A war scythe or military scythe is a form of pole weapon with a curving single-edged blade with the cutting edge on the concave side of the blade. The blade of a war scythe has regularly proportioned flats, a thickness comparable to that of a spear or sword blade, and slightly curves along its edge as it tapers to its point.

Good job dude and merry Christmas!
Nice fantasy weapon… But it’s not a 'war' scythe, though. Those are oriented straight out of the shaft, not at a 90 degree angle like this one (and farm scythes). Having it like this would make it impractical to use in combat, as you'd have to step in to get the blade behind the opponent. But I can’t blame you, it’s the common depiction in fantasy art. It would be nice to see you make a real war scythe for comparison.
@@mikkohernborg5291 I
Actually agreed with this he makes a fair point
Is that you rh?...your fan from philipines
I've always wanted to make one of these, but I was told a 28 to 30 inch saw blade was a better choice to use to cut out a scythe blade shape. But i never thought a giant wrench would be an option too.

If its big enough it will work
For someone who wants to be a blacksmith, this is the kinda art perfection I want to strive for
The idea of any Restoration or renewing is good but only on something that much useful or necessary like Traces of Civilizations , fossils , jewels , gold , silvers , important books , important papers documents , documents videos documents , important reports , important records...... and so on
just to avoid wasting time and loosing money

,,, not weapons' but tools ,
@@pksvkpk4801 They can be used as weapons. There are even some martial arts that focus on it, both in Europe and Japan. This comes from the olden days when peasant farmers had to defend themselves from invasion with whatever tools they had lying around. Many opted for the scythe as it proved surprisingly effective, and eventually they started making scythes specifically for use on the battlefield. In fact, I've read that it's believed the peasant uprising of 11th century Poland featured scythes as a favored weapon among the poor.
I like to cut carrots with a schyte
@Pclav S oh, definitely. But for that matter, we tend see stouter construction and slightly longer handles on kamas meant for fighting than kamas meant for harvesting, but they're kamas still by design despite their relatively minor differences. Same practices in play with binding an opponent's weapon, countering with the other hand, and using the unique blade shape to attack from unexpected angles. Similar principles to the scythe, save for the differences inherent between polearms and single handed weapons fitting a similar niche.
As a fan of fighting braids, I will say that this is not just a fighting braid, it is a real work of art!
This guy could literally turn a rustic coin to a car, he is so talented
It's not just talent, it's skill. Forged out of practice.
@@The_Reaper_of_Death I think it is more skill than talent. Maybe the talent he has is in his aesthetic knowledge, but even this can be "forged" out of practice as well.

Just out of curiosity, do you ever sell any of these finished products or do you keep them as displays?
if he sells them then tht dude be rollin in money
If he sells the weapons that he creates we'd be back in the viking era
i think he keeps 'em as trophy for his content. I mean at least he has a physical proof. I would do the same tbh
if he sold he would be arrested by peasants
He sells them but you would have to be level 90 and above to unlock his shop.
Part of me is just screaming out - I WANT IT! looks absolutely beautiful, honestly one of the best ive seen

I am in love with this masterpiece. I wish I could request to have this made for me. I would never put it down. Keep up the amazing work my friend.

OLD SMITH: CREATES HISTROY
That thing is a beautiful work of art worthy of a king. It's not a suitable weapon for combat, but if you walk around with that thing in tow, you're bound to inspire fear and respect. Not a war scythe, but a powerful symbol none the less.
The greatest weapon is fear.
Might not be the best weapon for combat but if you swing that thing towards someone, it will cut an arm off easely
@@gabrieljordan9977 hence the fear and respect
Imagine capturing this guy and leaving him in your workspace for a day and then you come back and he’s turned a rusty wrench into an incredible sharp scythe
if you captured him he will kill you with it
Ultimate bossfight
man, what the in the bloody hell was this wrench used for, and more, who in sane mind sees a wrench and thinks "i could make a scythe with that" you are truly a very clever, skilled and creative person, congratulations
I can understand why my 15 yr old son wants to make this it's so amazing

اگر اینا واقعا کار خودته تو یک هنرمند واقعی هستی
You must have been doing this a very long time, the strength of forging is incredible
1 you must be stacked with homemade weapons, 2 im glad people still do this for a full time job its so cool
Always been a fan of the kami/hand scythe and kukri style blades, up to the point I wished damascus wasn't so expensive to buy and fold. Good use of an old wrench!
If you look hard enough, the scythe kinda looks like a bird, giving this elegant weapon so much opportunity for a fitting name. It looks so awesome, made with expertise and maximum effort, and by far one of the greatest weapons you’ve ever made!
Perhaps the crane?
Yeah. Something like the Steel Crane.
death flamingo
Brass Talon?
You are truly a master at your craft. Watching you create makes me want to be better in ALL aspects of my life!
Im very happy to know that still exists talented blacksmiths. On a magical land you would be my craftsman haha
This is one of the most amazing, most beautiful masterpiece of work I've ever seen created right in front of my eyes! This man is on another level! I want him on my team during an apocalypse lol
Man, it's videos like this that make me want to get into this as a hobby but I know it's a lot more difficult and time consuming than it seems. Probably expensive too, in terms of buying the equipment I mean. Anyway, that was an amazing creation, oh my.
Every hobby is expensive and time consuming, to be fair 😂 might as well make swords
Hola
@@CombatLegsVIDS yeah, but this is a hell of a lot more expensive that some other things
@@treesap2566 I'm sure some cost is offset by the youtube money he's making 👍
Honestly, you can find substitutes for some of the equipment if you know where to look. As an example, around railyards you can find track scraps to use as an anvil, old heater pipe can be cut for the forge, and you can get an 8 lb. hammer at Home Depot for under $50. The real expense is when you get the power tools and base materials.
These never get old
:0 this is the first scythe I've seen that wasnt just stick and a blade (probably because I live under a rock) and as a scythe enjoyer, I absolutely love this!
Yeah this is something very impressive and this video is gone be viral 💯✅🎊
I like using scythes in various games and if they had *THIS* scy- masterpiece, I probably couldn't hold my self back for a sec to play with it
This guy or girl should go on the show called Forge and Fire. Because they got some really good talent.
this man can now cosplay the grim reaper if he ever wanted to
Now this is evolution right here, from wrench to scythe!! Absolutely badass my friend! Great job.
It looks so gorgeous and stylish, I loved it
Thanks for showing us the progression
And btw, even if the blade was beautiful, what I loved the most was the handle, idk why, but I'd love to have a bow made like that ofc would be heavy and quite rigid but for the looks I'd but a dozen.
Amazing work and hope this new year may be full of new projects and good moments!
did you know that the handle revealed his face

Dude just made a sick scythe from a comically large wrench...Legend
If there was ever an apocalypse i would head straight to this guy's house if i lived near him which im a few seas away from
This man is genuinely the greatest smith alive
with a grinder maybe. 90 percent of his "forging" was grinding.
It’s so satisfying watching him creating the scythe
Well, it has no practical use but hell, it's cool. Also props for doing this, it isn't an easy blade to forge
Looks like a very dangerous weapon.
This was a fantastic project. I love the look of the brass and wood used for the handle, that looks spectacular. Great job, big thumbs up.
I don't think so the saw like area would catch on cloths and stuff.
@@kninzotagoni3635 unless the blade is sharp enough but probably not

Praise the LORD for creating neat materials!
I would legitimately pay good money for this. I am a total sucker for melee weaponry and I would absolutely LOVE to add this to my collection. Maybe I'll see about getting into blacksmithing and possibly making my own when I'm good enough.
considering the work its probably like 150$ or something, I haven't really bought many weapons so idk the price but I would assume it's buyable
@@connormessenger4756 Nah, this thing is a handmade masterpiece. I doubt you could get anything remotely like it for under a grand.
Watching the beginning of this video was a wrenching experience.
So much work goes into such a beautiful scythe! You are truly amazing at this
Farm8ng in the nether be like 3:46
Great finished product, but a few things to consider next time: forge in the bevels, it's cheaper and faster; did you run out of gas? The Kaowool needs replacing and sealing, the fibers can be blown out and get lodged in the lungs- this if anything else is a big deal. I would think about avoiding engine oil for quenching, it's unsafe and doesn't impart any practical level of carbon into the steel, but I do appreciate it is cheaper to obtain. At least you're doing it in the open air though.
Now i know what to do with my giant wrench collection
These kinds of TH-camrs are the kinds of people that could survive the apocalypse xD I mean, these guys can just make weapons out of random stuff 💥
Historically, war scythes were the same as a normal scythe, but the blade pointed up. Basically, a reverse naginata. This is not historically accurate. It is however, really epic.
Was about to post the same thing.
Even forged in fire got it wrong, which is really weird.
Muito legal o seu trabalho . Significado de perfeição .
This makes me love scythes even more
I love that at the beginning there just were a bunch of animals chillin’ 😂
I want one! Seriously though, this is gorgeous. Love the style!

Significado de perfeição 😍
wow this is an insane level of craftmanship! i love it!! how long did it take?!
A blacksmith should always have
Patient
Passion
And
Creativity
Oh wait I forgot one determination
A amazing weapon, deserves be handled by a scythe master. But to tell the truth, I wanted this scythe too 🤩
Its not a weapon, its a farmers tool. True war scythes would never have the blade running horizontal to the hilt. In a real fight, this thing would offer the user no balance, no power, no legibility, no reach. You can neither parry with this item or attack from a angle that wouldn't leave you completely exposed. The user would get crushed by anyone used a sword, spear, or mace. Real life combat scythes would have the blade running vertical to the hilt, effectively making the weapon a glaive, not a true scythe.
That was pretty slick! I was wondering why he was using styrofoam but now that I think about it the metal would be so hot that it would just melt it away and because of the sand it would cool and take the shape of the foam! Genius! Man I've been interested in learning how to make my own weapons and smithing in general ever since I was a child it always seemed like the coolest and most bad ass person in mythical tales was the guy who made the weapons for the adventures....i really love that this is possible with the right safety and know how even with basic objects that have rusted and been discarded ... he'll I got a whole garage full of things like that wrench and random metals he melted down for the handle....obviously I can just go outside and start making weapons but this video is deffinently getting me hyped to persue someone who could properly show me how to do these things....also doesn't hurt that I am well versed with grinders and saws and woodworking 😉
