This is a true craftsman. He actually forged it to shape unlike virtually every other kiradashi build on UA-cam where it's pure stock removal.
I call them people cookie cutters.if you have any experience with a grinder.you can cut out knife
@@travisconnolly8308 haha i like that one
Yes I noticed true craftsman.
There's no practical benefit to forging it as opposed to stock removal. The benefit of stock removal for this, on the other hand, is that you can get the exact same tool in a fraction of the time, for something this simple.
There are times where forging makes sense, and can save time, but this isn't one of those times.
It doesn't matter how they do it if it has the same result
i don't know anything about Blacksmithing
but i'm addicted to this channel
maybe it's just me, but i find it so calming
it's like watching art in the making
Thank you Ahmed. I hear that a lot actually!
The love of learning and teaching is what made civilization =) It's kind of funny, but if i became the last person on this planet and i found a place like yours.. then im pretty confident i could make both an axe and a knife fairly easy. It wouldn't be the prettiest one and maybe it would break with time but still, i could make one as i've learned how to. No need to reinvent tempering! It's the same with other things i've learned here. I can build a hut out of mud and some twigs and then make pottery. I know how to weld and how to use a router, table saw, glue stuff, make dowels ...... etc etc ....... of course my hands need to learn it too, but there theory and understanding is there :)
Wherever i look now i see so many possibilities. All the ways to solve problems.
There's no wealth like the wealth of knowledge and insight!
Great video as always! Lovely garden!
Thank you Sleepydog! I think you're quite right about that...
Ahmed Abdul Nabi it's like making my enemies usefull
Ironic really considering bob ross a great artists had a knife of similar design that he used for his paintings
TÅ's videos can stand alone. I really think he has produced a video that compliments the work. The balance of the hammer blows, the quiet of the hand sanding and sharpening, speeding up the process in such a way as to not be silly. The concentration which permeates the work! Fascinating.
Thank you!
I'm a perfectionist and i love how you work on every detail and make your tools not only beautiful, but also high quality.
He is doing the basic knifemaking stuff in this vid, i would have done it a little different but he shows nothing special
@@skiiiler7943 wow such hatred but u assure he's doing more than basics
@@skiiiler7943 Let’s see what you can do
I'm happier developing a improved Gardener tool than building war knives to strick fear.
Love this Smith's skills for tool building and how he's always a Master of many crafts. 🙌
2000 dislikes????? Dude! Your blacksmith operation is the cleanest I've seen! I love your videos, especially with your son. Keep it up sir! I've learned so much from you...
Thanks!
Loved the interlude during the oven tempering. Congratulations on your lovely garden and orchard!
Thank you!!
That's one of my favorite parts of his videos. Sometimes it a nature scene, sometimes a cultural event and sometimes his kids are in it. Nice little break from the hammering.
This channel is some kind of magical. No voice, only text when it's really essential to ad information. And the best of all, to see how You use your own hammers to work on your projects. Fascinating!!!!
Thank you very much!
That knife and a chunk of black walnut... hours of fun. Thanks for another excellent example.
Thanks
I'm a simple man. I see a new video, I click like.
Perfect! :)

I really appreciate your channel. There are so many bladesmiths on youtube but very little blacksmiths that do the work you do. Ive always wanted to see people forging tools and architectural pieces. I really appeciate your work and technique! Cheers from Ohio, USA.
Thank you very much!!
Anybody with the name torbjorn is immediately a master blacksmith.
Blacksmith, illustrator, knife maker, wood carving, greenhouse builder, gardener... what are you???? Lol... a man with many hobbies and talent. I don't why I missed this video and your greenhouse update video. Just want to stop by at your therapeutic session. Keep up with the good work and congratulations again on your 100k landmark!
Thank you Simon!!
I start to act like a little kid just before Christmas Eve whenever I see one of your videos Mr.Ahman. Great content and very educational (as always).Thanks for sharing.
Ha ha, great! Thank you.
this is like the most calming yt channel ive ever watched, and i love that you not just blacksmithing in the whole video
Ooooh, I have to make a die-holding piece like that for my future powerhammer.. Brilliant, just brilliant!
Beautifully made, you are a true craftsman. You make it look so simple, which it obviously is not.
There are two kinds of blacksmiths my friend. Those that are named Torbjörn, and those that are not.
All jokes aside, this is absolute artwork.
Ha ha, thank you!
Have you ever been to the Harz in Germany. The heart and soul of blacksmithing. I visited one guy there. He makes knifes and swords for the skeiks and sultans. 20K€ and up.
I was not familiar with that style knife, I was waiting for the wood handle, imagine my surprise! Great video and love your work.
You can not imagine how useful such a knife is it
It’s like a sturdy box cutter
I find it verry satisfying when a person bangs a red hot steel into shape..
Loved the wood carving design at the end.
absolutely amazing.not only did you do an outstanding job forging/finishing the kiridashi,it looks like youre also extremely talented at wood carving as well!
this is so motivating, and calming at the same time.
Doing something so tough and strong like smithing, and also doing something gentle and loving like gardening! This man is occupied with great things :)
This is so cool. Hey, you don’t have to fast forward. I could watch for 5 hours.
Anybody else amazed by his beautiful garden?
I had to come back to this for inspiration. I'm starting my journey as a solo apprentice bladesmith, and wanted to find projects that look simple enough to do by hand. This is quite an elegant tool that I feel wouldn't be too difficult.
Your work is awesome as always,
Torbjörn!
Good luck!
@@torbjornahman Thank you, brother! :)
Your artistic craftsmanship never ceases to amaze me. Beautiful tool!!!
Beautiful work. He reminded me of when I helped my father make blades for a pocket knife and a knife. I helped my father a lot to do a lot of work in the forge and anvil. Good times. I'm from Tremembé, São Paulo, Brazil. Big hug. Like given.
Cool, thanks!
Ancient Japanese wisdom says: "It's time to update that printer!" :P
He he, damn right! Still prints though...
if it ain't broke why fix it
Lol
Such a simple thing, beautiful...
It's such a pleasure watching a true craftsman at work
An artist deserves all the appreciation thank vou
You get a like just for that magnet and belt sander trick. I like it
i can't believe this mans name is actually Torbjörn! it's so epic
Ha ha, well it is! I'm among 20.000 other men in Sweden with this name. :)=
nice to see blacksmiths check sharpness the same way jewellers do with engraving tools.
Really enjoy your videos, they are very well done.
There are a lot of us who watch your videos who wish we were gifted with a fraction of your talents, your a blessed, gifted artisan.
Jack, in Missouri USA
Thanks Jack!!
This was so pleasant to watch, thank you.
Thanks!
As usual your work is impeccable
Love watching you do your thing... I enjoy watching you create as much as I like watching Bob Ross paint
A perfect blend of art and utility. There is something very zen about your movement and skill. Everything with purpose, nothing is a waste and every detail, no matter how small gets your complete attention and care. I just love it!
Thank you!!
Wow, the knife was art as it is but the use of the knife? Amazing.
Very nice work, I just used in this case the abrasive stones and 25 -50 thousand grid, And finally withdrew on the beef skin.
Imagine how much time humanity had to perfect the blacksmithing and armoring trade
Without UA-cam we would have never known about such great artisans
Great work! It would be wonderful if you made more Japanese carpinter tools
one of the best channels on YT! Great!
I love the pride of your workmanship!
I have no skill in blacksmithing, but I have watched enough of these types of videos to know exactly how to use the tools and equipment
Teacher: Define art.
Me: This creation right here

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I cant understand why some people disliking that it is a great video
Me too... I think the thumbs down button is quite abused really.
Moritz Pape because people naturally hate Torbjorn.... (Overwatch)
John Yeah they get PTSD and flashbacks when they see the name
they think it means : dis i like
Cause torbjorn is op heheheh
That's an art and you're definitely a master in it. Great video, thanks.
Another great, useful piece. I just love the style of these videos. Simultaneously meditative and instructional.
Thank you! I'm glad you like them.
Hello i am from KAZAKHSTAN big master respect
Love the kiridashi, I tried to make one out of an old saw blade but it would not harden.
I need to do more research :)
Saw blades are generally already hard. You'll likely need to anneal it first, shape it, the harden again with oil.
TA, the best thing about your channel is that you take the time to reply to comments. Keep it up, it helps us to know you better.
Great! Thanks. It takes a bit of time though... don't know for how long I can manage...
Wow! What a beautiful piece of craftsmanship, and I am about 10 minutes into the video. 😀 Now for the finish !
Truly a man of many talents. Great video! Thank you.
Love when smiths forge their bevels in
I like how the video progresses from brutality all the way through to finesse. Nicely done!
Every time I try to sit down and sketch out a kiridashi, I can't stand the way it looks. I think you made a stellar little blade. I might have to steal your style...
No problem!
Always a joy to watch you work!
snyggt hantverk som vanligt. superb ljud, bild och redigering gör att dina klipp är jättekul att följa. tummen upp!
Tack Robert!
robertborgman håller med
As always you are an example of a true artist! You have the balance with nature we all should have. The garden is the balancing act ,no doubt! You carve also? Truly inspiring you are my friend! Learn something new every video. Thank you for taking your time and effort to be a teacher , we need more men like you in the world!
So kind. Thank you!
Despite youtube's algorithm changing to favor cheap clickbait, I hope you stay and continue to make amazing videos like these.
Thanks!
That is beautiful!!!! My next project :o)
Amazing, as usual ! (and nice garden ^^)
youre videos are so calming and therepeutic
I am glad that many Japan-made tools are used to make your wonderful products
:) Thanks
so calming... I feel sleepy
Me too but I'm drinking Tequila also!
Samee
Nicely done, as always!
pretty darn neat carving skills I might add.
What CAD software are you using?
I use an old AutoCAD 2000lt program myself to create drawings and convert to .Dxf for my water jet contractor I use for parts.
Thank you! For this I only used Abobe Illustrator. Hardly a Cad program, but good for playing with shapes. I use DraftSight for small Cad projects, it's free!!
Wow that is very Sweet Looking, You did a Amazing Job on it.
What a beautiful knife, Torbjörn. I've been watching a few of your videos throughout the years and this was without doubt one of my favourite products.
Thank you Calle!
Omg, those sharpening stones, want em so much, but theyre so expensive
wonderful, as usual
I subscribe to a lot of channels, this is the only one where I have notifications turned on.
:) Thanks!
I would like one for my shop. Beautifully crafted.
Another awesome project, maybe one day I'll be able to craft such things..... here's hoping. Is that the new touch mark you got from Glen GS Tongs? The guy that makes those things does some beautiful work from what I've seen.
Thanks! Yes it is! Seems to work fine :)
The great bob ross wielded one of those when he painted
NeechiGaming
No he didn’t. That was a paint knife, not kiridashi. 🙄🙄🙄
wow all the technical tips is there for blacksmith in this video start up ,preparing and finishing.
This was one of the most satisfying videos i've watched in a VERY long time.
Thank you!
Really hard work but your best nice thank you for share this video
The knife looks great, but I want to see how did you made the computer and printer!!!
Ha ha, simple soldering... :)
Torbjörn Åhman ... and bit by bit?
He hand forged every piece of his computer using the very furnace we see there each plate hammered out to its exact shape
Via eBay for 10$
Canadian Cookie how'd he forge the furnace?
this dude is a BOSS for sure. HOLY. I feel like crying over such beauty and craftsmanship. Its true love invested in work.
Thank you very much!
Yeah I clicked the like button before I even watched the video based on the thumbnail alone. I new this was going to be a good one, great knife and video as always.
:) Thanks!
That is a beautiful tool, and what a beautiful garden!

Watching again, this is so satisfying.
Your videos are so relaxing, almost all nights before sleep i come to see another one. Great job, mate! Blacksmithing is a wonderfull skill.
Keep doing this.
Thank you Lucas!!
Oh my, never saw 12k grit stone.
Incredible work, both on the knife and the video!!!!!! Does the knife have a small bevel on the cutting edge in addition to the main bevel, or is the cutting edge formed by the main bevel?
Thanks. Yes, it has a small secondary bevel. I wanted a slightly more robust edge and the small bevel also makes it easier to sharpen.
Oh, okeh! Thanks!!!
Jules Verne you sure to go 20,000 leagues jnder the sea in order tp wrote "20,000 leages under the sea, right?"
That is just awesome! Nice work and beautiful design!
Copy this years ago and great for having a handy knife and leather work.
amazing.. !!
