Rail steel axes and knives are the most perfect rolled products, since they have been crushed by cold rolling under weights for years, extremely efficient products can be made... thanks for your work, nice work.
ok, I am new to your Chanel. but you my friend are a big inspiration to me and the young men that have adopted my shop to learn blacksmithing and other shop crafts. thank You
Fabulous job. Nothing is more satisfying than making something then getting to use it for just about everything it looks like. Thank you for sharing the journey of this project.

Fantastic job my man! I'm sure other people have already said it, but after a long day of terrifying and pillaging nearly every town/village along the Mediterranean, you can always chop up a quick salad! 😁
While it looks good I’m curious on the strength and how well that edge will stay in place since I didn’t see much forge welding going on. I would love to see it put through Viking style stuff to see how well it will hold up
It was made from a piece of rail. All razor blades are made from rail because after years and millions of tons. The metal has been transformed into something no human working a forge can do. The size of the hatchet is my only issue but I understand that the bigger one would have taken a good amount of time, working with that much of the hardest steel on the planet. I would bet that edge will hold far longer than anything manufactured for the public. I just did something similar with a Vulcan splitting hatchet. It will be dull and relegated to the wood shed or broken in some way, before he has to hone this blade. I stuck around because I new there would be a need for an explanation of rail steel. The project was ruined for me at first sight of the bun. So go ask someone who is related to the feild of. Metallurgy and they can explain the molecular changes that rail goes through. I don't teach I do.
I agree. Yeah rail is the best worked steel available for cheap o made my anvil from it, but this guy messed up the second he cut that flat bar in half he shoulda just shaped it . Harder work but would be way more reliable.
I like his stuff.. but not enough work was done on the forge weld.. that big open cheak was poor . Also never seemed hot enough when hardening and when shaping the original bit of rail the metal wasnt hot enough ... nice wall peice but would not trrust it
@@desertsmeagol7073 yeah, thanks guys. I read the description now again. It was the blade insert. I need to say a bit of crude job with a lot of imperfections...
Questionable forge weld as it seems there was nothing to inhibit scale from forming between the materials but otherwise nice work on this good looking axe
Years ago I made a mistake of using tempered steel to make a chisel. I heated it up, made my point the way I wanted, heated it again and then quenched it in water. It looked really nice for the work I put in it, but when I went to use it, it shattered on me. I didn't get hurt, but I did learn a valuable lesson.
He doesn't show how many times he repeated each process, I can see what you mean though but if you look at the next shot he's definitely worked it more than we saw
Es gibt so viele peinliche Schmiedeversuche auf RUclips. Bei dir ist das anders. Alles, was ich mir bisher von dir angesehen habe ist, trotz "erster Versuche" ziemlich perfektionistisch und gut gemacht. Hochachtung vor deiner Leistung. Ich schmiede selbst hobbymäßig und kenne die Herausforderungen. Deshalb: großes Lob!
Really enjoyed the video as always. It looks like you might have some delaminations between the bit and the rest of the stock. Maybe it just looks like that in the video?
I have made several more traditional method axes in Sweden, ie, less belt sanders and a longer shaft with a heavier end for better balance, but still not bad
Very cool! I so love your video about knives and forging. It powerful and calmly, difficult and accessibly, gravely and funny. Especially I like test with vegetables) very beautiful and aesthetically pleasing.
You are absolutely right, but i think it might be the camera or lighting that makes it seem less than red hot, I've noticed it in more forging videos on RUclips. Not sure though
I feel like all your projects are just pure awesome. But this one is…One Of A Kind. Your craftsmanship is top notch. I just love your videos. Well done Sir. I wish i could shake your hand. Well done again
Nice project. But at 7:40 I can see that the forge weld between mild and high carbon steel is not properly done, as I am ABS Master Smith, by watch too much Forge In Fire.....
I've been a bookmaker for 35 years. This black smithing impresses. Me
I was just in the kitchen looking at my utensils thinking I need a Viking axe in here, and this video shows up in my feed, go figure. Nice job BBP
One of the most talented people on the internet love your work brother
I don't know why, but I can't help but squealing "world's tiniest power hammer" every time you use it. It's just so dang cute!
It gets the job done! 😏
Shurap's is smaller I think
Thank you for taking the time to show how it performs.
This is awesome! Very clever way to bond the pieces too, not easy to do without the talent and a deep understanding of metal work. Thanks for sharing!

I'd make the salad before the slaughter...
@@LinusGustafsson exactly! Who TF wants blood in their salad?
Every time he does those tests with tomatoes I wonder if he eats them off camera. I know I would.
👍😁Beautiful work
Watching you progress over the years has been a wonderful journey. Hard to believe the skills you’ve learned. Hope to see many more years 👍
ok, I am new to your Chanel. but you my friend are a big inspiration to me and the young men that have adopted my shop to learn blacksmithing and other shop crafts. thank You
I didn't notice the insert was Damascus until near the end. I see it now in the description though. Lovely axe, well done.
Fabulous job. Nothing is more satisfying than making something then getting to use it for just about everything it looks like. Thank you for sharing the journey of this project.
Gorgeous axe, amazing work you do. I appreciate people who do beautiful viking axes.
One helluva showing on crafting a bearded Axe. Excellent job!
Always love to see tools that you've built / restored being used.
I was so scared for your draw knife hitting the vise you should make a "shaving horse" for clamping and carving shafts
That'd be a fun project. DIY shaving horse.

Спасибо за видео черная борода. Отличный маленький топор получился. Бородач. В этот раз после бритья ноги не хлопал лодошкой...
Excelente trabajo artesanal... muyyyyyyy bueno 👌🏻... saludos atte desde la Patagonia norte Argentina 🇦🇷
I just saw a few of your videos u got skills. I wish I had the knowledge and tools kudos to u show us more !!!
That is a hybrid hatchet by San Mai(三枚) technique and Damascus steel.
Awesome!
Браво мастер!! Спасибо , это произведение искусства!!!
Наконец что-то годное!Зачем оно надо правда, но плюсец поставил.
Согласен.
Fantastic job my man! I'm sure other people have already said it, but after a long day of terrifying and pillaging nearly every town/village along the Mediterranean, you can always chop up a quick salad! 😁
That's the best handle making I've seen so far, gj
You are the professional man ever
Such a genuine pleasure to watch these.
Nice work man 👍😊 I think you need bigger powerhammer 😁
He doesn't necessarily need a bigger one, He can however fit it with a heavier Ram with a little bit of modification
@@KageStelhman the piston, of the power hammer is not that strong
You can never have a big enough power hammer.
bro no one better try to rob his house this dude has a whole storage of weapons
Thanks for sharing, love your projects. Now you have universal tool, I would also make a roast with potatoes)
I love that mini planer too. Wish I had one myself.
Such a pleasure to watch. A craftsman
Wow Vikings were really ahead of their time

Maybe I am not clear: what's Damascus in that hatchet? I don't see layering and lamination.
4:40
I'm not too sure either lmao but I suppose that piece of metal was from a previous Damascus billet where he inserts it for the edge
And if u go to 7:41 u can see him etching it
@@desertsmeagol7073 yeah, thanks guys. I read the description now again. It was the blade insert.
I need to say a bit of crude job with a lot of imperfections...
Very cool little axe.
Would be super useful for cabin life 👍
Finalmente, ritorna il taglio dei peli
That's the new multi function kitchen tool !
Congratulations. Excellent work. Seen the video several times, yet not get bored or tired. Keep it up.
Молодец... Кортик, военно- морской Кортик... Вот вещь!!!!
Been wanted see a Viking hatchet been made by you awesome job mate keep up good work from Australia
In every great weapon there is a great weapon smith

Another beauty my friend, love the work you put in.
Nice and light weight and good for bush craft ! Wow !!!! Really nice 👍🏻🤠👍🏻✌🏻 !!!!
this might be your best produced video to date. well done, really enjoyed this one.
Spectacular Damascus Vikings Hatchet !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great little axe. Saw comments about temps for forging and everything was right on track. Thanks for sharing your video.
Great forging man. Lot of love all forging methods
Beautiful axe and don't haven't seen many that well balanced. Maybe its just personal preference, but mine the beard on mine was pointed.
That is actually so cool. Keep up the good work man!
I know video is deceiving but your steel didn’t look hot enough to get a good forge weld. But nice job
I am of the same opinion.
From all the videos I've watched, if it gets to hot, there's a chance of the steel warping
He doesn't show how many times he repeated each process, I can see what you mean though but if you look at the next shot he's definitely worked it more than we saw
Agreed. He likes to bang on cold steel from the video.

One beautiful piece of useful craftsmanship. Someday I'll make one too
Dovrei studiare per la maturità....
Ma adoro i tuoi video
Che bravo. I tuoi video sono sempre molto interessanti
You made a bearded, hafted ulu! That's some great craftsmanship as usual.
With a friction fit eye that will be unstoppable.
Really enjoyed the video as always. It looks like you might have some delaminations between the bit and the rest of the stock. Maybe it just looks like that in the video?
One of the first multi-tool.
I have made several more traditional method axes in Sweden, ie, less belt sanders and a longer shaft with a heavier end for better balance, but still not bad
The perfect hatchet for a traditional carpenter :-)))
Excellent craftsmanship.

Always amazing and awesome workpieces 👍
Your works just amaze me, dude.
The frifri mini is back ♥️♥️♥️
...good job. looks great, stay safe...
That’s a great axe and interesting to see the Damascus pattern in the R /R track steel
love the new forge. it looks really cool
Actually, it’s really hot…thank you. I’m here all week ;-)
you let your metal go too cold when hammering, that will cause micro fractures in the metal.
Always hammer it red hot.
He seems to have a pretty successful channel, and im not saying you're wrong, but I think the dude knows what he's doing.
You are absolutely right, but i think it might be the camera or lighting that makes it seem less than red hot, I've noticed it in more forging videos on RUclips. Not sure though
Harika bir işçilik yapmışsınız ellerinize sağlık.👏👏👏👍🇹🇷
I always enjoy your craftsmanship. Your axe is beautiful.
Beautiful axe viking. Good hob!!
Looks absolutely amazing
It never occurred to me how the hole in the hatched was made. I learned something new.
But it isn't the real way of makinh hole in axe,hatchet or something similar to it
Brilliant work ✌️
Wow, very nice job, thanks

Incredible.
Awesome video and thank you for making it ❤️ 👍
Nice project. But at 7:40 I can see that the forge weld between mild and high carbon steel is not properly done, as I am ABS Master Smith, by watch too much Forge In Fire.....
I'm by no means an expert, but isn't some kind of flux needed when forge welding? That's what I see on other videos.
Always love to see original work...it's a beautiful piece...it would be great to see a leather "sheath" for it.
Now that's a proper weapon.
you are definitely Awesome friend, i have learned many things from you, i hope if i can be like you
Fine craftsmanship, you made an awesome throwing ax!
Thumbnail : perfect balanced
A train is derailing somewhere as he makes his bearded hatchet
Hopefully the victims from the wreck will enter Valhalla
Excellent work. Definitely worthy of a Viking warrior's hand!
