Usually commentary annoys me on forging videos but yours is an exception. The way you describe what you're doing very informatively and casually makes your commentary very entertaining to listen to
This is by far my favorite forging channel. I love that you narrate and tell us what you're doing and I really like that you forge as much of the blade shape vs relying on cutting and grinding.
I've been watching knife making videos for a long time now, but this the first time I see someone really explain what they are doing and why. lot of them are silent or just talk about the steps they are in, but you my friend made me listen to every word you said, and it lights too many bulbs over my head.
Was complaining to wifey about RUclips recommendations with scantily clad gals bow hunting, then your vid was recommended and I noted the wedding band. Subscribed, excellent detailed and interesting content. There should be a specific profile setting for married guy video recommendations.
Very educational, clear easy to understand instructions. Such a beautifully well done work of art that is functional. I also liked it that there was not loud annoying "music" that would have covered up what you were saying. Thank you so much.
My wife and I just happened on Forged In Fire program a while back and I became engrossed in this. As an avid woodworker, I felt this looked like something I might like to try, but know nothing about the science and metallurgy of this. I built my first forge (a mini) yesterday…the journey begins. Thank you for this excellent video! Subscribed.
I’ve been watching videos and making blades for several months, and I learned some important things from this video just now. Thanks for being thorough!
Good to see how you are explaining to fix the screw ups! Most forging vids on here just show the "perfect" process and then the final result. Sure appreciate your skillful knowledge sir, and God bless you!
If I could I'd smash the like button a thousand times. I've watched you "build" at least 15 knives now. Some of them two or, three times. I. Want. One. Of. Those. Knives.
New Jersey Steel Baron packs their shipments well. Kudos to you for actually forging a blade and not being one of the millions of 'stock removal' knife guys. Guard jacks are a bit less violent way to 'seat' your guard without hammering and they are easy to make. Nice job. Forge On!!!
I'm a car guy, not a knife maker but I can tell you a plasma cutter will be a welcome addition to your shop. I bought an inexpensive Chinese machine and it is absolutely wonderful. I don't have nearly as much need as you do, but I consider it money well spent. We're only talking around two hundred bucks. Think about it.
You are to be commended for your generosity in sharing your processes and specific techniques. I absolutely love the fact that the smithing community is, for the most part, quite open to sharing "secrets." I will have to try your dilution ratio for ferric, so thanks in advance for better looking patterned steel!
It is an Amazing knife!! Only one thing what is not "fitted" in it is the guard...I belive if it would be black it would be much more nice! Actually as I wrote before this vid was the Best to me about the details you talked about!! Like a Real teacher who Cares!! Thank You!!
Thank you for explaining everything to me I really appreciate that it's kind of hard to find a video where people are explaining how to really do it because I'm just learning by looking at these guys and I really don't get to know all the stuff you're putting on it or how you're dipping it or you know the minor things the stuff that really makes the difference and I really appreciate that . Jordan Smith have a good day
I really really love how you take the time to clean and flux your steel. So much preparation for good forge welds. Prepare early so the finished knife can shine through. So much respect 👊
you have definitely been a great inspiration to me too learn how to make pattern welded steel and i still have a little trouble on it but nothing like before i started watching and learning from you, I have been making knives out of mono steel for years but up until I found your videos that I ever consider doing Damascus
Dude... Holy shit do you have some mad skills!!! You and guy's like you are what our country was made of, High skilled craftsman. Something sorely lacking in the modern era. NICE WORK!!!
This is way over my head. I never knew a knife would have so many layers of steel. But, this is the most beautiful knife. Thank you for sharing your process in such detail
Looks more Camp knife than Bowie? I know Bowies had a lot of different blade shapes, but I always think of the clip point. Really like San Mai pattern. Nice rustic knife.
That is one gorgeous Bowie. Love that it has a touch of Idaho in there as I am from Idaho and have a sawmill.,gained another subscribe great job thanks for sharing your talent. Cant wait for more vids.
Nice work. Beautiful Bowie. I think it is awesome that the saw blade came from northern Idaho. I've spent tons of time up there. I'll bet that saw blade saw a lot of beautiful country! Now its part of a beautiful blade! Excellent work! 👊👍
I live in north Idaho and have some of that same stuff I’ve forged into some really cool spatulas leaving the saw edge on one,Awsome videos dude cheers!
I'd been wondering why I keep seeing guys dunk their billets in diesel... Interesting. Learned quite a few things from this video. Thank you for the great info man it was also super sick to be able to observe your art.🤘🏼
Overall Beautiful knife... Love the etch... The grips look a little small for my mitts... Hmm... Not entirely sold on the shape of the brass handguard... Great Job

You are only one of the RUclipsrs who explain the steps you are doing, right and wrong. Great job, nice work.
Thank you I appreciate it

That San Mai construction really helps to show off the Damascus above. Beautiful knife.
Very educational, clear easy to understand instructions. Such a beautifully well done work of art that is functional. I also liked it that there was not loud annoying "music" that would have covered up what you were saying. Thank you so much.
I'm wondering how many people appreciate the work that went into that knife
Taking a raw piece of steel and turning it into a cutting instrument is art
Blade looks like a satellite photo of a coastline. Very cool. Beautiful work.
Glad to see you are still ok and doing well

Thank you sir

This is the best channel for learning new ways of forging. Thank you sir
Your client has a beautiful knife. You did a exceptional job.
This was the most precisious vid about forgeing what I ever saw and heard!! Thank you, a Big Thank!!!!

Amazing how much work truely goes into forging even just a billet never mind the blade itself. Great video
Dude... Holy shit do you have some mad skills!!! You and guy's like you are what our country was made of, High skilled craftsman. Something sorely lacking in the modern era. NICE WORK!!!

The contrast between the core and pattern has a nice depth to it. Almost a three dimensional. Looks awesome brother!
Glad you like it, thanks!
