    I like the authenticity. Ali thanks for stopping to take time and talk about things you’re doing. I’ve seen several people that just roll through it and you have no idea what they’re thinking

    Update: I’ve been using this seax every weekend for close to a year now. It’s held up extremely well and still sharp as a scalpel

    I like the pitted look. It looks like a working knife handed down for generations.

      Sorry to be off topic but does anybody know a method to log back into an Instagram account..?
      I stupidly forgot the password. I love any tricks you can give me.

      @Lian Hank Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
      Seems to take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

    Well done bro, I'm about to get forging myself. The seax was always going to be my first project, you've given me some great tips 😍

    Now that's a one cool seax! I have been thinking doing one some day, and a re create a pattern welded merovingian sword found near my home, here are many iron age graves and we have medieval church 1304ad in our village.

    Great video Phil, truly enjoy the commentary. Very helpful. I got a set of F250 springs waiting for projects to clear my bench before I try a saex and broad saex set in very much this style. Thanks again.

  • @christiansteele7386
    @christiansteele7386 Год назад +1

    Honestly I think you should Al least try wootz steel at least once, it’s historically accurate and definitely more authentic

    Could you make a yakut knife some time? Great video as always, hopefully I'll be able to start forging soon.

      I had to look that up, thats an interesting knife for sure, I certainly will have to try my hand at making one.

    When did Vikings crew claim the Seax? The Seax gave the Saxons their name and predates the vikings by 300 years.

    • @PhilBaumhardt
      @PhilBaumhardt  2 года назад

      Hard to say, but based on how long it had been sitting there maybe the 60s or 70s

    If you're worried about the glue not mixing properly, then i guess you should mix it properly.
