Love these videos. No super steels, no exotic handles, just steel coal fire hammer forged, plain wooden handles. All crafted by hand. Real bushcraft tools!
Bush Channel I hope you go to Hue City in Vietnam you will see how the Blacksmith make knife, they make some knives you never seen before very beautiful I was one of them. I will discovery a lot of things. your channel make me remembering I was one of this blacksmith. Anyway thanks for your youtube channels.
This is awesome. I love the set up they have in all of these. Low tech and cheap but very practical and likely efficient. The tools are lovely too. Not the highest quality in the world but who cares they are probably cheap and work well. They can be used aggressively and you don’t need to worry about keeping them in perfect shape because they are made to be used. That young man with the sledge hammers was super accurate. I’m assuming he is an apprentice or a helper. Do they burn charcoal or bituminous coal? I love how they burn in the handles. Thanks for uploading
Want to forge a good knife you should go to the mountains of North Vietnam, because that is the place specializing in forging of the ethnic groups there, they make very sharp knives. In the South of Vietnam, they only make knives for gardening, but in the North of Vietnam, the ethnic groups there have to make a living in the forest, so they pay special attention to knives.
1:17 that steel looks a whole lot like re bar, unless he has welded on a re bar handle for the purpose of forging, which I doubt he did. This brings to question the hardness of the finished piece. I know in some countries they have limited resources and have to use what they have. The craftsmanship is excellent though, especially without the aid of a lot of power tools.
It probably holds an edge well enough for them, and really, you don't want a super hard edge for a working tool since the harder the edge, the more prone to chipping/breaking it'll be
You can see the sparks in the grinding process which suggest reasonable carbon content,also it a work tool hard edge will just make it useless when you have to use it to chop tree and branch

Indonesia is here to support👍👍
Loved this video, as always. Can't wait for the next one, the preview looks brilliant.
Thank you, if everything goes to plan the Xa Gac video should publish on the 14th of June.
you must admire the Vietnamese for their "can do" spirit. Hey, I got a pair of sandals and shorts how about we go making some knives today?
That one you showed at the end is wild looking that they use in the coffee fields
Enjoyed very much as always and gave a Thumbs Up
Yes the Xa Gac is quite an amazing looking tool. It’s the best of our Vietnam videos so we’re saving it for last :)

The ones I got from him are outstanding and very practical.
WoW! That power hamer at the end of the video ! 11:43
Enjoy your videos
granted every smith becomes accurate with a hammer - but the guy with sledgehammer is pretty good!
S C pretty is an understatement. Especially for his age I know people who use sledge hammers daily and are less accurate than he is
AWESOME THANK YOU For SHARING
If you're in Vietnam you should check out Zwe company. It's located in Ba Vi. They're pretty good Blacksmiths.

Hey mate, where is this guy? I'm in Hoi An right now and would love to drop in
Just show this video with his face to enough people, someone local will know him.
Hi !
Do you know where can i find blacksmiths in Koh Samui, Koh Phangan or Koh Tao pleas ?
Frenchie EDC , every village in Thailand, Cambodia etc has a blacksmith,just ask around

I noticed the re-bar as well. Take a look at the sparks coming off the blade when he grinds it -looks like reasonably high-carbon to me.

Brasil 😀😀😀
Awesome

Wow, rebar? Maybe the type he uses has a higher carbon content.
Use what ya got
@@Matityahu-the-God Just be sure to take a file along, it will soon need it.
Machete price
I paid 500,000 per machete after bartering. that's about $33 Australian, and well worth it. As of July 2019. I did purchase 4 though.
To (kalimantan selatan ,indonesia) bro there are a lot of blacksmiths
Nice
If you have a need for a high quality blacksmith in Vietnam, I will recommend it to you.
But did you notice all his girlfriends phone numbers on the wall?...….Hold on! that's my mums number!!

Making a peasant knife
8:10 Uhhh... that shouldn't happen..😛
Walang subo.
REBAR IS TOTAL CRAP FOR USING IN ANYTHING WITH A EDGE. NOT ENOUGH CARBON,
You can see the sparks in the grinding process which suggest reasonable carbon content,also it a work tool hard edge will just make it useless when you have to use it to chop tree and branch
