    This project was aimed toward a twisted Damascus pattern with cable in the middle. All in all, it did not come out how I'd like it, plus the cutting edge does not have up to standard steel, so I would consider this blade a fail.

    Looks good! Not a fail, but a learning curve. What you did learn will make the next one better. Recycle it. Fix it, put an edge on it, send it to me, and look like it could be a good boot knife or edc low profile carry. Put it on a belt buckle.
    Not a fail.
    Cool video. Good luck on the next one.

  • @3DForge59
    @3DForge59 22 дні тому

    Love watching the videos, one bit of advice I can give is when you are preparing the billet to twist, if you forget it into an octagonal shape, or even just round the corners you won’t have as many cracks or cold shuts after the twist. Also steel cable is a fairly high carbon steel. Im not sure about the stuff you used but a spark test would tell you.

I've never had any success without a press and corner squaring dyes to make it stay together. Its rough dude! but gooooooooodluck to ya brother.

      It usually took a few days for the forging. Treadle hammers have been around for a long time but before that they used apprentices and even their wives as strikers. What took time was the grinding and the making of the hilts. Scabbards took time as well. Different craftsmen did that work, though.
