    I've been watching knife making videos for a long time now, but this the first time I see someone really explain what they are doing and why. lot of them are silent or just talk about the steps they are in, but you my friend made me listen to every word you said, and it lights too many bulbs over my head.

    Usually commentary annoys me on forging videos but yours is an exception. The way you describe what you're doing very informatively and casually makes your commentary very entertaining to listen to

    Was complaining to wifey about UA-cam recommendations with scantily clad gals bow hunting, then your vid was recommended and I noted the wedding band. Subscribed, excellent detailed and interesting content. There should be a specific profile setting for married guy video recommendations.

    Very educational, clear easy to understand instructions. Such a beautifully well done work of art that is functional. I also liked it that there was not loud annoying "music" that would have covered up what you were saying. Thank you so much.

    This is by far my favorite forging channel. I love that you narrate and tell us what you're doing and I really like that you forge as much of the blade shape vs relying on cutting and grinding.

    I'm a car guy, not a knife maker but I can tell you a plasma cutter will be a welcome addition to your shop. I bought an inexpensive Chinese machine and it is absolutely wonderful. I don't have nearly as much need as you do, but I consider it money well spent. We're only talking around two hundred bucks. Think about it.

    My wife and I just happened on Forged In Fire program a while back and I became engrossed in this. As an avid woodworker, I felt this looked like something I might like to try, but know nothing about the science and metallurgy of this. I built my first forge (a mini) yesterday…the journey begins. Thank you for this excellent video! Subscribed.

    New Jersey Steel Baron packs their shipments well. Kudos to you for actually forging a blade and not being one of the millions of 'stock removal' knife guys. Guard jacks are a bit less violent way to 'seat' your guard without hammering and they are easy to make.
    Nice job.

I will have to try your dilution ratio for ferric, so thanks in advance for better looking patterned steel!
