What did you think of this build? I ran out of time for the scabbard, but if you're going to be at Blade show in June, it will be complete for that. Come by and take a look!
@@TyrellKnifeworks it is amazing very cool idea, sometimes if it is just hand sketched in the beinggining it is difficult to follow, super approachable
That is the first time I've ever seen someone show how much steel you lose to scale, etc. That's bloody amazing how much waste there is! Appreciate those little things! Thank you.
Well consider that damascus forging make a lot of scales. This was a kind of tldamascudls that left even a lot more due to the many steps needed, also since he had do do more heat than "needed" (due to him having a relatively small forge) it led to even more scales.
@@andreacapani2170 the scale that came off during the last step from multiple heats is pretty inconsequential to the total volume of scale. The vast majority was from forging the Damascus itself, not from drawing out the sword.
If i would just see a picture of it, i would never believe the sword is handmade! Man, this is stunning and it was beyond my imagination of possible craftmanship. Congratulations!
That is a really cool mosaic pattern. The Damascus hilt pieces were a nice touch, although the pommel is a little small compared to other historical pieces but the shape is quite accurate. Overall I like it. Great job on this one.
Well 10:37 That's a clever way of surfacing something long. I need to keep this trick in mind for when I'll have one! 🤣 Epic pattern. On such a long blade too, real impressive! The star on the pommel nut is also sick. Congratulations!
As I've said on the past, I love the fact that you put the pattern formation during the steps during the build. It makes the whole process of watching what you do and the outcome so much better. So please never stop putting in that extra effort that makes the video so much more informational
Explaining the patterns and using diagrams on the side is very helpful. I can visualize what is actually going on rather than just seeing a bright yellow molten block of metal. Thank you, sir.
What an amazing piece of art! The mosaic pattern is incredible. You really outdid yourself this time Denis. And I can't believe how much steel is lost to scale. It's crazy. Long live the jackfruit!
your such an insparation, iam a young blacksmith(12 yrs) i love making knives, and you are soooooo good at it, thanks for awsome videos, i could not have became as good as i am without your videos😀😀😀😀😀😀. btw i liked my own comment XD
That is an INCREDIBLE pattern! Much respect for all the work that went into this build. I'm going to have to have you make one of these for me some day...
Quel magnifique travail, le Damas de la lame est splendide ! Super création c'est toujours un plaisir de vous regarder travaillé, bonne continuation à vous 👏
Absolutely epic!!! Thanks for all the fun and entertainment of these “challenges “ !!! Love watching everyone and what they come up with!!! Absolutely amazing stuff! Thanks Denis! 👊
When you have the right tools it makes everything that much better!!! Imagine Way back in the dark ages when there wasn't any electricity or power hammer's and grinder's???. And they still made awesome weapon's !!!
I am so in awe of what you can do with Damascus. You make it look so easy, but I have seen enough forging on UA-cam to have some indication of how much skill this requires. I hope you will have this sword at Blade Show Atlanta because it is even better in person.
Madness! Thats an incredible pattern. Thank you for the graphics so we can undestand better the process. I think there will be a tight duel between your sword and Black Beard's one.
wow, that came out nice! great job. The contrast between the blade and handle work matched awesome. Good luck! I almost feel sorry for your competition! I haven't seen their work yet, but it was awesome that you took the time to make sure everyone is known.
Those other boys made some cool stuff, but this was a whole 'nother level with the pattern Damascus. Watching some of those other power hammers making Goliath macaroni bananas had me in pain; I had to go back after all done watching all the other entrants and watch your video again to restore Order, Beauty, and Perfection to my Mind. Thank you for taking the trouble to do that. It strengthens my Faith in Humanity. Wow!
@@TyrellKnifeworks also before I forget you deserve a big ol congratulations 🎊. Hitting that retirement and being able to put more time into a craft you love has got to be an awesome feeling. I think I've got 25-30 more years left myself lol
I particularly like you explanation and graphic of the patterns you are trying to achieve. Funny while watching I was wondering how much steel you lose to scale and then you answered that. Thanks.
Beautiful damascus sword. Really enjoy your videos and watching your very quick progress over a short period. You have gift. One thing that I think would be great to know about these competition builds is the approximate cost in materials, abrasives and time? Seems to be a perspective that isn't often discussed for some reason.
This one is about $500 in materials. It's about $200 just in the steel, plus the gold, sharkskin, consumables like propane, electricity, abrasives, wax, oil, wood, etc. The biggest cost of course is the labor. At about 80 hours of labor or more (and that's not minimum wage labor), that's where the majority of the cost comes from. Thanks for watching.
Man. Amazing amazing work as always but this is really above and beyond. Those stackable heat treat kilns are a game changer. Whenever I can finally get one that's the route I'm gonna go
Wow! That damascus turned out amazing!! I never would have thought there would be so much waste just from the scale. At 15:45 I can see why Jerid would call it a gigantic wing nut 😂
God i really hope i can live my best life at your age like you do once i make it there, just happily pouring my time and energy into a passion i love! love to see it
Hi ya mate amazing knife plus I love these challenges.. Will you make a play list for the viewers entries please I wanna see what here like as I wanna enter next time.. many thanks joe

You’re a legend dude. Creative, great execution and spin on the prompt
I think you're an absolute madman. That was something else and definitely creeping into master smith territory.
The graphics really helped out for those ,me, that have limited mosaic know how but all that work ,Jesus. Well done

Man that's a ton of steel! Awesome Damascus work there! I'm loving the use of the SGA for the distal tapering.
It was hard because the sword is twice the length of my SGA so math was involved. 😉. Thanks for watching!

Great, amazing work!! The mosaic makes the blade look beautifully carved, as if ancient magic was cast on it.
Thank you very much! I tried to endow it with as much magic as possible! 😜
