That is reason, why pickaxes produced in my country has 10 times higher price. Just small little improvement by extremly precise heat threatment. Also final cure by burned oil instead that brown colour would make luxury look for customers. Here isnt unordinary to own 100 years old pickaxe with highest quality possible. Just extremly luxury threated steel and wood could be sold for 100 dollars here :D Also that plastic bag on the end making look of cheap trash.
Nahh even when left soft like this, they will still take a beating and hold up decently well. In the medieval period a lot of stonework tools were poor quality, yet the cathedrals were built (and the pyramids were made with copper tools, bronze wasnt a thing yet)
Маляр самый козырный у них, у него даже переносной верстак есть 16:12 😂 Он наверное художник в душе, руками работает, без кисти, чтобы лучше чувствовать как краска ложится. 😂 Не удивлюсь, если он свинцовым суриком эти кирки мажет. А кузнец наблатыканный, он наверное наравне с роботом по скорости обработки может соревноваться. Там наверное разбег по сечениям и линейным размерам миллиметра 2-3 максимум.
I enjoy theses videos as it never ceases to amaze me the level if ingenuity that they show. At the same time, I can't help but be appalled at the working conditions: elevate your work and get off the ground, clean up the scrap so you don't have tripping hazards everywhere....... simple things that make life easier
Well, the issue is that they're probably paid per product. Worse is that if one of them does get hurt. There plenty of warm bodies to take their place.
P.P.E. - gardening gloves and flip-flops. Lifting gear - bearded grandfather. Safe working practices- throwing white hot billets around. I want to cry.
I was talking to an engineer from a major container crane manufacturer (about defects) and he admitted that on an average, 3 men died on each crane built. One of our engineers brought back a chinese hard hat. It was made of bamboo twigs and looked like an 1800s English pith helmet. It had braided nylon rope for a headband. And this is supposedly in an advanced country. Life is cheap in Asia.
I'm surprised they can get a steady supply of oxygen & acetylene cylinders. The hearing loss of those workers must be terrible. It also seems to me that if they weighed the blanks the old man cut before the forging, they could eliminate a lot of the wasted effort of making units that don't pass the weight check.
no taxes, no welfare, no social security , no medicare, no must have outrageous cost medical insurance, no retirment unless you worked for a major company.you work as long as you are able to and enjoy it.and no damn age discrimination like USA
14:29 i like how when he walks over the pick axes, he has his safety sandals on 🩴 ⛏️ they’re great to prevent injuries. also the sandals 👡 are good to prevent hot metal from burning the toes 🦶
To watch a team of master iron workers is awesome, great craftsmanship is hard to come by and is something that is earned, probably after crafting these tools for over 40 - 50 odd years, the primary old man begins the process and is then the final quality control - earning him the heading of making the tool - they all make them. Great video
Love to see these guys on Forged in Fire.....Could you turn off the fans,we're not used to such a cool forge.OK I'm through...but there's an hour left.
The old guy is also the only one with a chair. It gets passed on down the generations. That is why the legs are short and there is a fart hole rusted right through.....
Every step starts and ends on the floor. They work so fast, but waste a lot of time because someone needs to collect the stuff again and again. Even after putting it in a plastic bag it's put on the floor again so the next guy needs to pick it up and put it in a box or whatever happens next.
Interesting video, thank you. During the Gulf War and again in Iraq in 2003-04 my unit bought some of these from local suppliers and we got some pick axes exactly like these. We needed them because our vehicles only carried one pick axe and we had 3-4 men per vehicle. The desert floor is almost hard as concrete so about 6 inches down, you have to use a pick to go deeper but, unlike our American made pick axes, the local ones bent like a wet noodle, they weren’t heat treated so they were too soft unlike ours so they were worthless. I suppose these are fine in other types of soil but definitely not for the desert.
Totally, there was no heat treatment step. Seems like the could have done that for not much more effort and make a superior product. They did all the same stuff as any high quality forged pickaxe would be except the not that expensive to do heat treatment. Seems a poor business decision. But guess they determined it’ll sell anyway and make a few more $
I would suspect that whoever contracted for these tools (maybe government or military or an exporter) wrote a specification for the size tool they wanted. I noted that all the keepers weighed around 1.65kg, which is a reasonable weight for pickaxe head. Pickaxes seem to be sold by head weight, and it's quite possible this workshop was awarded a contract for a certain number of that sized pickaxes. I would further suspect that the underweight tools will "disappear" under cover of darkness and be sold off locally or to another (or even the same!) exporter as seconds. Standard weight is a good thing for end consumers, so you can judge what sized tool you need for your job. And also good for importers who are paying a $1.80 each in quantity. They don't want the hassle of unloading a container full or odd sized odd weighted tools!
The two operators on the pneumatic hammer are a good example of how to work with each other as a team should be. Have anyone else noticed how much the engineers use acetylene in all instances of cutting rather then using plasma or mechanical saws? I bet the guy who owns the company that makes the acetylene is very wealthy!
Очень слаженная работа... Настоящие "труженики". بہت اچھی طرح سے مربوط کام۔.. حقیقی "سخت کارکن" ۔ . बहुत अच्छी तरह से समन्वित काम।.. असली "कठिन कार्यकर्ता" । . Very well-coordinated work... Real "hard workers".
IMPRESIONANTE, Estos tipos en condiciones sumamente precarias hacen maravillas. Que bueno que la industrialización no ha llegado por completo a esta área, me parece que debe ser de la India o de Pakistán. Se emplea mucha mano de obra. Creo que necesitamos aprender mucho de estos trabajadores.
@@maplebones Why? (I' asking as a metallurgical engineer). I just simplified the name. Hot working by forging in this temperature with subsequent free cooling in air on such a low carbon steel will result in ferritic structure with poor hardness, decarburization of surface, and also the grain size would be pretty bad (with segregation also). Mechanical properties will be like annealed, or worse.
Plant layout and material handling is a major subject in production engineering. This concept is probably not there in Pakistan. Zero safety practices as rusted, hot metal is thrown all over the floor, plastic sandals what not....Also didn't understand as why that guy is using clothe to paint the product? he can simply dip them in one shot and save time. Another point is they must weigh the material before making the product but they start with random piece of old iron
Probably using a piece of cloth enable to use just right amount of paint - in order to impregnate metal from corrosion and get it DRY quicker then dipping in a paint.

Very nice forging. But without heat treatment they wont last more than 2 minutes..
maybe that's the point - to keep producing?

We are glimpsing into history. Not long ago, industry looked like this in Murica and Brittun... We just had more kids manning the machines.
This wasn't an "old man" making pickaxes, all the old man did was cut up pieces of steel so others could forge the tool. I still like the video.

What happens to the ones that don't have the correct weight? How do u fix them? Why do the have to be weighted in the 1st place?
I thought the same
