    noticed something cool about the sparks around 0:05. do you notice the how wavy they are?
    I freeze framed the video and ive been trying to figure out why.
    Ive come to this conclusion: the sparks appear wavy because the camera is shaking. the wavelength of the sparks is the sound wave that traveled through the anvil, into the floor, and up the tripod.
    I'd love to hear your thoughts on why they are wavy. Like is there something with the metal cooling that causes them to splay in random directions?

    Neat shop, gr8 video, well done, it never occurred to me that welding rods would ever be considered for a knife. I don’t know how you’ve managed to not get stuff in your eyes, when you don’t always wear glasses even when pounding the hot steel or grinding. Even when wearing safety glasses, I once had several metal bits get embedded into my eye, that entered when bouncing off of my cheek and into a small opening on my safety glasses. My eye got infected. It was so painful to have eye doctor remove the little bits from it. But it healed after bits being removed and antibiotics. Best of luck, and be careful. Thanks for sharing.

      I imagine how the blades were made in the past, with a lot of injured eyes and no protective devices. You are right eyewear is a must when working with anything that is heavy-duty jobs. But the knife is a charm!! What a skilled man!

      Kitchen knives don´t need full tang because they are not made to chop wood or do survival stuff, they need to be sharp and comfortable in hand so you can do precision cutting. This is a kitchen knife handle in a japanese stile. Most japanese kitchen knives tang length is 2/3 of a handle length.

    Much better! This time I can see that you paid much more attention to try and include as much as possible for your starting material, plus the multiple cutting and forge welding is the best way to create a good welded material with as little possibility for cold shuts as possible! I can see that you have improved greatly with using your power hammer, and I don't know if I have said this before, but you swing that 5 pound blacksmith's hammer like Thor Himself! Like a Boss! On top of all of that, you can see that with your cutting and reforging of the pieces, that although there is more wasted metal, it's more than worth it for the final product. your etching of the blade proves this to anyone with eyes. the etching of this blade proves that you have come along way in making your blades and that I certainly can expect more and better things from your channel. Also it was excellent that you could go to a local shop and use their magnetic grinder, this also improves the quality of your steel, making them much more even throughout so there are no groves from the hammer when you want a perfectly level blade for the kitchen. an outdoor knife can have hammer marks but a kitchen blade should be even and perfectly level throughout. Excellent work!

I know from watching videos that damascus is usually a mix of high carbon and a nickel steel then etched with ferric chloride but how/why does something like this etch, it's all the same material isn't it? I also understand that cutting it up and reforging makes a pattern but is that also the same reason why it was able to be etched ?

    • @nativeson608
      @nativeson608 Рік тому +4

      It’s a flux material. It keeps the metal from oxidizing when he is “welding”the rods together. It stops inclusions from gettin the voids that would keep the metal from fusing, making it weak and brittle.

    • @TopHIgnite
      @TopHIgnite Рік тому

      It's borax. The boric acid keeps the steel from oxidizing and developing forge scale during heating. Oxidized steel can not fuse during the forge welding process and the results would be 2 hot pieces of steel being mashed together and never bonding. How do I know? Because I took have been through the trial and error process of learning forge welding in my own shop. It's a scientific process full of metallurgy and temperatures.

    Gracias por compartir tan excelente video de verdad muy satisfactorio. Aunque me decepciono bastante ver lo que hiciste con la espiga, un error fatal. Un punto de fatiga sin retorno y en un área tan importante. Saludos un gran abrazo.

      That tang will snap at some point imo. I was shocked when he welded it together. Only time I have ever seen someone do that. It was a no for me immediately when that happened. Hope to hear more about it. Someone once said to me, cut a butter knife in half and join those two halves back together any way you choose and then drop it onto a counter and listen to it. Then drop one that has never been cut and rejoined and listen to it. There is a major difference in the two pieces and there always will be a difference in them.

    I'm curious how you got such dramatic low layer contrast with one metal? Also, are you not concerned about the many delaminations that occurred during the forging process? I have many more questions, but don't want it to sound like I'm slamming on you.
