- You can forge a knife from a pipe wrench! Custom survival style Knife from a wrench I found in a dumpster. I hate waste, so it was really satisfying to reuse something that was thrown away. I show all the aspects of forging a knife, grinding, heat treating, parkerizing. Thank you for taking the time to watch this, it truly is a blessing to share this with you.
If you still have your industrial sewing machine it would be neat to see a matching sheath. Maybe gnarly, distressed leather. I guess it wouldn't match the "forge" theme of your channel but it'd be really cool.
I still have my sewing machine, and that is a excellent idea.
Bravo, bravo, awesome idea, super product, respectfull from old BG.
Thank you for watching!
Sehr cool Arbeits Messer ohne grossen schnick schnack gute qwalität guter Griff Rutsch fest und fast unzerstörbar top gute Arbeit Respekt weitwr so 👌👌👌
Thanks for watching and commenting!
i like that handle
It came out great, and very functional. I love the look of truncated threads!
Glad the serrations on the jaw didn't cause any cold shuts! That would worry me. Love the Parkerized finish; haven't tried that one yet, but I have an old pipe wrench in my shop just begging to be turned into a useful knife. Thanks!
I had the same concern! Great minds think alike. I did use some anhydrous borax on the blade section when getting up to temp. I tried to get it flat before drawing it out. Thanks for the comment Bryson, hope you are doing well.
What is a cold shut? I don't make knives
@@johncuervo3019 A cold shut is when two surfaces do not fuse together, either from too low a temperature, or from scale forming in between the two surfaces. Serrations sometimes fold over on each other , and if there is scale on them it will not fuse together. It is then a delamination within the blade.
Just watched this again, and now I know what I'll be doing in my forge today! If I can find my old pipe wrench. Appreciate your comment about using flux on the jaw, I will definitely do that.@@sigmaforge6232
Cooooooool!
Thank you
Outstanding sir
Many thanks
What type of quench oil did you use for this!? I was thinking of trying one!?
Parks 50, this came out razor sharp. I quenched after non magnetic for a minute. Then tempered at 375 for one hour. Parks 50 is a little expensive, but works well on steels that require a fast quench. This steel is probably around 1075 or so, so Canola oil would probably work too. It takes just a little experimentation with the quench and temper to get a nice usable blade. And this steel takes parkerizing really well. Thanks for the comment.
Nice hands.
Okay, they will let anyone comment on here.
Apparently.
No ragrets.

Sir, why are you doing some work (6:06-7:22) in an unsafe manner? Please remember that safety is very important in any work. We have to be conscious to be good example in our good work ethics. Sorry for this comment. I hope that my comment helps and serves as a reminder for everyone. Thanks.
Thank you Alma, you are right, we should strive to be safer.
I want one
Large, medium, or small? :)
@@sigmaforge6232 medium I suppose, like one I could carry on my belt at work or out and about.
@@sigmaforge6232you got a website or anywhere I can buy one?

I have sold one so far, the pipe wrench makes a really tough knife. Thank you for commenting!
