So glad that you like my anvil designs! Hope everything goes well this weekend with the new forge.
Bro. You have a furnace kiln right there beside the press. And you're heat treating in your forge? This is why you're my favorite bladesmith on RUclips.
There are more skills taught in this hour of video than most other videos combined.
Also I'm blacksmith not bladesmith but I appreciate good highly skilled bladesmiths. I plan on eventually making some knives too.
I'm also left eye dominate and right handed. Makes shooting guns more interesting.
This is a very generous Blacksmith. I learned so much textbook stuff watching this than I have ever learned from all other videos combined. Also, I'm learning old-school, which is the pure smithing ways. Forge a knife, don't forge a f**ing billet just to cut a knife shape out of it after whacking it a few times to just thin it out... This guy is doing it right. The BEST way to learn.
Thank you, Neil. I really appreciate what you've done and continue to do. Many will go on to forge the right way thanks to the generosity of your teachings.
Thanks for this. I appreciate the time and explanations as you progress. And the pace was really good. A lot of videos are rushed to just get out content. I really liked the details on the "hows" and "whys" of what you do. Looking forward to part 2! Oh and the history! We definitely need more on your great grandfather!
Really appreciate it as producing these videos take time. The more people tune in and subscribe, will help us produce more! Part 2 coming out soon! Mahalo for watching!
You are a sensei-tional blacksmith! That cross hatch peen is rad! Your spot on with the movement of the steel!
Dude you are now my favorite blade smith on RUclips it's just like hanging out in the garage with my buddies fuc'n around drinking beer having fun just hanging out
these are absolutely my favorite types of videos. I always learn so much watching you forge
It’s always amazing to hear one of the best knife makers alive to say he’s mediocre… humbleness and humility at its finest.
Your "little bites" advice is right on, and as you say applies equally to presses, power hammers, and peening. Thanks!
Good video. I've been a fan since forged in fire, and you explaining the step by step processes should open eyes to what goes into each knife you produce 👍
Im a little upset. i haven't got any of the notifications or seen these new (to me) video series. But im also expected because i now have hours of great content to study.
Your chief knife series helped me out so much with my technique. Keep crushing brother
Master Kamimura, Love your work! You are truly an inspiration.
...dude, thank you for the post, always absolutely appreciated.
(...there are so many reasons I'm glad that your channel "popped up" in my "feed". Forging, blacksmithing, actually working with a forge is one of the things that I'm hoping that I'll be able to find/make my way to one of these days, years, decades... and so once again, thank you for the posts of prayers of simplicity.,...
Once again, absolutely appreciated.)
We live in an incredible time where RUclips is full of fabulous content for the amateur blacksmith and knife maker.
There is something about your personality and humanity that I can't quite put my finger on that makes you head and shoulders above the rest of a very fine field.
I like the fact that we can get your bladesmithing prescriptions without a subscription.
He is humble, honest and reflective. He had a very hard childhood from what I can tell, there is a video about it on RUclips. Still he came out "forged" as a masterpiece 😌
Love that you have stayed real and humble brotha, it's like a chill session just doing your thing having a good time.
Dude I really enjoy wayching the full process .
Love to see your katan build start to finish like I was standing beside you.
Great stuff 👏
Hey Neil, thanks for continuing to share your knowledge. I remember speaking with you at the Ameribrade booth at Blade Show this year and appreciate you taking the time to chat! Keep up the inspiring work and engaging with all the people in the knife making community.
This video is oddly calming. I follow your IG but man this long form content is 🔥
This Subscription is the Prescription. Mahalo for sharing, Brah🤙🤙
It's amazing to see how Nakiri is made from start to end. What a great video.
Wow, i relate to you so much about forging tongs haha. Thanks for this video. Inspired me a lot and i learned a ton!
Man your shop is great, your hammer skills are superb, and I love the forge table. The barrel for reading the color of the steel is a great idea. Learning loads from you, got my sub.
Mahalo!
Thank you for sharing all this knowledge. It has been instrumental in transforming my blade forging skills. The more you forge, the less you grind! And I HATE grinding.
When you’re chill the learning is so much easier - thanks for sharing your story and knowledge
Also, being left eye dominant and right-handed, I know exactly what he's talking about. Knife making is the silver lining for this situation lol. Great video series Neil I always learn alot from your stuff. God bless
Amazing video. Truly enjoyed watching the full process. Top notch channel.
That guy is so calm it’s scary! Doesn’t seem to rush just nice and steady.
Love your work man and that hosoi hanging in the background is mint
Another great video T, love these type of videos , Thank you Man👍
It would most definitely be interesting to hear about you’re great grandfather.
your
Another beautiful video!! Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!! Props to your filmer/editor too!
Thanks for watching!
Love the long format! You’re so chill it’s great to watch your videos not only to learn but just to unwind before bed. Love you story from forged in fire, god bless brother.. Thank you for your time
Yes Neil, been waiting for this, really appreciate this and all your work man. 🗡
please keep producing this kind of video sir.
Looooooove this kind of long form content and the detailed explanation.
Can't wait to see this completed. I made a Damascus san mai nakiri earlier this year, where I got everything all welded and got it drawn out, then did stock removal to actually make the knife (I wanted it ultra-thin and didn't trust myself to keep the 1095 centered if the thickest part of my material was
Tons of quality knowledge, thanks!
That little detail on upsetting the choil... stoked, i have been trying to work that out for about 2 years- now i got a chance to make it work. Thank you!
The “Little bites” philosophy applies to hand tool woodworking as well. I call them “sharks teeth”. Its more for material removal.
Dammit, before I started the vid I thought “No way I’m watching an hour video” then you kept dropping good knowledge and I couldn’t stop watching😂
I'am a bladesmiths and blacksmith so what you said explains why I kick my own backside😆😆. Thanks for sharing your wisdom with us all godbless and be safe.
Neil makes me want to pick up the hammer again in some type of way. Last 100 knives ive done have been pretty much stock removal cause its tedious and bevels are much harder to do freehand with. Its a giod challenge but forge is bare roots. Love it
Is it master or professor? Artist with metal, heat, and hammer. All the other knife forging channels I see grind rather than take the time to shape with the hammer. Don’t make knives, but cutting a lot of onions for canning lately and I have experienced your comment about the importance of the knife tip. 😂
Anyone using the term "distal taper" gets my vote. Nakiris are really awesome in the kitchen.
The video format and the way you show and explain everything is really good... I learned a lot!
Thanks for these longer format videos. I really appreciate you sharing some of your knowledge and experience with us!
I appreciate that you watch! 🤙🏽
Great video, I really appreciate the long format instructional videos plus the banter keeps me laughing. I learn something every time I watch one of your videos. The fact that you do these and aren’t begging people to pay you money (like some other well known smiths) shows that you care about the craft and the people. I will always watch unless you make me get a prescription 😂😂😂
Your punch plate that swivels off the pritchal hole is brilliant
I am no smith in any way, but I love watching you while beeing creative in other ways like writing 😌🍃
Thank you so much for sharing all of your videos
Thank you! Absolutely awesome information. Can't wait for more. You make me want to forge again.
I always get a good takeaway on your vids. Thanks man. ❤ Black Smiths are a talented people. My close friend is a Black Smith, and when he started making knives the knives were so well forged you barley had to finish the knives on a belt grinder. Their skills are truly amazing.
love this type of videos and love your work
Awesome video, as usual. I always learn so much watching and listening to you. It's very generous of you to share your procedures and techniques - appreciate it very much!
Appreciate your tips. Thanks for putting these videos out explaining the process.
Thanks Neil. Great video. Showing the whole process including the little stuff is really helpful.
Thank you for watching! And of course to help us produce more...subscribe, like and share! 🙏🏽
Thanks for another great video.
That’s anvil is 🔥🔥🔥. So quiet.
Atlas Knife and Tool. Specialty anvils, forges and burners. Very personable small business in Iowa with some YouTude content. Sold direct or through a few vendors. Newer version of this anvil has swage cuts on the edges of the base.
I am impressed how thin you got that 1 inch round. I like working rounds and dont have any form of power hammer or press...so it takes me a couple hours to do it by hand. also going to have to modify my hammering techniques a bit again as I learned from you thank you.
Love watching your videos man
This was cool to see. Looking forward to the rest
Nice work as always. 🤟🏼
This was fascinating to watch, loved every minute of it. Now gotta watch the rest of the series 🤙
Thanks Neil, i really enjoy watching you forge. Also i'm totally using that finger choil trick ;)
AWESOME WORKMANSHIP!!! Love your channel. I've learned so much by watching you & listening to you. Keep up this awesome channel 👏
It’s the fine details that matter. Well done. Thank you for that information.
bro , mad respect
Great video! Thank you!
Thanks for sharing your craft and your outlook. 🙏
Wow soooooo much to learn from your style. Thank you for sharing!!!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙏🏽
Awesome work, great instruction on techniques ty from Australia
Thanks for sharing! Great information and pointers.
You were a badass in the show forged in fire awesome knife maker as well
Lovin it bra! Keep um commin!!
Fixing warping blades makes me think of fixing warps or oil canning in sheet metal/body work. Seams like the same principle of warping caused by stretched metal and needing to be shrunk.
Very cool. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
I like watching your videos. The ideas and the helpful info you give out is awesome!!! I have never forged but have always wanted to, being a certified welder, you help give me the confidence to get started.
i've been waiting for another long form video like this from you. super excited to see this release.
Awesome thank you
You’re my prescription 😂😂
These are inspirational as F*%@!!! Thanks for making these vids!
Forge On!!!
I always pick up tips when watching that make a huge difference.
Full of great content thank you sir
"lets not swear in this videos"
*proceeds to create a new record for swearing in youtube videos * xD
This is a FORGED IN FIRE CHAMPION, PAY ATTENTION and learn something. His "shop" back then was his back yard. He's been growing.
Totally agree with you about the flat dyes drawing out the billet. Here's an idea i got from another F.I.F
Champ: Elijah from Firecreek, he drilled holes in the edge and filled them with roller bearings, well, it kinda worked for what he was trying, but, mild steel was still between the roller bearings and ended up on the edge of the blade. I propose, an artistic approach, drill on the flat, specifically sized and placed holes, filled with different carbin content steel for different shades of grey, make a pixelary/dot matrix "photo" in the side of the blade. I think you could accomplish this, can't be much more time consuming than some of these mosaic patterns out there.
So talented, inspiring my man! All about the little details. 🙏
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skill ❤🗡️🔪⚔️⚒️
I love the work you do man.... I'm trying to get a place set up to start making knives at home and your system is like a martial art to me. Love it!
Mayjah 🙌🏾🙌🏾 Going Viral bahdah 🤙🏾
First video of yoursi've watched and Love your explanations thru your work. I am subscribed now.
Grinding is like the taxes of knifemaking. You gotta do it, but we are all trying to do as little as possible.
I just subscribed to your prescription cause I dig what your doing
😂😂😂... Mahalo! 🤙🏽
Yes please
Time 7:14 pm. Suns still out. It is 1:14 am here
Very nice!
Man what I’d give to be in this shop for a weekend
Wouldn’t call your self a mediocre knife maker. I do understand what your saying about the talent out there. I know my place as knifemaker is nothing to yours lol but I think your an amazingly humble unique knife maker. Your awesome personality shows in your work. Love the video make some more .
Lol, I've got the same thermocouple 😛. I love your videos man! 🤙
Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Glad it was helpful!
