I am a very big fan of you video 'explanation' style. Even though I do not forge, I enjoy watching. Understanding each process is really the key to my enjoyment. You give me just the right amount of explanation and reasons for your processes. Thanks.
Hey hey! You did a video of the knife for my boss! I'm glad to be able to see it made and even more glad i could introduce him to your work. I guarantee this knife will be covered in moose blood this September. Side note, i just forge welded an 80crv2 bit into a 6lb 4142 speed felling/ splitting axe. My biggest axe so far. Keep up the good work!
It's so interesting watching hunks of raw meterial get worked into a tool. Your explanations along the way are also appreciated. I always like listening to craftsman talk about their choices and decisions.
*VERY* nice. A functional blade profile, not flashy, just workman-like and useful. This is the kind of blade I would buy and use; sure, there are plenty of lovely blades out there, but this one speaks to *me.*
Damn. You make it look so simple. I loved the forging of the stock metal, only doing stock removal, I have often wanted a wider piece of stock. Wonderful results.
I noticed that you were wearing a sweater, I thought you were far enough into S Tex that you wouldn’t need it, maybe not. Nice knife it’ll do it’s job. Thank you Sir for this video
Thanks! Yes sir, also similar to Randall knives. Soldering the guard seems to have fallen out of vogue in recent decades, but it's a solid and practical solution.
@@FireCreekForge Is that the steel that you use the majority of the time? I assume it is the most durable and also allows for the sharpest edge or less need to sharpen in the field? I am new to knives and trying to educate myself so I can buy a special knife for hubs. I value your skill and vids to teach the consumer. I also want to support a family business in the USA. Thank you.

Thank you I appreciate it
I’ve been saying this is the knife makers bill nye

Yes sir, thanks for the referral!
That's a big axe, neat project!
Hella dope knife, @FireCreekForge! Now it needs an equally dope sheath to go with it!

Yes sir, thanks for the support!
Your channel has helped me with figuring out the balance of forging and stock removal.
As always, impeccable work and beautiful results.
Thank you sir
I appreciate your craft and care to detail, nice Barlow 👍👍
I like seeing the tang go into the brass guard. It really makes it look like an even tighter fit.
Beautiful design, you did it well 😄😄
Beautiful design
I enjoyed watching you do a walk through of a stock removal blade
Very helpful
Glad it was helpful!
Good looking knife there. I am sure they will do the well.
Beautiful build!! Thanks
Thank you!
A beauty, great seeing you at it, thx for the video!
You bet, thanks for the support
Love the way the bottom guard turned out with the tang going into it
If you make a quarter in. scraper that is square it's easier to scrape the solder even if you use a utility blade
Another great knife. fun to see the "other" way to make a knife.
Thank you!
Thank you!
Just gorgeous 😮
Could have used a bit of moose stag for the handle! Nice blades, they will skin 👍
That's a good idea.

Nice I like your work
Thank you!

Thank you sir. Yes the combination of profiling and forging offers some additional options
I noticed that you were wearing a sweater, I thought you were far enough into S Tex that you wouldn’t need it, maybe not.
Nice knife it’ll do it’s job. Thank you Sir for this video
You bet, thanks for watching! It gets a little chilly here at times
Those are gorgeous. Hopefully they show up on the site soon.
Amazing!
Very nice
Хорошая работа!
Nice work, I've learned a couple things 👍, THANKS
Nice work. The soldering is similar to what Bob Loveless did.
Thanks! Yes sir, also similar to Randall knives. Soldering the guard seems to have fallen out of vogue in recent decades, but it's a solid and practical solution.
400 grit sanding would be just right, but it wouldn’t hurt to work on the cleanliness! Good job!
When will they be on the website?,awesome work by the way ❤your content
Should be up by the end of the week. Thanks for watching!
@@FireCreekForge thanks boss 🙏
Have you done a video on that laser??
Yep!
👍👍👍
What metal is the blade made of?
This is 52100 high carbon steel
