    Just a quick thing I think might help with monetization, you could easily separate some videos like this into 3 or more parts with some montages and stuff to add some extra time. Lol I know you've seen how it's done with the zweihander and Calvary swords. I absolutely love the single video showing everything; it's easily my favorite way that people post since you won't have to watch a bunch of extra stuff just for making the video longer. That being said, I wanted to just comment this in case you make any decent commissions from RUclips for each video.
    Love the content; have a great day!

    Here is an idea. Take all the ends that you cut off from doing damascus and use them to make a canister Damascus bar and see how it looks.

  • @OuroborosArmory
    @OuroborosArmory 5 месяцев назад +1

    I was told that the Damascus requirement was to prove you could make it. As the fact that you can buy Damascus billets means stock removal is still possible.

    I have not seen so much dedication for twist Damascus more than this series. And I’m loving every minute of it. It’s too bad that the other knife was scrapped because the composite was crazy.

  • @danielriedmuller6645
    @danielriedmuller6645 5 месяцев назад +1

    Genuine question here, when you abandon a project what do you do with the cracked blade, or the damascus billet with a bad weld? I would imagine, the failures would be cut into small pieces to be used again, perhaps in a canister. Or do they get sent to scrap to be remelted into new steel?

    Why can´t you take away from the spring? Wouldn't that do the same thing?

      If spring gets too small and too "springy" it can close on forward cuts and injure user.

    15:37 I've never made a knife myself, but have used many. And that sound/motion is something I've always enjoyed of my favorite knives I've used/owned. But never had words to express it or why/what it meant. Just knew it was a satisfying part of it.
    TIL why that is! Thanks Will!

    One caveat that I would make about using a mini-split heat pump in your shop: Heat pumps are best at keeping a constant temperature, NOT making a huge amount of heat at once. Especially for a shop like yours with a lot of thermal mass in cast iron, don't expect fast changes in temperature.

      @jacobogden6710 5 месяцев назад

      They are different smiths. And Alec does a lot of quicker knife series now. Some of us preferred when Alec did 14 part series about a single project because of the time and detail he put into it. I don’t feel his videos have the same detail and dedication now but I still watch, he’s an interesting tradesman as is will.
