    I've done this with the last few knives ive made. It's a great way to know for sure that the heat treat worked. Thank you for sharing all of the tips.

    You are awesome mate, I want to be able to forge chef knives. You should do a video on that.

    thanks for this tip, much appreciated! does the tube have to be brass, or would copper work as well?

      Paul Wernich I've done it with a hard wood. Brass just lasts longer. Copper should work too but may deform after a while

    Hey love your channel, just wondering what the next steps would be if your edge bends or chips. Can you grind the edge again and simply re temper . or is a full quench required ?

      if it is too hard simply temper again at a higher temperature until it flexes. If it bends a re harden may be in order. Thanks for watching

    Great info, thanks. Did you do this on your blade for your JS ABS testing?

    Where do you get all your knife making supplies from? Great video as usual!

    • @StuartSmithHandForgedKNives

      From a variety of places. Some knife specific things I get from one of several local knife maker supply shops. Consumables from various places . It's hard to say.

    Can you post a video where you perform that test and it fails? I’m curious as to what that looks like.
