The combination of precision edge and untouched since it left the press is just chef's kiss. This knife tells a story of it's own creation and I'm in awe of your skill sir!
Please get a camera filter for when you are welding!!! It hurts my soul to imagine the sensor getting burnt out and having to wait longer for your videos.... apart from that, brilliant video as always! I never thought you could forge weld stainless but this is impressive
That's a lovely end result. Brilliant jump cuts with the welding / heating in the forge, too. I even appreciated the subtle one at the heat treat. The change in the oil temp caught my eye. I'm a simple guy, I guess.
I feel bad leaving a negative comment, but I would like to comment on the chemical knowledge required to make knives. That is... When different metals are in contact and there is moisture, a galvanic current flows and the metal with a lower ionization tendency corrodes. This is called "galvanic corrosion". The order of ionization tendency is ‘K > Ca > Na > Mg > Al > Zn > Fe > Ni > Sn > Pb > Cu > Hg > Ag > Pt > Au’ Stainless is an alloy, but it is chemically It has the similar ionization tendency as copper (Cu). Therefore, although the sides will not rust, the edge will rust more easily than a knife made entirely of high carbon steel. However, if you coat the blade with oil and you use it as an ornament, there is no problem .
San Mai: ancient blacksmithing secret Also San Mai: Metal sandwich lol. Nice work! Love the look of it! This is one of those knives that makes you feel extra extra fancy when you're prepping food!
I like these traditional making knife videos, seeing all the process from the forge to the manual handle. It was with this content that I started following the channel, and love to see again once in a while. Greetings from Brasil!
It seems like ages since you've done one of these. I love your knife handles. They have fascinated me for years. I used to enjoy the elaborate pins with the black resin in them. So happy to have watched this ❤
Amazing - looks incredible as always - might be good though if you test it on camera with a proper metal hardness tester (durometer I think) instead of paper and vegetables!
1:58 using parkside grinder is great but try using the brushless one from the same brand with a smart battery pack it's something extra ordinary with a lot of power
Nice work! Looks like a beautiful low maintenance everyday-work-horse chef knife! Just out of curiosity: Are the deep "imperfections" at the top edge of the blade fully intentionally or rather a compromise of material loss during grinding and asthetics? Greets from Germany
Pretty counter-intuitive: your typical stainless steel has a low carbon content, but 440C is quite the outlier! It has a higher carbon content than type 1070 high carbon. Picking martensitic 440C was an excellent choice. It would have been quite a bit more difficult to try and make this from 1070 high carbon and, say, austenitic 316L.
Ogni tuo video in cui fai coltelli mi fa salire da una parte l'orgoglio patriottico e dall'altra un po' di invidia dato che la mia bottega stenta a partire... appena riuscirò a sistemarla voglio "rubarti" un paio di progetti 😂
Excellent knife blade !!! Is it possible to do something like this only by hand, without hydraulic press? I want to venture into the San Mai technique, but I have no hydraulic press. Thank you
Are you able to distinguish letters in your alphabet (if that word applies to your text) without zooming in text above the system defaults? I have difficultly seeing all the details of it while I'm seeing Latin alphabet fine.
@@user-wj1sw7ou2z I do not have auto translations enabled, so I did not understand the meaning of your message. I was just wandering about the Arabic script itself. With such small details in it, do you need to increase your font size or you can understand it as it is by default. For example, above the character all the way right, I can hardly see two dots, but on youtube, I cannot see details of the character next to the line. ق This character when placed in a word has a circle only 3 pixels wide and it is barely visible.

I can't believe how beautiful, and yet quickly, this one turned out! One of my favorites I've seen from you
Thank you! 😊
It’s not an official word, but it sums up the end result…….”Flabergastery” Keep it up, and keep it in!
Really good transitions between the welding clips. Your editing efforts are not going unnoticed.
Yep, I liked that also. It is improving. ✌from Alberta 🇨🇦

I love the “jaggedness” of both edges

That's a very beautiful finish and pattern
This turned out to be a beautiful piece of usable art thank you for sharing this with us six stars brother

It looks like a cave from the side, with stalactites and stalagmites. I normally hate the forge-finished look, but it works here.
Absolutely beautiful nuff said!!!!
Have to admit watching your hydraulic press in action is very satisfying!

Loved watching this. Inspires me to have a go
What a beautiful blade.
Very nice job !
Very good BB... You have that Damascus stuff down to an art... Take care my friend..
That turned out so awesome. The blade looks almost like a cut out of a cave with the stalactites and stalagmites such a cool look. Bravo sir!
It seems like ages since you've done one of these. I love your knife handles. They have fascinated me for years. I used to enjoy the elaborate pins with the black resin in them. So happy to have watched this ❤
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed ❤
Great work 👍
your videos make it look easy !
Good job 👍👍👍Thank you for sharing. Be safe 🇨🇦
I agree that this is a masterpiece!
Nicely done mate, came out pretty!
what a wild looking knife. love it
Craftsmanship at its best
That's a very beautiful knife sir well done you ❤
Dang. Incredible
Beautiful knife and you did an excellent job making it!!!
I enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Just need your makers mark 😊
That knife would be a fine addition to anyone's kitchen!
Beautiful
Turned out really nice. Blade looks fantastic and the handle is beautiful as well. Nice work with your editing. Very nice content. ✌from Alberta 🇨🇦.
Gorgeous knife
Gorgeous knife!
dude, kudos! That is a fine piece of cutlery. That blade finish is phenomenal.
Beautiful piece of art more than a knife 🔪...
Beautiful knife mister well done
This is a great knife. You did it well. 😎😎
Very nice! Love the overall look!
Nice
You make this look way too easy 😁👍
You re getting pretty good at welding. So satisfying to watch 😊😊
Awesome video and a gorgeous blade!
I've been wondering about stainless and steel - a very cool combination!
Impressive as hell.😎😎😎👍👍👍
Hey 👋 man how you doing bro nice!!..knife!..nice job buddy blessings 🙌 🙏

i am suprised you have never been on forged in fire dude, been watching you for years
And the second reason is that he is Italian and Forged in Fire is based in the US.
Fabulous! Can I get away with the layers being mig welded, or only tig?
how much steel do you lose in the damascus forging process?
Great result! But it's not Damascus steel. It's a classic 3 layer blade, right?

It could be only because of my system font not well optimized for the Arabic script

O que vc faz com as peças que vc produzis. Sou seu fã aqui do Brasil
👍👍👍
Make Galadriel's dagger. :)
What was the stainless you used, love the blade
Since 440 is hardenable, would a cheaper stainless work as well?
What kind of stainless and high carbon? Oh just read the description!
👍
What is the etch-ant you are using to instantly show the high carbon (on spine and edge at the begining)?
That is a sweet piece , how would you go doing it wit 7 pieces, 3 steel and 4 stainless.
What do u think u have total time in making the knife start to finish
i am asking this beacus i dont know. whats the difference between the wet stones and the green thing he showed after the wet stones?
Why does it look bent to me when you're showing the straight view from the handle?
Why in the cutting dose it seem there are some dead spots in the edge? It should be a smooth seamless cut
What was "Damascus" about that? It looked pure San Mai to me.
You should sell a fixed blade knife for personal carry.
Do you do electroplating?

Little did not finish, Bro! sharpening is rather weak
👍👏👏👏
