Good job sir! As a blacksmith myself, I appreciate and envy your craftsmanship, I am only just venturing into larger projects, and smiths like you help keep me critiquing and improving myself.
Many thanks, forge on Mate!

[@PaulPinto]

Jamie Parnell 👊thank you!

[@mcwolf1969]

Sheesh! I'm beginning to think there is nothing Mr. Pinto, can't forge or fabricate! That's a beefy hunting knife, even my family of hunters would find impressive!

[@FigmentsMade]

That is one heck of a knife! The ebony handle is a perfect match for that cool blade.

[@PaulPinto]

Thank you! I’m glad you like it

[@jamesg744]

Wow just wow

[@PaulPinto]

Thank you!!

[@justinwilsoncustoms6520]

[@dbuck01]

That's just insane! Beyond impressed. I can't even imagine...

[@PaulPinto]

[@alejandrogonzalez9918]

@@PaulPinto how much for a bricklayer trowel

[@kolbymorgan7802]

Wow that is incredible 👏

[@killerkane1957]

Paul, anyone can pick at this or that. The bottom line is you did a great job. You continue to push. That is the only way. Personally? I don’t exactly dig the design. But I strongly applaud your effort and progression.

[@bwhip]

The pattern left by the low layer count reminds me of a hamon. Beautiful job.

[@PaulPinto]

Thank you!

[@حسينآلمندوب-ك5ل]

مبدع استمر 👏👏

[@LockNLoad777]

You ever thought about FORGED IN FIRE? You would definitely win!

[@Nanoaiello]

I love damascus with just a few layers!!

[@brodiedonnelly6192]

Great camera work !

[@PaulPinto]

Thank you!

[@Mudtiresrc]

Nice blade...

[@PaulPinto]

[@КошмарКошмар-й2б]

Very good knife 👍👍👍👍🔥🔥🔥🔪🔪🔪🔪

[@PaulPinto]

Thank you!!

[@FredMcIntyre]

Beautiful knife! 😍🔪 Phenomenal job Paul! 👍🏻👊🏻

[@PaulPinto]

Thanks Fred!

[@mujimooj5445]

Dude you got skills

[@fxnepilogue]

I’m supremely jealous of your forging skills!!! Very impressed with the shape of this knife. Did you mean to not manipulate the pattern? I ask because I’ve done this on accident before... shaped an entire knife then when I etched I realized I didn’t do anything to bring the pattern out! 😂😂

[@tsukuyomi_7163]

Love the edits

[@pacemetalfab]

Subscribed !!! That's a fine piece sir !

[@elias2338]

Best hunting Knife in the World 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@PaulPinto]

thank you!!

[@Zogg1281]

Not shore about the handle but the blade scores at least 12 or 13 out of 10....... mabey more. It is a thing of beauty, in days of old it would have been considered an honours to be stabbed by it! There's probably people out there now who feel the same way, just not me. Well done good sire, your skills are improving on every build........ which means I have further to go to catch you...... who am I kidding, I'll never get to your level. I'll just watch and feel inspired 🙂

[@sacha1916]

Damn dude, you earned my subscription for sure. Awesome knife, would love to buy one..

[@tobapiggery2951]

Very nice
I hope it full tang

[@garagemonkeysan]

Wow, beautiful knife and video. Real artistry! Aloha! : )

[@PaulPinto]

Thank you!!

[@frankmadonna01]

Awesome

[@PaulPinto]

Thank you!

[@sam_lada]

Great job Paul! Keep up the good work 👍

[@PaulPinto]

Thank you!!

[@sirtblairjr]

Hey Paul , good job on the knife. I try like it very nice.. but you should've used more borax and then fold the metal instead of cutting? You won't lose material that way? Js. But, try he knife look wonderful especially if it's your first time making the Damascus knife? maybe try it folding sometimes?
Thank you for sharing with us your process. I like it.

[@jaybird426]

That was excellent bro .good job

[@PaulPinto]

Thanks man!

[@johnswoodworking9860]

Great F$&@ Video. My favorite so far. Super Knife!!!

[@PaulPinto]

I’m glad you liked it!! Thank you

[@bhageshsolanki8414]

[@austinhall3937]

[@yf9623]

*Good job bro... keep it up :) cheers*

[@subhakanta7]

Where did you learn carftmanship?

[@disguyjordan]

Nice! Been thinking about trying to make damascus knife.. what two metals did you use?

[@mikejeffers6371]

Did you put your touchmark on it?

[@gentlemanviking566]

Awesome work! Ever made Damascus in a coal forge? I’m trying but having issues. Any tips would be greatly appreciated

[@PaulPinto]

Sorry but I don’t have much experience with coal. I’m sure it can be done but I’m still new to making Damascus so I’m probably not the best person to ask haha

[@gentlemanviking566]

Well thanks for getting back to me :)

[@raptor8228x6]

[@thejuice8401]
