- Forging a knife from a bunch of pieces of used band saw pieces. These are the blades I use in my wood bandsaw for cutting handle material.
The edge of the knife is 52100 high carbon steel, with nickel in-between the cladding and edge steel.

One thing that makes interesting videos is taking absolute crap like those belt grinder shavings and turning them into a master piece.
The desert ironwood handle is my favorite aspect.
Surely you've got to make a blade or two with all those grindings!
Great looking pattern, I could definitely put a blade like that to work at my BBQ SMOKER!
Love the Canadian tuxedo lol
Cool piece man, as I eyeball the stack of bandsaw blades in the corner…..😉
Make a blade from the shavings cool idea
I am commenting just to try and help out! I have nothing of note to say other than nice job! Thanks for sharing
Beauty! First one of your vids I’ve seen. Built my boy a forge a few years ago, he got into it a little, I want to start forging soon. He’s now in culinary classes, I’d like to get him one of these from you.
When you welded the bandsaw blades you blocked the ark of the welding with your hand a lot of people don't do that they don't realize that that light from the welding can still affect a person's eyes watching video God bless and have a blessed day
You could make a neat knife with the shavings from the bucket.
Nice looking kitchen knife
This knife is very cool. It would be a great add6to my kitchen.
Love the nickel coastline.
I have always loved your knife skills
Great video, thank you for sharing! I would love to see you do what I've heard referred to as "dinosaur/trashcan" Damascus
5:00 I only knew of the dragon's breath drug from Columbia, not the carbon.
7:18 You would be more comfortable if that power hammer sat a foot higher. You really bend over a lot to use it.
That nickel really gave a cool-looking pattern to a cool-looking knife.
Turned out beautiful
An exciting pattern in this blade.
I very much like watching you work your steel and knives. I once was a fairly serious knife maker, working with Devin Thomas quite a bit over the years. I finally burned clear out and closed my shop for almost a decade. Now I'm fully retired from my "career job" and am getting ready to jump back into knives. Watching channels like yours is really a big help, thanks so much for putting out great content!
Nice, thanks for watching!
I really enjoy your channel and watching your process. Upvoted, shared, commented (obviously), subscribed, bell rung and liked .... may the algorithm gods smile favorably upon your channel. 👍🏼👍🏿👍🏽👍🏾👍🏻
Came out pretty cool Brother!
Most bandsaw blades are 15N20. Made several billets from metal bandsaw blades and they worked great. Harden and hold an edge well!!!!
What I like about your channel is, you make it like I'm hanging out with a friend. Just BSing out back in the shop building.
Very good job my friend
another beautiful knife Elijha i love it Mark 😀👍👍✌
Thank you sir
Always like watching your vids
Nice knife!
Nice work 👍👍👍
Nice looking blade!!
Which steel is the most darkest when etching, and does coffee makes it even darker?
Great job, sir
Turned out great.
great looking knife!
That is a beautiful knife. I prefer those more random and dynamic patterns over the more controlled ones (stars, explosions, dobble us, twists..). 👍👍
I would like to see you make a knife out of the steel grindings that might be pretty cool and a way to reuse some of that metal
Can you make a blade out of those shavings? It be a nice project/ video to make in the near future
Very nice!!
Great video as always.
Offer still stands to teach you to Tig weld when you're ready.
Thanks man
Old lawn mower blades usually seem to be made of good steel. I go through a couple sets a year so it’s nice to have a second use for them.
A couple a year!? What are you mowing? Bedrock??
@@thomaslindroos1667 huge lawn, old farm site, probably 4+ acres of grass. Takes 3 hours to mow with a 54” deck at about 7-8 mph. They go dull fast so I sharpen about every other mowing to keep it cutting nice so I can go as fast as I do. They only last so long.
Mower blades are typically 1045. JD blades are 1080.
Nice, I will try to make a video or two on my knife making skills in The future
Dayum! That's a knife I'd be proud to use in my kitchen! That really turned out to be a unique and beautiful blade.
Nice build. A popular blade shape lately.
Excellent work. 👍👍
Thanks!!
Real nice Thanks
Good looking knife, A+ 💥💥💥💥💥
That nickel move really paid off. Great video, really loved the shape of the blade.
Beautiful
Beautiful!
Nice! I agree with your decision to use known steel for the core. I do suspect that eventually your grinder leavings are going to find their way into a canister with some 1084 powder . . . .
Thank you
We have a knife maker at our job and he claims that the bandsaw blades are m1. Our blades are for cutting aluminum. But I think it's the same stuff
What are all the flakes that come off when hammering? Is that metal, do you lose a lot of metal during the whole process?
Sweet , thx
Are the bucket shavings reusable?
You can tell that the forge was heating the material much hotter than before by the color. Looks like the forge is definitely working.
The pattern kinda looks like the Japanese islands. Really nice looking knife. 🤜🤛
Cool pattern, neat how you got little islands of the cladding.
That cladding turned out very cool. Reminds me of wrought iron in some ways. I also like how the nickel and cladding were spotted through the edge steel but not quite on the edge. I'm working on a hjartum style axe with 1045 body with 5160 edge.
🔥
Holy smokes! What an absolute art my friend, excellent work.
I really like the nickel foil. It really pops.
Nice blade width.
Wow! The pattern in the blade turned out amazing! As others said the contrast between the cladding and the nickel is gorgeous! Thanks again Elijah!
Fill your catch bucket with mineral oil or similar, something that isn't especially combustible. Then, when you've collected enough, make canister steel from your grindings.
ooh what a lovely blade , it goes beautifully with the ironwood grain too
Nice balance between the blade and handle.
That's a very good looking bunka for sure, depending on the supplier you can sometimes end up with some 15N20 in band saw blades or more rarely L6.
Thanks for sharing this with us 🙏
excellent work
Very nice
That turned out beautiful
Beautiful, and the commentary is, as always, very informative!
Nice knife
I tend to go high heat for welding it just adds a safety factor and you can see in the vid that your getting much higher temps with new forge , new blade too , my wife wants a matching set of kitchen knives and I think one like that one will make it into the set
I figured you accumulated grindings, but thats way more than I imagined. Thanks for showing that, interesting stuff.
Also the sound of the hammer hitting the steel sounded way softer than I remember, guess its that higher heat.
Im so happy you made this video. I have a bunch of sawmill bandsaw blades from work. Ive been tempted to use them. However i use them until they break. So im sure the steel has all kinds of cracks in it.
Beautifully done sir!
Wow, that came out really beautiful !
That came out fantastic !
Could you make a blade out of bandsaw blades and fish hooks?
I did this once to make damasteel. Turned out great these blades are great steel to use. And as always awesome work!
Excellent presentation. You're truly a gifted individual.
Vraiment magnifique.
Looks awesome!!
Mad skills. Thanks for sharing your knowledge 😊
Absolutely gorgeous. Fine work.
Beautiful work as always
Thanks!
such great work!! 😊
9:59- I've always wondered if that stuff could be used for Iron powder or smelted into an ingot of some kind.
You should do a canister damascus from the water bucket debris...... disregard, you already did that video lol.
Amazing job!
Like others have said, bandsaw blades are usually 15N20 and heat treat well. You can always test harden a chunk. Generally, if a piece is as thin as a bandsaw blade and has a good spring to it, it should heat treat fine. Nice work man!
all the lenox saw blades i have checked on our OES were around 1030 carbon steel..
❤🔥
That blade makes me want to clone a brontosaurus, just so I can butcher it.
::slow clap growing::
What in the welcome to jurrasic park fuck did i just read lmao
Great video as usual and love the way the nickel turned out too, one for a future project and a question
Fire Creek Forge:
Wouldn't it be that little bit easier if I used a mortice chisel for hidden tangs?
Beautiful knife 👍🏼 When do you stamp your knives during heat treating? And does it cause any warping? Thanks
I was wondering if you could make anything from the bucket of shavings after a grind or is the material not viable enough for making something. Stay safe.
Хорошая работа! Но использовано так много газа. Это дорого, у вас ведь кризис...
As always...great video. Could you show your new forge in detail? I'm about to build one myself and am curious about yours.
