Parks 50, this came out razor sharp. I quenched after non magnetic for a minute. Then tempered at 375 for one hour. Parks 50 is a little expensive, but works well on steels that require a fast quench. This steel is probably around 1075 or so, so Canola oil would probably work too. It takes just a little experimentation with the quench and temper to get a nice usable blade. And this steel takes parkerizing really well. Thanks for the comment.

Thanks a lot, I love steel sculptures and appreciate the comment

You are the first my friend.

I have sold one so far, the pipe wrench makes a really tough knife. Thank you for commenting!

Large, medium, or small? :)

@@sigmaforge6232 medium I suppose, like one I could carry on my belt at work or out and about.

@@sigmaforge6232you got a website or anywhere I can buy one?

​@@patrickmarquez4619where should I ship it?

@@sigmaforge5088 nice try

Thank you, that means a great deal to me. I really love sharing my projects. Thank you so much for the encouragement. I am getting ready to upload some more projects!!

Thanks 🤗

Thanks for the insider info!

Thank you so much.

Thanks Bryson. I have alot of machining experience so I tend to pick knife projects that have more machine work. Entropic finish for titanium is one of my favorites! You can vary the temperature to get more blues or purples. If you get it just right you get a lightning effect. When will I see a video of one of your projects?

I have no video gear, no editing software, and nothing new to report! As soon as I invent a spectacular new damascus pattern I will be sure to post it! @@sigmaforge6232

@@brysonalden5414 Maybe a collaboration is in order? I can make a special mosaic pattern, get it to rough shape, and you finish it. What do you think? I would love to work on a project with you.

It really does, with a proper heat treatment 1095 will give you dark lines, and a good finish on the 15n20 will be very shiny! Thank you

Sup, Playa

I will, planning on an anvil review video. Thanks again.

Thanks Martin, you are the Man.

Thanks a lot!

Okay. Thinking of doing some canister damascus with some laser cut images .

Very nice, I’m impressed

Thanks Nick!

Thanks Nick! You are the man@@nickjones824

Hi Bryson, Thank you. I am trying to make each one better than the last! I will have a nice chunk of gear damascus left over from from one of my upcoming knives. I can ship it your way if you want. Thank you again.

Thanks Phil.

Hi Bryson, hope you are doing well. I had the advantage of doing lots of tig work in my youth. Practice a little everyday and you will surprise yourself. One bit of advice, get a high quality welding hood, do not skimp on that. #1 rule in tig, " if you cannot see well, you cannot weld well". After parkerizing I wet sanded the blade back to bare metal with 400 grit, then I etched in ferric-chloride. I did not want a bunch of manganese Dioxide dissolved in my etching solution.

Thanks for getting back to me! I do have a high quality hood, thanks to my step-brother the welding instructor. Can't imagine why you didn't want foreign chemicals in your ferric! @@sigmaforge6232

Thanks Frank, you are the man

Thank you, Can't you see this woman's a Nun!

The original Americans used Tomahawks, by that logic all true Americans should have one. So you for sure need one. I will posit this idea, you are not an American unless you have a tomahawk. We can then structure a societal hierarchy, those who have tomahawks, and those who do not. Which group would you rather be in? Yeah, thats what I thought.

Thanks Martin!

Thank you so much for watching!!

It will Keeeel

I am striving to make these the best I can. Thank you for taking your time to watch this.

I Salute you my friend !!!!!

If you ever want to forge something let me know. You never know the creativity that is just latent within yourself. You will excel in whatever you strive for my friend.

Thanks Nick, This one was different for sure. I will do a video on sharpening a knife next!!

Thanks Bryson, I use my tig to do all my fusion welds in damascus tiles with no filler rod. I will mig the ends of a new billet sometimes because the ends are always waste. Glad to hear about the Miller, they make a good machine. I should do some close ups of my tig process on my next video, just to show my set-up.

Thank you very much. I appreciate the comment and I glad you enjoyed it!

Thanks Willow!!!!

And I love how you turned out.😘

Hi Bryson, hope you are doing well, I always make more than I need, I am still prone to mistakes! Let me know if you want a slice of it, I can send you a nice .250 thick section. I also had a lot of chain, the metal dumpster at work had a 10 ft piece of chain.

Thanks! I did get by TSC and bought 10' of new chain, but rather than stick it in a canister I'm going to make a flower pot for a sculpture I'm finishing. Still fussing with a couple of more traditional damascus builds, so need to get those done for customers before I try something new and different! @@sigmaforge6232

That would be cool!

Thank for commenting, it helps the channel! I bought a whole bag of spoons from the thrift store for 5 dollars, it also had some knives and forks I use in some of my sculptures.

Thank you!!!

Thank you, it is one of my favorite finishes for titanium, it always comes out a little different each time!

Thank you so much. I think I had 34 hours on this one.

Let me know what size!

Thank you, the blue came out perfect on this one. I will do some more titanium on the next projects.

Thank you, happy to share it with you!

Thank you for commenting

Thank you so much, I am trying to make each knife better than the last! 3 foot swiss army knife, Hmmmm.

@@sigmaforge6232 😃

Thank you so much.

Thank you, My goal is to make functional art! My next knife coming up has titanium handles!

@@sigmaforge6232 sounds interesting..you can make a " Damascus " from pre 1982 pennys ( real copper) and dimes or nickels too..unfinished art is a missed opportunity..Cheers..

Thank you !

Thank you so much!

Thanks ✌️
