I love it more when you're working on the tang and because of improper grip of the tongs, you hit the piece too hard and it spins into low earth orbit, whizzing past you face. Yep, its always safe in the forge, no hazards at all.
@@aaronyoung8301 I love when I drop a piece of hot steel and it lands on something that I really don't want melting under the heat, so my quick thinking tells me to golfer swing my tongs and send the thing flying instead of just picking it up, mainly because II know I'd take WAY too long trying to pick it up with the friggen tongs in the first place.
Tgis was a great job you did exactly what they explained on that workss channel and you exibited your skill very well o love the vids keep em coming sir
Fantastic video and great job. I always like watching your videos because you still do as much as you can the old fashioned way and still turn out a great piece.
Borax. It works as flux to prevent oxygen from forming iron oxide on the surface of the steel and messing with the forge welding. Makes things a lot easier when forge welding essentially.
Hey, i'm wandering, what are you doing at 9:08 ? I don't think I've ever seen anybody doing a similar thing, i'm curious x) Anyways, that's a gorgeous piece of work, as always ^^
I was applying a thin layer of ''clay'' (it's really fireplace sealant but it does the same thing) it helps protect the steel a wee bit when quenching. There is not really a need for it when oil quenching, more common to do with a water quench but I thought I'd try it out just for the heck of it. Thank you!
According to that works you should shape the back of a knife before the blade, and they recommend tapering the insert so it's wider at the front of the insert in order to compensate for the front of the blade being narrower, at least that was my understanding, I've never made a blade in my life but here I am trying to tell someone how to do it.
What powder? I used a bit of forge scale to dye the epoxy black if that is what you were wondering. I already moved just got settled with the computer so I have some videos to edit and upload that I filmed before moving. Thank you!
Or do you mean the white powder when I was forging? That's borax. It works as flux to help clean the steel and prevent oxygen from forming iron oxide on surface of steel when forge welding. Basically makes forge welding a lot easier.

Subtle yet awesome, professional yet educational, your no-nonsense honesty and work ethic is much appreciated sir.
Thank you!
Don't you just love when you're chiseling something in two and it just rocket shots apart
I feel like the risk of burning the crap out of his leg with a red hot piece of metal might make it a little less funny in the moment
@@varalyn9714 Us smiths know a funny dance to do in order to avoid getting hit by it

Amazing as always. Keep up the good work, your an inspiration!
Thank you so much!
Finally I found a good enough master to inspire my work on
This guy is how I learned to be a blade smith
@@tyreldalzell1489 awesome to hear :)
Far from a master but thank you!
I think it’s amazing how you can take a chunk of metal and turn it into something like that. You are extremely talented! Love your videos.
Nice mate, looking forward to having you back properly
Thanks man! Well I got a workshop yesterday so should be up and running soon! :)
@@MakeNCreate brilliant mate all coming together.
Y’all need to do a collab! Your Imagination pushed to the limits!
Tgis was a great job you did exactly what they explained on that workss channel and you exibited your skill very well o love the vids keep em coming sir
Thank you very much!
Except for tapering the high carbon insert.
Nicely done san mai kitchen knife.🔪🎸.
Bon soir. Vous avez fait un très bon travail. J'aime bien regarder vos vidéos. Merci.
Fantastic looking craftsmanship, please keep giving us the videos. Very inspiring !!!!!
I'd love to get busy in the kitchen with this. Awesome job!

Fantastic video and great job. I always like watching your videos because you still do as much as you can the old fashioned way and still turn out a great piece.
That's what I try to do :). Thank you very much!
This go turns out to be a great achievement. Congrats.
Thank you very much! Yes I was very happy it worked out.
Шедевр!!!
Very beautiful knife and great job making it

Far from it but it's a start. Thank you!
Beautiful work.
Thank you!
That was totally awesome!
Thank you man!
Most inspiring, thank you so much
verry good 👍
Now this is a sight for sore eyes before work
hehe glad to hear so! Thank you!
@@MakeNCreate no worries, I'm really enjoying all these forge welding project you've been doing
Hello, that is a nice knife, i like it a lot. Does the coffee etch last, or does it rub off with use.
Regards Chris.
The contrast and darkness has dulled a bit with use but it stays fairly well. Thank you Chris!
@@MakeNCreate I’m also interested with Damascus, does the pattern stay after sharpening? I don’t know because I’ve never owned a Damascus knife
@@oscar-dl7hv it stays fairly well.
Another great way to cool down a blade slowly is but it in a bucket of wood ash, it also prevents scaling on your metal
Nice 😄😄
Great job as always 👍. You and koss should collab sometime. Would be pretty cool
I like those files in the beginning in the background
nice work man keep going
aamazing job
nice
Nice job I want ask you what powder that you use to make axe

Wow it amusing you Are master!
Not quite, but thank you!

What kind of coals do you use
Awesome 👍! Can you make a karambit knife?

Will you try to do a sword one day?
Yes definitely!

Hi, How are you?
To go the same way unswerving - especially for yourself. ^O^
damn top notch work as always bro. what grit do you end up taking that wood to and what are using in that jar to put a finish on it?
Raw linseed oil in the jar
Think it took this one up to 600 grit. It's raw linseed oil. Thank you!
Hi, I have a question. What is that white powder you put on the iron at 02.45 and for what purpose do you put it?
borax. Oxygen barrier, prevents the formation of scale. Helps with forge welding.
Bom dia bom trabalho
Where do you get the coal from?
👍
Why did you cut off the corner of the edge steel at 1:00?
سكين ممتازه جدا انا محتاج واحده كم السعر لو سمحت
Can you please make an Spanish Cutlass from Assassin's Creed Black Flag? :)
Why you clay it before quenching? Do you think that was nesessary?
It's to reduce the chance of cracking during a water or fast oil quench.
Awesome looking blade, fine work, but I have one question (as I am someone with little to no knowledge in blacksmithing): why the coffee?
for the etch, i know
It darkens the carbon steel
Like Tyrel said: It helps further darken the carbon steel without being an aggressive etchant like the ferric chloride. Thank you very much!
Did you go in forged in fire
Ew
Nope.
Then go yuou you have talent
If you use coffee to etch does it have to be hot???
Hot coffee will work faster but cold coffee does the job too... just slower.
@@MakeNCreate Nice to know cheers for that.
What is the role of Borax when applied to the iron?
It melts turning into a glaze that acts as an oxygen barrier so the steel doesn't oxidize and form scale, which can prevent a good forge weld.
@@MakeNCreate Good explanation👍. Thank you
Forgeron en short... rare..!!
實在是看不懂= =~為什麼已經冷掉了還加入硼砂?
Ho...yes.
What powder do you use? You never used something like this before.
And, are you not going to move another country anymore??
What powder? I used a bit of forge scale to dye the epoxy black if that is what you were wondering. I already moved just got settled with the computer so I have some videos to edit and upload that I filmed before moving. Thank you!
Or do you mean the white powder when I was forging? That's borax. It works as flux to help clean the steel and prevent oxygen from forming iron oxide on surface of steel when forge welding. Basically makes forge welding a lot easier.
@@MakeNCreate yes borax im asking, ok. 👍 Thank you for answers, curious to see your new space and new projects. Keep going 💪🏼🤗
can you try and make a sword ?!
at one point yes.
Why do you use such large coal?
@keith moore must be sold for coal stoves I would have to guess. Personally I’d break into smaller chunks but whatever works!
yeah
esse cabo nao e bom ele quebra sem o anem de contesao
Heyooo
