I have been watching this video every so often for 6 years now since I was a kid, now have a workshop of my own, and now I FINALLY understand how he made the blade pull back in! A frikin’ geneva reciprocation mechanism! Or in less nerdy words, a simple back and forth mechanism with a rotating circle pushing and pulling on a pivot point on the blade, like the metal bar thing on the side of a trains wheels!
See i understand how it goes out and back in, but i don’t get how the spring system works, like how does that small movement shoot it out, i can’t figure out how the springs move from the vid Could you explain it to me?
The wheel pulls that middle plate with the springs forward until the little side flap is pushed down which then causes the whole blade part to get flung forward and then lock in place on the other flag
+Nikolaj Lepka double action as in he doesn't need to flick the hidden blade out or push it back in. He has to springs, one that pulls it out and another that pulls it back in.
+Nikolaj Lepka Look up imdeepainreborn, he has really cool hidden blade designs, i love the mechanics and the satisfying spring action on them. I was hoping colin would 1up him, but imdeepain's remains my favorite so far.
only thing i saw him not wearing that he should have been was safety glasses of some kind... skipping gloves with tools that spin/move is pretty normal, he had a hood and gloves on while welding etc... what more do ya want? (besides safety glasses yeah those be important)
Amazing. This has got to be the best hidden blade on UA-cam. The thing that most people tend to ignore which really brings my piss to a boil is how not only does it have to come out but also retract "at the flick of the wrist". There are so many ones people have made that you just have to manually shove back in. Lame
Actually, this system is better than the game's. In the game, you would have to push your arm down to impulse the blade to go out, and then flick your wrist to retract it. This blade is double action like an OTF knife, you don't need any struggle for the blade to come out.
@Miguel Cervantes people can be religious. You don't need to start an argument because someone mentioned God. There nothing wrong with that. Go to church
+Messiman28 Ammnra didn't likely invent this, too. It's much more likely someone came up with a basic design and lots of lots of people added their own ideas to it until something like that resulted. I have no doubt that this design is going to be improved soon, too.
I can suggest you an awesome explanation video from another youtuber. It may not be the exact design that colin did, but it uses the same mechanism: /watch?v=umkIfWPbCtk
It's actually a really old design. Someone came up with that idea around the time ACR was coming out I think I forget what it was called but it started with an A it was like an am(some other letters) device
brandonse167 okay man.... but still ... i tried to figure it out myself without looking at any of those blue prints.. and i was wondering about putting an Arduino controller inside that instead of making it work mechanically xD but still man, no matter how simple this thing is.. it still fascinates me just looking at how this idea works which is really simple after you look at it but really hard to figure out by yourself .. IDK maybe im the only one who thinks like that man but, still i have a huge respect for them who came up with this idea of that mechanism :D Peace ^-^

Yeah dude, I really want to know how he made it. He is the only person I ever ser who managed to make a hidden Blade that can pop out and then retracts back Just with the hand movement, it's actually almost a perfect representation of the one in the game
I watched it a few times now and i understood his mechinism. That thing he cant show us is also hold in place by those little spring things on the side. And since its not the full size of the hidden blade its able to get locked and chamber some force. Very good design
It’s great to see that one of my favorite game franchises has a Rediculous weapon that can be Built , albeit with modern tools but when you play the game and know that it’s possible , makes playing AC even cooler.
I would love it even more if you could put in the description more details on all the metals you use n the measurements ... also explain in more details on what to do .... I would love to make one but a little confused on how 😊
Meme G I figured it out relatively fine. If you got to Lowes/home depot they have a section in building materials that has various widths of metal strips. I've found all the pieces I need that are the same relative width to each other as Colin's. Just go off the shot at the beginning where he stacks all the pieces together
I find it highly ridiculous that Ubisoft is attempting to hide the actual designs of this device in an attempt to shelter people from "danger". If anyone is curious about what may have been "left out", the actual mechanism used is nearly identical to the toy auto-retracting/ejecting version and there is also an excellent video online of a kid demonstrating exactly how to built it out of cardboard. Censorship is disgusting especially coming from someone who demonstrates how to build jet engines from trash. Please Colin, don't trade respect for cash. Edit: Video author name is Imdeepainreborn and as much as it pains me to say it, his design is arguable better than Colins.
+rydude998 Hi there the reasons this is different from the Imdeepainreborn video and why I've "left out" bits is this is metal and IS a serious piece of kit, the wood and plastic ones the kid made are fantastic but not deadly. As for the design yes they are very simlar (just adaptions of OTF mechs) however with using metal things need to be more robust etc.
colinfurze Perfectly reasonable buts its fair to assume that someone with the tools and materials can easily recreate the wood/cardboard versions in metal. I'm not advocating for the creation of dangerous weapons for malicious intent but as a creator and maker I can't help but feel a tad jipped in this idea of sheltering. There are far worse things that be built following directions on UA-cam. Regardless, brilliant machining, came out great, and theres other videos where people can learn how to build it. Really appreciate you responding, its nice to see some content creators still reading their comments.
+colinfurze none of that matters. so what if it can hurt some one. if they really wanted to hurt some one they could just use a regular knife, or better yet - a gun. you know the thing that with the press of a button (trigger is a button) - can kill some one. i can literally find how to make a gun here on youtube. i can buy an ar15 lower reciever and mill it, and craft a gun, without ever needing to register the weapon. and i can learn it all here on youtube. i can learn how to make a ballistic knife - kind of the same thing as this except when the knife springs out - it fires like a projectile. person doesnt see it coming. way worse than an attached blade that simply can be revealed and hidden easier than any ordinary flick release knife. people want to know for cosplay purposes. if some one is going to use this for malicious intent - your censoring of the mechanism for this device is not going to stop them. it literally makes no difference except keeping a neat design from AC cosplay enthusiasts. while simpler in design, there are other people here that show how to make a working hidden blade. so all in all - your reasons are null. - also how many people do you think have access to these machines on a regular basis? how many of those people are AC fans? how many even know what AC, or a hidden blade is? you literally censored a neat bit of mechanics, for reasons that dont apply
+colinfurze Are you aware that he fully explain how to make it ? If someone want to make one on his own he just have to trade cardboard for wood or metal, put a blade on it and bam the toy become deadly. You can't stop people from doing stupid stuff BTW if someone want to stab anoher person, this person will certainly use a knife from his very own kitchen and not waste his psycho times on building one of these.
He's used the wheel similar to a train's driving wheel, where a half-turn drives it one way, and the next half turn drives it the other. The wire is not directly connected to the wheel, but is instead allowed to move freely one way, the way back. When he pulls it, it catches and turns the wheel halfway. When he releases, it slides back into the notch on the other side, ready to repeat the process.
@@jacobgrady6771 I understand how the wire fits into the wheel, but I don't understand how the wheel interacts with the blade to cause it to extend / retract and lock in place.
@@asingularcheesepuff6383 Picture once again the train's big wheel. There is a point on the wheel which the bar attaches to. That point goes full circle, but it also moves in two dimensions, forward and backward, and up and down. The bar on the wheel moves full circle, but it only translates the motion of one dimension, forward and backward. Similarly, when Colin here places the wheel in the hole, you can see that the piece underneath has a slot in it. The screw he places through the wheel interacts with this slot, moving the driver of the mechanism forward and backwards every half turn. The screw travels in two dimensions, but since it interacts with a slot, it cannot drive the driver along the dimension the slot is cut, it has no purchase! Therefore, it only drives the driver in one dimension, and since the slot is cut on the left-right dimension, the forward-backward dimension is the only one left to affect. The driver uses the classic otf mechanism. He left this part out so you couldn;t understand it just from his video, but it is fairly easy to understand. The two-block bit he welded and attached to the spring with screws attach to the driver with JUST the screw. Lets call these the throwers. The throwers sit on the driver whilst nothing is moving, with no tension on the blade. When the driver moves forward, the thrower in the back stays in place, because the neoprene-sprung catch has not been opened yet. This puts spring tension on the thrower, and by extension the blade. When the wheel reaches the full half-turn though the driver is in its final position, whose angled slot opens the neoprene-sprung catch. The spring tension on the blade causes it to spring forward, and out of the device. Here, I'm not sure if the other thrower is what stops it coming out fully, or another metal piece, but that is irrelevant to the actual mechanism. The blade is kept out by the catch, but no spring tension is present. The process is repeated, not reversed, for the retraction. Another thrower and catch, but the driver moves the other way to trigger them. In reality, the blade is carried by nothing but momentum when it springs out, which means you could stop it halfway, but this is easy to fix.
Yooooooooooooo I made it finally it took me two yrs which was super hard and I used a lot of money nearly 2000 $ and a lot of machines finally I did it
Atcha Even longer possibly. The measuring work takes lots of time. I make wooden stuff sometimes. it takes like five hours to make a chair while I want it to be perfect. As this hiden blade having this many parts, three hours is super fast.
I usually buy battens which are already standard sizes so I dont need to make the parts of the chairs from a piece of wood. All I need to do is cut the "correct" length of every parts then combine them into one thing. However, it still takes time especially the polish work after.
Henry N that's a pretty smart idea. And I bet the polishing takes about 30 minutes to an hour? Because I met this guy in upstate New York and his amazing quality chair took at least 48 hours which is insane! Also do you have an assortment of wood or just one type?
First video I’ve seen of this guy and I’m super impressed. Unlike other channels where they make things like this, he gets right into what he’s trying to complete in the video and it was very entertaining. You earned a sub!
thats what i thought so i tried to make one then realised i live in england so i cant buy a double action otf blade so i need to make one... i cant find springs which are the right size. life sucks
Its based off the Switch blade - here is the Ultra tech - www.bladehq.com/cat--Ultratech-OTF-Series--268 Modify it or take it apart and rebuild your own.
This guy is the best engineer I've ever seen I wish I had that bunker in my garden I wonder if anyone asks him to make props for movies if they don't they should.
I remember when I first saw this 5 years ago and watched it over and over and over again to figure out how it actually functions. 5 years on and I still don't have a f-ing clue
I think this is my favorite FUZE video. I keep coming back to this video. I still don't fully understand how the mechanism works. Which is awesome. To get so much movement from so little without strain. AND do the same movement again for it to do the opposite its... Incredible well done sir
heh, I watched this twice - I see youve got 2 springs in there and 2 latch thingies... but still cant work out how it retracts on a second pull :P does it work every time?
it has the plate which moves back and forth when the wheel spins. the springs are attached to the plate and when it slides backwards tension increases in the spring in the front, blade is released by the flip-thing in the back and the blade comes out. and same vice versa. i think those kind of knives are called switchblades so you might want to google it.
It would only work on the edges and not the point, make it harder to sheath, along with eventually widdling the blade smaller and smaller until it doesn't even sharpen the sides anymore.
Heyy Colin I really hope u read this, I've started metal work this year for year 8 and we are making a tool box, I've finished while everyone is still making the handle of it so the teacher said I can make what ever so could u please send me the dimentions for the pieces and some blue prints for it hopefully before tomorrow or before 7 week
Damn, this was always a childhood dream of mine to engineer an assassins creed blade but I thought it was impossible to do in that size, this guy is a genius.
@@aulus4197 an otf knife is not universally illegal, and in most countries where they are illegal as long as you can prove it is unsharpened and for show or collection purposes then it is alright, just like having a gun or sword collection license in certain countries
When I was a young man, I had liberty, but I did not see it. I had time, but I did not know it. And I had love, but I did not feel it. Many decades would pass before I understood the meaning of all three. And now, the twilight of my life, this understanding has passed into contentment. Love, liberty, and time: once so disposable, are the fuels that drive me forward. And love, most especially, mio caro. For you, our children, our brothers and sisters. And for the vast and wonderful world that gave us life, and keeps us guessing. Endless affection, mia Sofia. "Forever yours, Ezio Auditore."

I have been watching this video every so often for 6 years now since I was a kid, now have a workshop of my own, and now I FINALLY understand how he made the blade pull back in!

Or in less nerdy words, a simple back and forth mechanism with a rotating circle pushing and pulling on a pivot point on the blade, like the metal bar thing on the side of a trains wheels!
I now highly respect you
Yooo if you can upload some blueprints to make it also is there any way i can pay to use machines on a shop or something to do these things

Could you explain it to me?
Not Geneva, but scotch yoke.
The wheel pulls that middle plate with the springs forward until the little side flap is pushed down which then causes the whole blade part to get flung forward and then lock in place on the other flag

+colinfurze none of that matters. so what if it can hurt some one. if they really wanted to hurt some one they could just use a regular knife, or better yet - a gun. you know the thing that with the press of a button (trigger is a button) - can kill some one. i can literally find how to make a gun here on youtube. i can buy an ar15 lower reciever and mill it, and craft a gun, without ever needing to register the weapon. and i can learn it all here on youtube. i can learn how to make a ballistic knife - kind of the same thing as this except when the knife springs out - it fires like a projectile. person doesnt see it coming. way worse than an attached blade that simply can be revealed and hidden easier than any ordinary flick release knife. people want to know for cosplay purposes. if some one is going to use this for malicious intent - your censoring of the mechanism for this device is not going to stop them. it literally makes no difference except keeping a neat design from AC cosplay enthusiasts. while simpler in design, there are other people here that show how to make a working hidden blade. so all in all - your reasons are null. - also how many people do you think have access to these machines on a regular basis? how many of those people are AC fans? how many even know what AC, or a hidden blade is? you literally censored a neat bit of mechanics, for reasons that dont apply
+Ambrosius Malachai (AMV GOD) He is sponsored on this by ubisoft and ubisoft doesnt want lawsuits
+colinfurze Are you aware that he fully explain how to make it ? If someone want to make one on his own he just have to trade cardboard for wood or metal, put a blade on it and bam the toy become deadly.
You can't stop people from doing stupid stuff BTW if someone want to stab anoher person, this person will certainly use a knife from his very own kitchen and not waste his psycho times on building one of these.
4:17 and pause it it made me die 😂

I am still contemplating whether he is crazy or brilliant
The Handsome Swordsman both my friend both...
It's a very thin line that separates the two...and he's standing right smack dab in the middle of it.
He seems like it to people who can only rationalize the creationist idealism of religion.
He has a creative mind but he gets much happiness when he compltes or do something that is why he looks crazy
Definitely brilliant
0:19 that was so HowToBasic lol
yes
Ha ha ha...
It was XD
Yha xD
+P A X X no how to basics is that stupid UA-cam channel that does random shit and thinks it's funny 😐
Loved the bunker was one of my favourite videos. keep doing what you do.
There should be some sort of safety mechanism because you don't want it to accidentally extend while you're leaning on a wall or something.
making the cord have to clip/clasp onto the ring would be an easy way to deactivate it while also wearing both components
That is real hidden blade I never see anyone create the really hidden blade like you, but you're so cool very very cool
Are you 7 years old?
@@AlexisAlexander646 No, hbu?
Hans der Hundemann I wasn’t talking to you..
I can't understand how you're able to make it both extend and retract with one motion. Amazing build though, it looks fantastic!
He's used the wheel similar to a train's driving wheel, where a half-turn drives it one way, and the next half turn drives it the other. The wire is not directly connected to the wheel, but is instead allowed to move freely one way, the way back. When he pulls it, it catches and turns the wheel halfway. When he releases, it slides back into the notch on the other side, ready to repeat the process.
@@jacobgrady6771 I understand how the wire fits into the wheel, but I don't understand how the wheel interacts with the blade to cause it to extend / retract and lock in place.
@@asingularcheesepuff6383 Picture once again the train's big wheel. There is a point on the wheel which the bar attaches to. That point goes full circle, but it also moves in two dimensions, forward and backward, and up and down. The bar on the wheel moves full circle, but it only translates the motion of one dimension, forward and backward. Similarly, when Colin here places the wheel in the hole, you can see that the piece underneath has a slot in it. The screw he places through the wheel interacts with this slot, moving the driver of the mechanism forward and backwards every half turn. The screw travels in two dimensions, but since it interacts with a slot, it cannot drive the driver along the dimension the slot is cut, it has no purchase! Therefore, it only drives the driver in one dimension, and since the slot is cut on the left-right dimension, the forward-backward dimension is the only one left to affect. The driver uses the classic otf mechanism. He left this part out so you couldn;t understand it just from his video, but it is fairly easy to understand. The two-block bit he welded and attached to the spring with screws attach to the driver with JUST the screw. Lets call these the throwers. The throwers sit on the driver whilst nothing is moving, with no tension on the blade. When the driver moves forward, the thrower in the back stays in place, because the neoprene-sprung catch has not been opened yet. This puts spring tension on the thrower, and by extension the blade. When the wheel reaches the full half-turn though the driver is in its final position, whose angled slot opens the neoprene-sprung catch. The spring tension on the blade causes it to spring forward, and out of the device. Here, I'm not sure if the other thrower is what stops it coming out fully, or another metal piece, but that is irrelevant to the actual mechanism. The blade is kept out by the catch, but no spring tension is present. The process is repeated, not reversed, for the retraction. Another thrower and catch, but the driver moves the other way to trigger them. In reality, the blade is carried by nothing but momentum when it springs out, which means you could stop it halfway, but this is easy to fix.
@@jacobgrady6771 Ahh, I get it now. Thanks for taking the time to explain it!
@@asingularcheesepuff6383 No problem! Hope this helped clear up the mechanism for any of the readers of comments in four year old videos.
this is probably the best real life hidden blade in the world, this thing is sellable for collectors
This entire channel is a Home Depot ad.
I love it
Yooooooooooooo I made it finally it took me two yrs which was super hard and I used a lot of money nearly 2000 $ and a lot of machines finally I did it
🤔 Seems legit
Ye
r/thathappened
Well done
bro just Tell me how to do
Finally yt recommended me something I love, just discovered this channel love it yes yes yes
I actually own a hidden blade myself Whenever I wear it and flick the blade out I'm worried about my ring finger getting cutt off 😲
How'd you get one!?
then you're atleast like Alaïr xD
So you're bayek
Boruto Plays oh yeah bayek
Lol cut it off show you're loyalty
Jesus your taste in music is amazing.
Its ok I kinda wish it was mettalica, rhcp, soad or something like that.
Oh man, this is awesome dude!! But *please* don't hurt yourself.
Toolify there’s a video where he burns himself badly
This dude reminds me of the smart inventor in the movies who's talks and acts crazy, but knows 100% of what there doing 😂 👏🏼 props to him
imagine an uncut video each video would be like 3 hours long
Atcha Even longer possibly. The measuring work takes lots of time. I make wooden stuff sometimes. it takes like five hours to make a chair while I want it to be perfect. As this hiden blade having this many parts, three hours is super fast.
Henry N how do you make a chair in 5 hours! That's super quick!
I usually buy battens which are already standard sizes so I dont need to make the parts of the chairs from a piece of wood. All I need to do is cut the "correct" length of every parts then combine them into one thing. However, it still takes time especially the polish work after.
Henry N that's a pretty smart idea. And I bet the polishing takes about 30 minutes to an hour? Because I met this guy in upstate New York and his amazing quality chair took at least 48 hours which is insane! Also do you have an assortment of wood or just one type?
I buy cheap wooden battens to make stuff. I dont even know what kind of wood they are. My work dosent have good design but tough and stable.
First video I’ve seen of this guy and I’m super impressed. Unlike other channels where they make things like this, he gets right into what he’s trying to complete in the video and it was very entertaining. You earned a sub!
Always thought it was funny that people had a hard time replicating the hidden blade when it's literally a wrist mounted switch blade.
thats what i thought so i tried to make one then realised i live in england so i cant buy a double action otf blade so i need to make one... i cant find springs which are the right size. life sucks
You're literally the king of engineering!!!
he should just show the 2 things he made then he will be engineer without any exams 🤣🤣
How could people dislike you're vids
because he did not tell us how everything works just like what happens every other vid
Halodevils never said it was ever a tutorial
IT'S YOUR NOT YOU'RE
Dimhouse Productions it's the templar
People are jealous!
Like me....
I did not dislike the video though
I've watched this video at least 10 times over the years and I still have no idea how that thing works
I had to watch this 45 times to get the whole system down
Iron Titan you actually made it?
max godby not yet, but I understand how it works
Iron Titan u watched it 45 Times? and the matirial were Steel and messing, the golden collered.iren is messing
Iron Titan do u know how the double spring mechanism works??
I still don't understand
Finally! A way a cut my wrists outside of home! Thank you!
Some people are so retarded, this is a joke
Its Theft I cringed
max godby Do I care?
max godby Do I care?
Its Theft obviously you do because you took your time to facking comment
how much would it cost for you to make me one?
I dont think he does make them for people, if he did id have a set already lmao
DMAMDNAN IAENW EI NQN DNQ :o
o ;-;
o ok
no :^)
Ive seen a lot of hidden blade making videos on youtube and yours is the best one. Not "so far", but "the" best.
Would it be possible to purchase one of these from you?
just that , where too buy? xD
Right
it would depend on where you live because technically this is an otf knife and it's illegal in many places.
u could get them in youre gamestop if lucky
Its based off the Switch blade - here is the Ultra tech - www.bladehq.com/cat--Ultratech-OTF-Series--268
Modify it or take it apart and rebuild your own.
Please don`t wear a tie when you use bandsaw, pedestal drill or lathe.
He taped his tie down, so reduced risk.
It's a safety tie, he wears it for safety.
He tapes it down to his shirt so its not in the way
This guy is the best engineer I've ever seen I wish I had that bunker in my garden I wonder if anyone asks him to make props for movies if they don't they should.
they should and it would be cool and more realistic but they like more pretty things you know like ones that wouldnt function but look nice
0:05
Imagine if he accidentally cut himself with that knife.(be careful plz)
Knife is dumb
@@АльфаЦеркумфлекс ohh god...🤦♂️
Not sure who is dumb here
@@bigbootyenjoyer yes
He cut himself with a knife _belt_
0:35 not gonna lie that was impressive
anyone here in 2024? or am I alone here
Noo broo
Your not alone
🎉
No man
Had to show the gf the classics
Good bro it’s actually really work 😅I am trying this for 6years I must watch your video 6years ago
Did anyone else cringe at 5:53 when his unprotected thumb was 2mm away from the band-saw blade?
He's a British plumber...
DoomFinger511 It only gets unsafe when it's 0 mm away.
DoomFinger511 lol no
It was probably the perspective of the camera
Safety tie.
I remember when I first saw this 5 years ago and watched it over and over and over again to figure out how it actually functions. 5 years on and I still don't have a f-ing clue
its a double action otf blade with a Geneva reciprocating mechanism on top. cable reciprocates it
I've wanted one if these since I was a little kid watching my dad N play the early games
I think this is my favorite FUZE video. I keep coming back to this video. I still don't fully understand how the mechanism works. Which is awesome. To get so much movement from so little without strain. AND do the same movement again for it to do the opposite its... Incredible well done sir
heh, I watched this twice - I see youve got 2 springs in there and 2 latch thingies... but still cant work out how it retracts on a second pull :P
does it work every time?
+wacka Same! it just confuses me intensely when considering potential energies :\
+wacka pause at 4:38 maybe that helps. Its like a hammer system.
Wouter Nieuwenhuijzen thanks.. I think I actually get it now :)
it has the plate which moves back and forth when the wheel spins. the springs are attached to the plate and when it slides backwards tension increases in the spring in the front, blade is released by the flip-thing in the back and the blade comes out. and same vice versa. i think those kind of knives are called switchblades so you might want to google it.
+wacka it took me about half an hour, watching that other video and this back and forth to really get it :P
impressive work, mr. furze!
Imagine that the vid would be over at: 0:05
So there is no way i can order this, this looks so cool
Honestly I hate doing hands on stuff like this, but watching other people doing it I absolutely love it
I love the edgy music then you get Colin’s “ta da”
6:21
You should make it so when the blade goes back in and get sharper every time
Love the videos
It would only work on the edges and not the point, make it harder to sheath, along with eventually widdling the blade smaller and smaller until it doesn't even sharpen the sides anymore.
Heyy Colin I really hope u read this, I've started metal work this year for year 8 and we are making a tool box, I've finished while everyone is still making the handle of it so the teacher said I can make what ever so could u please send me the dimentions for the pieces and some blue prints for it hopefully before tomorrow or before 7 week
lol how was the project
Oliver lmao for school?
1: did you make it, 2: was it successful if you did, 3: if it was successful, I'd love the plans/blueprints.
You picked a good trade to start my friend you have that tool box for the rest of your life I still do
Damn, this was always a childhood dream of mine to engineer an assassins creed blade but I thought it was impossible to do in that size, this guy is a genius.
well im never gonna get in a fight with this guy
anyone else thinks he looks and sounds like Shaun Hastings? he could play him in a fanfilm!
Looks like Shaun, but his accent is different.
And unlike Colin, Shaun is a douchebag.
What really would have made this even more awesome, is if you had forged the blade yourself.
+The Blender Arsenal watch man at arms... on youtube....
+jullinn1 I already have. I just thought it would be cool to see Colin do what they do.
He purposefully didn't add that clip, read the description for more info.
+Adam Udale makes sense.
+Adam Udale he is actually a plumber but, whatever floats youre boat
Not sure if he is a professor but he definitely should be. I wish I had Professors like him in engineering school. So entertaining and passionate.
Wish I could have one
XxV1p3rXToxicxX try and make one
how does the spring system work???
trying to bild my own
@@aulus4197 an otf knife is not universally illegal, and in most countries where they are illegal as long as you can prove it is unsharpened and for show or collection purposes then it is alright, just like having a gun or sword collection license in certain countries
@@aulus4197 in short, screw you
@@aulus4197 :)) just cuz its illegal he can still build it, being illegal didnt rly stop drug dealers now did it?
2 words. fucking awesome.
Came back to Like this again in 2020. Fun to see the magic you work even with all manual machine tools. Needed this, thanks Furze!
Sooo,where shall I Find The Codex Pages of This Masterpiece?😄🔥
Hey Colin
Can you please explain the spring system in more detail?
Osmodius no cause this is classified as a switch blade which is illegal in the UK. He says in description that he had to leave details out
Search "Penguin Jolt Hidden Blade double action how to make". Its literally a detailed tutorial on how to make this
@Osmodius Here's a og design for this spring loaded version ua-cam.com/video/OcMYZXER0cs/v-deo.html
@@AOGWardog1229 yes in uk
Wait a minute, Collin now can be Jacob, just needs to learn parcour.
He would be the best Assassin ever with all his gadgets.
Ezio is best assassin
@@minatonam6147 that is also my opinion but Ezio doesnt have the grappling hook from Syndicate

Can you make the hook blade type it up its awsome
4:17 make a 10 hours of that
When I was a young man, I had liberty, but I did not see it. I had time, but I did not know it. And I had love, but I did not feel it. Many decades would pass before I understood the meaning of all three. And now, the twilight of my life, this understanding has passed into contentment.
Love, liberty, and time: once so disposable, are the fuels that drive me forward. And love, most especially, mio caro. For you, our children, our brothers and sisters. And for the vast and wonderful world that gave us life, and keeps us guessing. Endless affection, mia Sofia.
"Forever yours,
Ezio Auditore."
if you rework you could make it lauch out super fast
and by launch out i mean shoot
And the blade...its both sharp in the game :/
overbaked bagel
overbaked bagel if he use a stronger spring it yould be like a ballistic knife
