    Question: How much of the metal do you lose to the scale falling off when you press it? Is it enough to notice or insignificant?

    • @copper7309
      @copper7309 2 роки тому +1

      Usually you lose one percent of metal when you heat it up. You can see piles of scale around the power hammer or anvil. But the amount of steel you use decreases as you forge and heat as the billet as the billet gets smaller as you keep heating and forge . I think a math size could come up with a formula for the amount of loss over time. A long answer for a simple problem.

    • @Simon-jr2oe
      @Simon-jr2oe 2 роки тому

      It depends on how often you have to heat it and the ratio between surface area and volume of your billet. From start to finish of making a more complicated pattern I’ve heard people losing as high as 3/4 of the material but that also depends on how much grinding you do. But I would say it is always enough to notice

    • @TyrellKnifeworks
      @TyrellKnifeworks  2 роки тому +5

      What Robert and Simon have said is spot on. This is why I say some patterns aren't realistic to do by hand because you'd need to start with so much steel because you'd have to do so many heats that you'd lose most of it to scale. This is one of those patterns. Thanks for watching.

    when you stack your steel on top of each other you draw it out then you crush corners for your C then do you flip the billet on its side so the layers are different than when you started. i hope i explaind it as best as i can

    • @TyrellKnifeworks
      @TyrellKnifeworks  2 роки тому +1

      When you stack your steel, you keep it in that orientation to crush the corners. Then you turn it 90 degrees so the layers are running up and down and press the bar flat. Make sense?

    I have what is probably a silly question but what would happen if you did a bar of twist pattern and stacked it like you would for a feather? Then split it just like you would a feather. I’m sure it’s probably been done but I’m wondering what the pattern would look like.

    • @TyrellKnifeworks
      @TyrellKnifeworks  2 роки тому

      You'd get some weird twist that wouldn't really be that recognizable. Plus to get a twist that thick it would have to be a twisted bar stacked on itself. I'm not sure what it would look like but probably something akin to a crushed W feather. Thanks for watching, Bill.

    As a non knife maker I understood the first uses of Damascus was for increased blade strength. Do all these modern variations also add strength?

    • @TyrellKnifeworks
      @TyrellKnifeworks  2 роки тому +4

      But you need to consider the steel from that period was terrible by today's standards. They first took bloom steel created in a furnace and then combined different steels in a crucible and melted them together to form traditional damascus or what we call "wootz" steel. This was stronger because it removed more impurities that plagued steel of that period. Today's modern steel is very pure and MUCH stronger so modern damascus is done by layering different kinds of steels to produce a pattern. In itself, it is not stronger but actually can be weaker than the original steel if not done correctly. You are forge welding those steels together and if any weld isn't done right, it introduces a point of failure. I hope this helps. Thanks for watching.

    You can buy wire for AR 500 that's a lot harder than typical ER70 wire for mild steel? I'm not a blacksmith but been a welder for 40 yrs, don't know if that helped or not?

    • @TyrellKnifeworks
      @TyrellKnifeworks  2 роки тому

      That wire would still not be the hardened steel that matches the steel in the work you're doing. It would show up differently when etched and look like a blotch. You don't want to introduce any different steel into the work piece and I very much doubt you'd find exactly the same steel in a wire for a mig. Thanks for watching.

      As it is a variation of hot cut, it should be doable by hand, depending on the size of the piece would probably require a few reheats

    • @TyrellKnifeworks
      @TyrellKnifeworks  2 роки тому

      I disagree a bit, I don't think feather is a pattern you can realistically do by hand. The problem is the number of layers, the crushed W's and the forge weld of the tall stack are incredibly challenging to do without a press. Could you do it with enough time and effort, sure. You're probably going to need 3x the amount of steel though because you're going to lose so much steel to scale.

      I always consider a twist on its own. Once you twist something, it really muddies the pattern and you lose any other pattern you did unless the twist is very loose. Generally its better to treat these on their own. Thanks for watching.

    That tungsten was sticking WAY TOO FAR outside the ceramic cup on your Tig torch. Also on the Tig welding, you don’t need to only use the mild steel Tig rod like ER70S or simply fusing the steel, you can actually get high carbon steel wire like 1080 wire from McMaster-Carr on a roll in various diameters so you are welding with steel that can be incorporated into the Damascus without needing to be completely ground out
