As a non-english speaker I do enjoy listening to you, you sound like a really nice and humble guy. That said, I hope your new channel does great and you reach a wider audience. Keep up the great work!
Have been watching you for a while now. I like your approach and technique. Your editing adds to the style that is yours alone. You’ve got my vote in this challenge!
I've been watching you since day one of your journey into the bladesmithing world. JP you definitely got what it takes . And you are the king of getting that canister off of your billet lol. That was an awesome build ! Keep up the good work !
I wasn't sure where you were going for at first but in the end it turned out bad ass. I love the clean damascus along side the forge scale on the flats!
Love everything you do, dude. I love vicariously through your videos as I don’t think I’ll ever have the chance to start bladesmithing. Keep up the good work!
Very cool! Brut de forge is an excellent choice for apocalypse!! For kitchen cooking knife not so much... For a steak knife - would be nice... I love any consistent idea incoperated in a build! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the concern. We didn't have many problems aside from 2 tornadoes that went through our town, but it was on the opposite side from where i live. So i lucked out.
Nice build, as always. You have motivated me to do something like this with all the band saw blades that broke and are just lying around my shop. Very nice pattern, but the forged to finish look, I think, obscures the pattern you got.
Its a good way to recycle those old blades. I accumulate a lot. It does obscure it a bit but close your eyes and imagine. You take a rock and you break it and there is precious gem inside and you polish it to make it pop. Thats what i had in mind. A more contrast damascus would have made it nicer but i wanted to recycle the bandsaw blades
WOO! It's that time of the year! Excited to see what everyone has built! Normally I don't like a forged finish on a damascus blade (feels like a waste of the pattern to me) But with the apocalypse theme I think it works really well
Im thinking of making a forge to finish with some mosaic i have left and maybe it would look cool. I like that look but obviously i have to grind more than half the edge 😅
The thicker tip will give you more front end chopping power. While it isn't as efficient for swinging repeatedly over long periods of time, it makes it more efficient at chopping through an object in short bursts, like a kukri or similar blades.
Great knife, I like the forged finish on that. As a chopper/camp knife, a full polish would just scratch up anyway. BTW, I subscribed to the ASMR channel. Im looking forward to watching the first build. ✌️
Im going to make some cheaper mono steel ones in the upcoming weeks. Simple but work horses. A good knife is life changing. My first good knife was one i made years ago and it was trash compared to what i do now and it was still way better than what i had from walmart for cheap.
Good video thanks. Say I think the wood might be cherry. I make speaker cabinets, and that wood looks similar to some of the cherry I have used in the past. Good luck
Not a bad looking chopper type blade. Looks like it would make a good addition to a camp to process wood for a camp fire or even rough process hog or maybe a deer or elk or moose in camp.
Nice work as always JP…. Have you ever tried or considered CA (Super Glue) for finishing your handles? Achieves the same thing as the nail polish, but is WAY stronger, and will last forever!!! I apply it in very thin layers and sand it out between layers. Take a look at Star Bond thin CA.
I did nail polish to keep it from absorbing the acid and coffee so it wouldn't taint the wood color. Afterwards, i just wiped it off with acetone, but i didn't show that part. But to answer your question, i have, and it works well, especially on raw woods.
As to full grind vs forged finish: for a kitchen knife, fishing filet knife or a folding pocket knife, I prefer full grind. For a fixed blade that is more of an outdoor chopper, I like about 75% grind/25% forge finish, unless it is a fancy Damascus pattern, then full grind.
Want to make a mosaic with 75% grind 🤔 im curious to how it would look. And i have left over steel from my gator mosaic that im not doing anything with 🤔
again good work! for drilling holes i can suggest carbide drill bits.. i often see smith struggeling with drilling holes ^^ with carbide bits i can drill even hardend steal but you need good cooling. they are a bit expensive but after you broke the 5 normal drillbit an have 2 frustrating hours try to drill a hole the expense is evend out xD
My drill is a pain to set to the correct speeds for a carbide bit but i did just break yesterday so it might be time to upgrade to one with better speed control.
Yep, that's wood! Might be a Cocobolo or Goncalo Alves, they have that really deep orange/red colour to them but timbers from that part of the world are not exactly common where I live. Great looking bush knife
Regarding the finish: overall, I would say i prefer a clean finish. That being said, the apocalypse theme lends itself to the forge finish in a great way, and i think your decision makes sense - the final machete looks badass as hell! Love your videos, as always
i already found the new channel and have it playing in the background when im out in the shop lol. the handle wood to me looks almost like a cherry. great work again
Amazing as always!! Heads up on the "science" behind the white paint tho.... Aluminum oxide is usually the pigment for white spray paint. Also I use pink, yellow, purple, etc. They all work since its not the pigment that prevents the welding its nasty sediment it leaves as it burns preventing the bond. Try it out for a video one day you will have fun testing it :) I FAFO like way to much so I had to try it.
Oh man...such an awesome build! I always wanted to get into forging...definitely a really cool zombie stomper! How much would one like that run cost wise? Keep em coming!!!!
Not sure. I wouldnt sell this one. Its a little too heavy 😅 but i dont really take custom orders so i dont even know how to price them. My time is so sparce that if i take an order i cant make a video and right now youtube is my priority. It will change eventually but right now i can only afford 1 or maybe 1.5 knives a week.
Have you ever thought about making a mixture of metals such as osmium steel and niobium in order to make a metal with incredible durability or is this a far cry from what you can do?
I think I would have gone with the clean, leveled finish on the blade. That rough finish takes away from the smooth line and work of the Machete. The handle is American Black Cherry (ABC), as best I can tell. At least it looks like the ABC stock of lumber that I have to build my guitars.
I didn't want to do the clean finish because it would be too clean for an apocalypse weapon in my opinion. And I agree I figured it would be a kind of cherry but a black cherry makes sense.
Your ASMR chamnel found me. Which is dope. I guess because im already subscribed. I actually just finished watching a video over there before coming over here.
Why not etch the blade BEFORE you glue up the handle? Then you wouldn't have to go through the nail polish step. This is my favorite of all your builds. Gorgeous.
Thanks. If i di that its a pain to get the etch on the exposed steel on the handle after i grind it down. Some makers just leave it bare steel but i like my etch to go around the whole knife. I think it is a better look.
Thanks. I think the same. And yes i have a store link in my discription. Its pretty deep in there since we had to put upnthe sponsers and channels first.
@@JPsBladeworks cool, is that something you have done in the past? Im guessing the pattern wouldn't be as crisp and almost fractal-like. Would be interesting to see using very differing nickel content powders and a heavy etch with coffee dip. Love your work pal and greetings from Salford UK
A very nice knife indeed! I am curious: looks like your bandsaw blades were for metal. If so, they are, most likely, bi-metal, so the teeth are made from a harder steel (most likely M42). Do you think these M42 inclusions might give you issues with annealing the billet? Thanks!
@@JPsBladeworks I plan on using similar blades in my very first damascus. Perhaps, I will just cut the teeth to avoid issues. 🙂 I read somewhere that the blade itself is often 15n20 but I doubt. Thank you again!
This is a cleaver, not a knife, but it is excellent. In fact, I am not an expert in knives, but is there any project to make a sword, not a katana, but a Scimetar. It is considered the best type of blade, but I hope you do not confuse the curved sword with the Scimetar, because there is a difference between them. Many people confuse them in shape because Saber is another type.
I have no preference on blade style, finished look and forged finish have their place. 😄 As for having a machete withOUT a sharp point, thats fine by me; a machete is primariy used for hacking through stuff, not stabbing it 😉 Also, while this challenge is themed, UK law prohibits what they call "zombie knives" now; your machete doesn't fall within that ban, so I'm even happier with the style.

That's a damn fine chopper Sir! You know I'm a sucker for a forged finish! 🤘
Im also a sucker for that forged finish on damascus. Like a rocky surface polished to a fine gem 🫡
I like both forged finish and polished finish
Dude THAT is AMAZINGLY COOL!!!! Well done!!👍👍
Thank you
i LOVE the more rugged looking ones, i don't see many people do that kind of thing, it would be awesome to see more🥶
Thanks glad you liked it
Love the finish on that being raw like that for the apocalypse build.
Yes too clean and polished would look off for an apocalypse weapon.
New Challenge!! Appreciate you explaining your thought process.
I appreciate you watching 👀
Do it the way you feel comfortable to and if it works well for you and don't listen to anyone else if it's your comfort zone and it works
I feel comfortable doing basically anything. I just have limitations on what i can do for now because of my shop size
Beautiful blade. As for the look that I like, I like both. Depends on what I'm using the knife for.
Probably zombies 🤔
Looks great! Forged finish or polished….depends on the blade for me, I like both in the right application. Nice entry for the challenge
Thanks

You need mean for an apocalypse 😅
Love your work. Wish I could afford one of your chef knives. They’re incredible.
Im going to make some cheaper mono steel ones in the upcoming weeks. Simple but work horses. A good knife is life changing. My first good knife was one i made years ago and it was trash compared to what i do now and it was still way better than what i had from walmart for cheap.

Outstanding young man!!!❤
Thank you
Not a bad looking chopper type blade. Looks like it would make a good addition to a camp to process wood for a camp fire or even rough process hog or maybe a deer or elk or moose in camp.
Or maybe clearing soe bushes behind my house 🤔
Glad you and your family are all alright!!!
Thank you for the worries. It wasnt too bad in my area because the hurricane ended up going a bit more north but we did have some tornadoes hit town 😱
That's a pretty wicked blade. Glad to hear you survived Milton. See you in your next video
Thanks Mark. Milton wasnt too bad in my area so we lucked out this time. I appreciate the thoughts
Love this mate done well
Thank you
beautiful blade! about the handle wood I can confirm with confidence: it's definitely wood (I've seen several woods)
Well we got step down one. Now we just have to identify what species of wood it is and if it does indeed come from a tree 🤔
Unless it's damascus or any of the mai variants, I like the forge rough finish. I feel like it gives the blades some soul.
Im a fan of the work Niel Kamimura does. He is a master at forged to finsh knives. I hope to get to make a knife with him one day.
Thank you explaining your techniques. I've had a similar issue with band material, what type of drill are you using.
A harbro frieght one that the pulls just broke on me 😅 might be time to upgrade or get a small table top one until i can afford a milling machine
Great vid man! Glad you got it in even though the storm set you back.

Thanks and yes the guy i get the wood from works with some exotic woods but im not sure ive ever heard that name before.
It seems african cedar to me.
I'm glad you made it though Milton alright. To answer the question of clean looking vs rough, I'd have to vote for clean.
Thanks for the concern. I agree for the most part. Some knives have bother but its very little towards the top and it can look nice when done right
Regarding the finish: overall, I would say i prefer a clean finish. That being said, the apocalypse theme lends itself to the forge finish in a great way, and i think your decision makes sense - the final machete looks badass as hell! Love your videos, as always
Thanks. I like the duality between the forged finish and the polished pattern coming out beneath it. Gives it a nice contrast
i already found the new channel and have it playing in the background when im out in the shop lol. the handle wood to me looks almost like a cherry. great work again
Your the man. And i think its some kind of cherry as well.

Great build. Do you take nail polish remover to the handle after etching?
Yea but i forgot to record it. I just took a rag with some acetone and wiped it off. It comes off pretty easy.
"It's a little thick, it's okay" Thanks man I needed that
Glad i could help

Not sure if its teak. Ive seen teak before and its definitely prettier than this wood. Though this wood is pretty.
So awesome bro!
Thanks
Very cool look - definitely Apocalyptic. Do you use nail polish remover on the handle after it's done, so you can wax/oil it?
Yes i wipe it down with acetone.
I prefer a fully-ground blade, *especially* for damascus, because a forge-to-finish look hides most of the damascus pattern.
I agree but sometimes its nice to spice things up a little bit
Have you ever thought about making a mixture of metals such as osmium steel and niobium in order to make a metal with incredible durability or is this a far cry from what you can do?
So far of a cry that i cant even hear it 😅

To each their own but if a Master Smith's technique works for you, I say keep on keeping on.
Agreed
Well done, that wood looks like Walnut wood
In person it looks more like a tint of orange or than brown.
On axes, machete, large knives I like a rough look.
Me too
Typically I like the fine finish blade, but for an apocalypse knife the forged finish is definitely better
It gives it a more rugged look
Why not etch the blade BEFORE you glue up the handle? Then you wouldn't have to go through the nail polish step.

I have no idea how to do that. But ill research it and see if its something i could do.

My bru! Once again, sweet work. I think leaving it a bit heavy is a great choice for a machete. Also just curious, what is your day job? Thanks.
Thanks. I work for a cabinetry shop.
I like that finish also, I don’t think every blade needs a mirror finish
Got a store?
Thanks. I think the same. And yes i have a store link in my discription. Its pretty deep in there since we had to put upnthe sponsers and channels first.
Cool man 👍
Thanks
personally I prefer the "grungy" look of the forge finish
I do too. i dont normally combine it with damascus but this was too good of an opportunity to not to.
Is it possible to make a blade using just powdered steel? 3 or 4 layers each of different grades of powder in a steel case?
Yes
@@JPsBladeworks cool, is that something you have done in the past? Im guessing the pattern wouldn't be as crisp and almost fractal-like. Would be interesting to see using very differing nickel content powders and a heavy etch with coffee dip. Love your work pal and greetings from Salford UK
