I like how patient you were with straightening the blade. I’ve seen you do a lot of blades. Your a great forger and metalist. Keep up the great work and the vids.
I think this is the first video I have seen where I can watch the entire sword and scabbard being made start to finish from scratch. Seeing what it takes to make something as "simple" as a chape or throat for the scabbard, for example, was really educational. I definitely plan on watching many of your other videos! Lovely sword and scabbard, by the way!

this is as far as i am concerned, your masterwork~! absolutely beautiful technique that shows and TEACHES your incredible bladesmithing talents. thank you, Freerk!
You are a true Bladesmith my friend. Your attention to detail it's just too great. If you sell them, and had the budget, your blades would be a must on a collection. Looking forward to keep watching your awesome builds. You are one of the best Bladesmiths I have seen so far. Keep it up!
Probably the type of people who think a sword should have widely serrated edges, a crossguard 4 inches high, and a demon-head pommel which weighs 2 pounds by itself!
This is more fun to watch than I would have expected. The whole process is fascinating. The end result is really a work of art. 10 out of 10, would watch again!
The final product is a work of art, the true magnificence of the blade is the master’s touch. Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed listening to the sound of the sword being forged and seeing the handling of the blade by the Blacksmith shown in the film.
на стенку только повесить для красоты - сплошная сварка, шлифовка и клейка эпоксидкой, ничего общего с реальным производством холодного оружия не имеющие
You know why I love this guy's videos? Well, first off because I learn alot but secondly, no music, no talking, no ads to speak of, no bullshit explanations. Just work. If you need this explained to you your in the wrong place.
*_Another result to be proud of!_* ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ There's not much that beats that special peace of mind working with metal and wood in this way, gives!....
Imagine everything that goes into making a sword happen. Starting with someone digging rocks out of a mountain to get a chunk of iron, then turning that into steel, then a thousand more steps to make a sword. Crazy. And this guy has modern equipment.
I don’t think I have ever seen someone forgeweld the guard onto the sword itself, must say I was a bit shocked but I am also extremely impressed!! Keep up the great work
Truly amazing craftsmanship!! the production of such an amazing piece of work/art is worth the big price. Plus knowing its not mass produced junk that falls apart immediately makes me willing to pay top dollar. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!
Amazing that it only took you 55-mins, 52-secs to make this sword. Would have taken me AT LEAST twice that long. You've got skillz brother! Liked & subscribed. I appreciate you not adding stupid music to the background. The sights & sounds of the forge... music to my ears. I can almost SMELL the workshop (go take a shower, btw... you smell). More stuff like this, PLEASE!!!
Beautiful workmanship! You are a craftsman of no mean proportions. I've seen some of your other videos, and I'm always amazed at how you can transform simple metal into works of art. I would love to have one of your swords if I could afford it. LOL
Well, what can you say? The craftsmanship here is off the scale! What a fantastic sword, I bet the panel on Forged In Fire would not want to come up against this guy!
JUST for pasión.. I did my first Sword 20 years ago without using any machine, just handmade with a File. I know, wasn’t exist GOOGLE nor RUclips to learn more. The machines could damage the piece with a simple mistake if slide of the hands, with File is more secure and exact performance.
This sword, and especially the scabbard, make me cringe. Due to how he shaped the blade using the dies on the press, the blade has no distal taper, so it is heavier than it needs to be in the blade. He has several, fairly large & thick collars on the hilt, which, while helping to counterbalance the heavy blade, also serve to make the whole sword heavier. The scabbard, however, is what really hurts. The blade cavity is not shaped to fit the blade tightly, so the sword will rattle like no one's business. The horns on the bull's head decoration are absolutely a hazard, not only to the wearer themselves, but also to anyone or anything the wearer moves past. Finally, and most disturbingly, the opening on the metal throat piece, especially since there is a cavity between the metal piece & the actual throat of the scabbard, is going to scratch that blade to hell, and dull the edge, every time it is drawn or sheathed. There is a lot of skill & technical know-how on display here, but absolutely no common sense.
@@tuckerabbott You seem to be laboring under a misconception of what the term "Distal Taper" means. It is not the difference in thickness from the spine to the edge, as your statement seems to suggest you think it to be. What it actually is, is the difference in thickness from he base of the blade to the tip. Because of the dies he used, the blade is the same thickness all the way down it's length, meaning it does not have a distal taper.
Beyond the absolutely incredible finished product, there's really something to be said about the video itself. No music, no narration, no pop-up explanations. Nobody was bombarded with Like! Subscribe! Be my Facebook buddy! Stalk me on Twitter! Buy me a pizza! and I really, really appreciate that. I have always enjoyed the sounds of a machine shop, and to just be able to listen to that without a bunch of extras, and watch this beautiful instrument take shape, makes it one of my all-time favourite RUclips videos. Well done, and beautiful work.
i love! your no-nonsense approach to making the blade. modern tooling, no useless folding of the steel, not grinding the fuller in, but just creating it with a nice powerhammer/press-tool. very awesome. i love when swords are made like tools and the process isn't as much artsy as it is driven by logic and function. and the sword still looks great! (although with the damascus pattern i'm not sure wether you just bought the steel that way or if you did some folding by yourself.....hard to say for someone with as little knowledge of the matter as me) nice craftsmanship, nice sword, nice video.
Работа завораживает. Всё проделывается чётко, аккуратно и уверенно. Меч бесподобный. Ножны замечательные. Низкий вам поклон за Работу, за это замечательное творение!
This is an amazing piece altogether. I do have some doubts about the belt lug. I’m not sure how it’s going to support the weight of the sword for a long period of time. Regardless, historically scabbards did not have a belt lug. Your sword belt would have ends that wrapped around the scabbard and braided together to encompass it like a Chinese finger trap.
no problem with that tool... boy I got to sell my house to buy that tool unfortunately. Im glad to see that enthusiasm and patience.. great work on that

And will be again
My great grandfather would just slap some sulfa on it and wrap it with the nearest type of tape, I drew the line at the sulfa though...

These are the most beautiful swords to me. its just a simple humble sword made well and with good technique. thank you for posting this
I watched for 55 minutes without ever getting bored. The result is great. I like that you pay attention to all the details.
This man's level of skill blew my mind a true Craftsman I could sit and watch him all day thanks for sharing your talent with the rest of us

As I watch this I keep thinking, you are making this all look WAY too easy. What an art. Beautiful.
Beautifully made, many adorning but also functional details. Impressive to see the variety of techniques used.

A Perfectionist.!!! Very Fine Sword.!

Умелые ручки и классные станочки...Спасибо за доставленное удовольствие.
Awesome piece. The consistently high quality of your work is astonishing.
A true masterpiece !
Your skills are awsome, and they get better over time.. Nice job!
Awesome didn't waisted my time watching your master piece I can watch it one more time.
Love your work, please don't ever stop. U r AWESOME!
Wow, finally someone more forging than grinding. Beautiful and functional. Pommel attached as it should be. Congratulations, well done.
There's something very evocative about the sound of hand forging. I could watch and listen all day.
55 min in sword making but 5 sec to view its beauty its not fairs...
You are the best master craftsman I've seen in my life. My utmost respect Sir
You know why I love this guy's videos? Well, first off because I learn alot but secondly, no music, no talking, no ads to speak of, no bullshit explanations. Just work. If you need this explained to you your in the wrong place.
i love the safety he practices! gloves, facemask, apron etc a lot of people i see grind steel and cut wood without protective eyewear
Damn dude, I love your work so much, and the format of your videos. It's very peaceful. Please keep making them, I get so much enjoyment out of them!
a new blade, a new favorite. Awesome work!
*_Another result to be proud of!_* ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
There's not much that beats that special peace of mind working with metal and wood in this way, gives!....
That is one of the nicest swords I have seen I would love to own that is there anyway
People who make these types of videos should have a "buy it now" or "order one now" button in their description. Otherwise, it's just cruel.
This is the God of Steel! Crom would be proud of him! Awesome work!!!
now this right here is some quality content. it's really hard to find good swordsmithing videos nowadays

You are TRULY a MASTER of your Craft!!!!!!!
I love watching your videos ... impeccable details always, you lead the whole process with admirable mastery and produces true works of art!
This man is a master of his craft. What a beautiful blade, well done.
You should make a threaded pommel so the weilder can end his foe rightly.
LoL. That sentence always makes me chuckle.🤣
I don’t think I have ever seen someone forgeweld the guard onto the sword itself, must say I was a bit shocked but I am also extremely impressed!! Keep up the great work
Thanks. It's something I think the old smith's would do.

SENSACIONAL! Um dia vou ter condições suficiente de montar uma oficina como está e forjar por hobby, coisas tão belas como essa espada.
Eu também penso nessa mesma coisa
I love that your actually Forge in the Fuller. Instead of a lot of what's done today when 75% of the blade is grinding. . .
Awesome! Could you look into making a war spear or a halberd next?
cucumber conflicts?!? vegetable dude : )
It truly is a pleasure to watch a master craftsman at work! Amazing job!
Wish I could own one of these masterpieces.

You have no clue do you? You get a distal taper from doing a full flat grind

How did you come up with the dimensions, did you base it on historical examples or use any particular geometry formula?
Probably Historical, as smiths of old were masters of their craft and had the measurements perfectly done.
Probably farted and made the sword right.

Glad there was no annoying music. Thanks for this cool video!
I would love to know how long it would take to forge a longsword like this without the use of a power hammer.
That will take ages)))
weeks

Does the chain wrapped around the anvil help stop ringing/vibrations when your using the anvil?
Same question, bro, already noticed that. what is it for actually?
Makes it quiter absorbs some of the shock
Yes.....Chain absorb a part of the high frequency vibrations. Some blacksmithes uses a big magnet for that reason.
