artwork doesn't say it at all. Its something more that there is no word for.
This it the man I can believe is a modern bladesmith.
No words could properly describe that beauty...
I've been watching for years and yet have not lost that sense of awe when you complete a project. 😮 truly amazing
It is genuinely inspiring watching you work, Kyle. You are the epitome of a perfectionist, and it always shows in the details of the finished piece. Truly entertaining and educational content…keep up the amazing work!
The Dagger is something I would see a King wear in throne room. Something to never be used but always admired, until the day someone attempts to kill him and he stab's them with it, showing it was a functional beauty all along.
Great short story!😊
You do great works. But, this... this... this is on a completely new level. From material selection, to creating the sheath, to creating the knife, itself, this has been an odyssey. Brilliant work!
Kyle.... This is art on a multiple angle... Beautiful result!
my favourite part in the base of the blade its got a really cool shape and the way its inset into the guard is awesome, also the stone handle is sick
You are just a spectacular master of your craft. As someone else said, you have easily cemented yourself as one of the greatest blade-smiths in human history. Thank you for sharing your work.
Nothing less than perfect. Say hello to the family. Love you guys…
No.
Absolutely stunning craftsmanship.
This dagger is gorgeous.
If they ever made a museum of blacksmithing I sincerely hope they add your work in an exhibit.
I watch a lot of makers, and that is perhaps the most beautiful knife I have ever seen.
Truly beautiful.
You are an absolute Jedi when it comes to bladesmithing, my friend. 👌🏼
Kyle, your attention to detail, from the macro level to the micro level, is astounding. It makes me wonder how your brain is wired and how I could get some. And it is only exceeded by your patience. If I were to critique anything, it's that you bend over too much. Your back will one day pay a serious price. You don't feel it as much now when you're young and strong but you will eventually.
I hope to one day have you make something for me. It would be a real treasure.
This is by far the nicest thing I’ve ever seen anyone make. I’m not really a materialistic person and have no need for things I don’t or can’t use but I would love to own this
I dont understand how you dont have millions of followers. Your work is mind blowing.
You and black dragon forge... Incredible
Beautiful dagger.
Amazing. One of the most gorgeous knives I’ve ever seen. Love the purple and black and gold.
You did it again Kyle! Your work is always so amazing, crafter of truly legendary items!
Beautiful piece, as always! My favourite part is definitely the handle, and I'm looking forward to seeing you use stone again in the future.
Would love to see a video on how much your work sells for. Would be a treat for everyone im sure. I'm sure this would sell for over 50K considering the time and effort you put into it and the craftsmanship.
The reason it called serenity is your enemies will become distracted by how beautiful the knife is before they meet their demise… bringing you sweet serenity and satisfaction.
O Ferreiro dos Deuses! Maratonei o canal!🌟
KyleRoverKnives - God Tier Smithing, the finest blades ever conceived and created and simply the best in the world.
Hi....à chaque fois,je suis super impréssionné par la qualité de son travail !! C'est un véritable artiste !!
Holy moly! Most beautifull knife ever!
*a full set of ceremonial armor made from this pattern would be stunning...as well as insanely labor intensive and reflectively expensive to produce but at the same time a master class in exquisite beauty*
Phenomenal work!! It’s been a pleasure watching you build this masterpiece over the series. I really appreciated how you showed sourcing the stone for the handle as well. Amazing work!!
Kyle's passion and enthusiasm is top notch
Very beautiful dagger and insane craftsmanship! Good job! Btw this guy gives me Doug DeMuro vibes lol.
Geez you make some of the absolute best looking knives ever you have an amazing talent sir
that is beautiful, color, shape, gloss... love the hard work you have put into this amazing dagger, the flower shapes and contrasts of color all just look phenomenal. ty for the opportunity to see it.
Clover pattern? I think that's a fitting name
You are just a one of a kind craftsman Kyle. Truly. This dagger is jaw-dropping beautiful.
I actually have tears in my eyes after seeing the final piece! Beautiful!
Idk if you will end up seeing this.
But if you want to sand higher than 3000 wet or dry. Get micromesh pads. By far the best thing ive found for high polishes well above that.
Also the 3m micron polishing films are very good for that.
It's breathtaking. I hope history remembers you as one of the greats.
Serenity is an absolutely stunning work of art!
I imagine blades like this were the type of thing kings would carry. So beautiful and such master craftsmanship.
It turned out amazing. Your skills are better today than ever. I love your work. Its good enough for a King.
Executed in absolute perfection. Can't imagine anything could be improved. Very impressive craftsmanship!
Forged in Fire really got me interested in blade smithing. But watching your videos really shows what a master blade smith can do when given the time to truly show their craft. Another beautiful blade.
Every single time I see your work you shock me more and more your quality and attention to detail is absolute beyond amazing
Some of the most beautiful knives in the biz for sure! I would love to be able to field test one of these things one day
Serenity dagger just might be my favorite of all time. It's absolutely Stunning! That should be in a museum, it's that special. I can't decide which part of this blade I like best, each part is gorgeous, that handle...the sheath, the damascus, the guard...i mean...just WOW! Thank you Kyle for showing us here how much work you put into these blade builds.
@KyleRoyerYT reported you for pretending to be someone else.
There is no words to define the high quality of your craftsmanship. Brilliant
Love love your show all your work making all these different blades. Please make more videos love to watch you thank you so March.
The Serenity Dagger came out amazing, infact amazing doesn't even cover it. The balance point, the shine, the crisp lines of the gold inlay, the super neat patterning on the blade and a stone handle - all fitting into a matching sheath, absolutely fantastic work. I've enjoyed this build a lot!
Best knife maker on YT. I love how u don't settle for anything less than perfection.
I keep thinking......the previous project has to be his magnum opus and then, Serenity is finished and i have to rethink what this man is capable of creating! Its just stunning!
Oh wow. The finish and pattern on this blade is absolutley next level. Holy crap was not excpecting that
What a truly beautiful knife, the handle is amazing! Now it needs a stand worthy of holding it
Drewling on my screen. This dagger came out soooo freaking nice ❤
It's so perfect it almost doesn't look real. Absolutely masterful piece.
ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!!! You do some pretty amazing work!
I bow down to your mastership of this craft good sir.
Absolutely astonishing.
Would love to see this level of utter artistry in axes... Often see people making very nice axes, but never to this level of pure art
I''ve been watching Alec Steele's channel about damascus blades for a while until if found this channel which for some reason hasn't gone ballistic. These knives are in another universe !!! It must be quite upsetting to part with these stunning creations. PS I hope you pick up many more subscribers soon Kyle. I
I think that's most gorgeous dagger I've ever seen 🗡🔥
Wow, the damascus is amazing and the combo Purple+Black+Silver+Gold is a must !
you really do make the most beautiful knives dude.
this entire project was a great watch.
Man that’s is so crazy good it’s definitely a beautiful peace.
Finally! So excited for this video…I’ve been waiting and it’s awesome to see the finished product.
Thanks for sharing Your Art with us.
It is soooo beautyful.
sir! you are a rrreal master! it's an honor just to see you work!
I appreciate that!
It's beautiful. Nothing more I can say. Appreciate your content.
