Very nice! I feel like each feature of the knife works together well to create an over all great looking piece.
Here we go!
Like the new forge Erick ! Also like how the knife curled back to make the handle ! Cool knife
Thank you Steven!
Yes Erick thats another hard forged pice of steel and you managed it perfekt to find the right dimensions for tang and blade
well done and a good example what to do with a pice of scrap steel wow 🍀🍀🍀
Thank you for the kind words as always Klaus!
Beautiful blade and for my personal suggestion for your next hand forged blade how about a throwing knife
You got that process down👍 awesome blade
Thank you Don!
That thing is awesome! I want to make one like that now
G’day, I strongly believe, that keeping it real is what makes it a more personable project…..from making use of what most would not, and your, roaringly, naked well sculpted Sexy Iron Beauty is the, near Perfect (doing the heating process in charcoal) example of keeping shit real👏🏼. Hats off mate!
Thank you Kevin!
Nice work, turned out real clean!
Thanks Man! It was a blast to make.
Awesome job. You had me when I saw you using a piece of the leaf sping that I use for a shop paper wieght lol. Again great job.
Lol, I do the same thing with the ends of leaf springs. This piece just decided to cut paper instead of weigh it down 😁
You have done it the right way when they first became common they certainly didn't give it a fancy finish etc so yes you have done it right and it looks grea
Thank you Andy!
Excellent build
Thank you Chip!
Great job my friend!
Thank you very much Tony!
Your forging is really improving. My goal this winter is to improve forging myself and will be giving one of these a go soon. Cheers from Utah.
Thanks! It's definitely a fun skill to work on.
Nice job.
Now I feel lazy & wasteful .. I always throw the ends of the leaf spring away .. Another Good Lookin Solid Knife !
Gotta use it all 😁. Thanks David!
13:00 sing baby! 🤘
Yeah that thing was hard for sure.
Nice touch with the copper wrap! Would have liked to see how to start and stop the wrap. Great looking knife and looks like a lot of fun to forge.
Beautiful!!
Thank you!
Hey 👋 there that's a nice!!! Beauty buddy blessings 🙌 happy Thanksgiving 😊
Thank you! Happy Thanksgiving to you too!
Erik…hands down, this is best series so far on the YTB! I love every single piece you forged! You have your style, as I’ve mentioned before, you are true artist sir! I envy you!
Thank you Adam!
Like it, looks awesome👍
Thank you Richard! 😃
I think a forged billhook would be cool for the next one. A little bit of a change from knives and more challenging.
It took a heck of a beating to get there!
Suggestion- really primitive knife that dates back to when people made knives out of a split bone would be the Siberian Yakut knife. Its got some pretty interesting geometries happening with a hollow on the sharpening, right side that's completely flat and a gentle curved bevel on the back left side of the blade. Rest is mostly just a semi-spearpoint shape with a simple handle made out of wood, bone and made for working with gloves so it doesn't need a guard.
I've seen a couple of those being made, I might try one of those.
Very nice.
Thank you!
For your next build I vote a Yakut knife, different and fun to build
That seems to have a couple of votes so far.
@@theriversexperience9383 it is a very different knife, made a couple of them and they are brilliant, oldest knife design still being made, the original survival knife as well, jut watch out for left and right handed, fun to make as well
Who would NOT want that as an edc?? I’m English so no good over here across the pond.BUT that was an awsome build 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Thank you Alan!
@@theriversexperience9383 can we see the sheath build for it too🙏🏻🤣👍🏻🇬🇧
good job 😍👍
Thank you!
Make a sheeth for your black smith knife 🗡
I HAD to watch once I saw the title. Congratulations this is one of the only actual forged to FINISH knives I have seen. Almost all forgers are still stock removal guys in the end but you did it all. Incredible work!! Fantastic knife and shows some awesome skill. I am glad I subed a while back.
Thank you for the awesome words, I really appreciate it!
Nice job. Hey have you done a spear yet?
Man that handle is so cool!! Awesome Build! :D
Thank you!
I’m blown away by the forged bevels on every one of these so far. Such a smooth transition from that beefy spine to a fine blade. Love the copper and blue. Maybe another historic piece would be cool? That seax was amazing, maybe a gladius or kopis? That’s a lot of steel though.
Thank you Victor! Those are great ideas!
That's an awesome blade. Really liking the forge series, making me want to get out and pound some steel.
Thanks Jeff! Get out there and get it.
A great looking blade. I’m really loving the forged look. How many times did you quench up drawing out that handle so long and thin? I know I mentioned it a little late the last video so how about a competition chopper? It’s an amazing knife and would look good forged I think.
I will be doing a competition chopper soon. It's already on the "to do" list 😁
That’s great! I can’t wait to see it!
Awesome! Definitely makes sense to do one of these in this series. Turned out great!
Thanks Cory! I agree.
😎 👍🏼
Thank you!
I love your work you are a true artist.
Amazing hammer skills the tange and bevel forming.
I did it on a long knife once but it keapt sabring on me. Took me a long time to figure out what i was doing wrong .
I've got 3 ulu knives on the go right now my first attempt.
Had 3 designs but couldn't choose which one to do.
So I'm doing all 3 lol.
Thank you Craig! I've done that before, design 3 knives then make them all lol.
Awesome! I would love to do one of those myself some day. Might I suggest a railroad spike knife, but with a piece of high carbon sandwiched in?
Thanks Mark! That's a good idea.
@@theriversexperience9383 I think that's an excellent idea. There are several ways of doing this I've tried, and none of them has been satisfactory, especially my lame attempt at a taco san mai. Sigh.
Love it! Especially how you managed to get a guard out of the handle. Happy Thanksgiving brother!
Thanks you Jason! Happy Thanksgiving to you too!
Or maybe a sax with a bone handle
Excellent Job moving that steel man! 👏 about how long do ya think it took isolating and drawing out that tang alone?
The tang took about just over an hour in total work. That's with heating times included. The overall knife took about 2.5 hours to forge including heat times and that's of course just taking my time and not rushing.
Integral bolster by hand
This will be done at some point during this series.
This may be a stupid question, but why is this particular style knife called a blacksmith knife?
More or less because of the style of handle. The handle was forged to this particular shape and wasn't done through stock removal or utilizing handle scales.
