Hand forging a simple Viking knife.
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2020
- I forged this "viking" knife. I thought it was a historic design but in fact it is a design by Dutch Smith and artist Thijs Van de Manakker, he designed it in the 80s. Based on a early medieval and Roman Knife design. Since then it is made all over the world as a authentic medieval knife. Thijs Van de Manakker did allot for the historical reenactment world and deserves credit and recognition for allot of designs and historical research.

In my lifetime I've seen literally hundreds of these knives. This one is by far the nicest. Veddy good job
Definitely the nicest version of this blade that I've seen 👌
Für mich der beste Klingenschmied auf YT !! Nebenbei, überhaupt ein begnadeter Handwerker.
In the description you comment on it's a modern styling of a historical piece, but in your hands it's a timeless classic.
you are the first smith i have ever seen draw the design on the anvil like that. ive seen many use paper or even a concrete floor but right there on the anvil is so smart
I have seen almost every Blacksmith make this style of knife as blacksmith knife . But never mention the history. Really That Dutch smith Van De Mankker deserves a shout out and credit for his work
Nobody knows.
I don't believe there's any evidence of medieval knives looking anything like this. Certainly the museum catalogs I've studied do not contain any knives like this.
@Lioness of Lechistan Yup.
@@bjf10 not medieval but far earlier Celtic design Thijs van de Manakkers Facebook page has drawings form surviving pieces, most are a strait tang with a small loop at the end 1 or 2 are with the well know loop as shown here
Very good craftsmanship
Amazing work of art, this twist on the blade characterized his work. Congratulations!
This looks interesting. I can learn some good ideas from your videos too. Thank you and keep up the good work
Look at all that *hand* forging, amazing!
I’ve yet to see ya do a “bad” piece. If you’ve made any mistakes, you covered it well lol. You’re a true artist with steel, sir. Cheers from 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Beautifull piece, great hands
you sus sus
no way
One hint: Acid
The nicest version of this blade that I've seen. Well done.
Beautiful blade. Outstanding craftsmanship. Love watching your videos.
I love that style knife with the tang bent around as part of the handle!
Excellent example of craftsmanship 🏴
Very cool, I like the way the twist turned out!!! Keep it up good Sir!!! 💪🏻👊🏻👍🏻
I love your work Blacksmith
That’s why I love this channel’ always something unique and different:)
Que precioso trabajó . Felicidades
so much time and effort on perfection...
truly most of us don't know ..
thanks for sharing..
150 person don't recognize talent when they see it. This is gorgeous and every piece that I've seen so far.
Love watching that metal move under your hammer, mad skills. Salute!
Am going to be making this in my black smithing class so I'm learning ahead of time thanks mate
Absolutely Awesome, pure Class , Skill & craftmanship, Fantastic
I appreciate when I stumble on a forging video and the person is ACTUALLY forging and not just cutting a knife out of steel with the stencil they used for their shape and design.
Bloody well done! :)
I love making these! You make it look really easy though! It really takes me a couple of hours to make one. I always fiddle around with the length of the handle instead of doing it the way you did it. You left it long and just cut off the excess after bending, that worked out great! I also liked that you used thicker stock to begin with, I think that will sit in the hand better than the ones made of thinner stock! Great work as always! Cheers from the USA
WOW, WOW, FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS YOU. BEST REGARDS FROM CANADA
That is a beautiful knife, great work!
Wow, marvelous craftsmanship!
Beautiful simplicity!
Cool project! I think knowing when to stop working it so it retaines the "viking" in your finished product is a matter of faith
Extremely awesome! So well done!!!
Cool blade man. I think I’ll do one similar. Thanks man. Danke
Nice job friend, I swear by my statement to anyone I speak about knives to, the knife is by far the most important tool man ever invented and possibly was the first, Primarily used for hunting then as we got "smarter" it was used for more nefarious purposes like hunting each other, still the basic shape and basic use hasn't really changed from paleolithic/neolithic times, and it's great to see a master craftsman like yourself making these tools, keep up the good work 👍
Love the sound of that forge igniting, the muted bell clang of the hot steel hammer blows on the anvil.
PS....worthy of all anvil work. Ragnar, Lagertha, Bjorn, and Floki would be competing vigorously over this knife.
Amazing work! Can't wait to try to build one of my own.
es Increíble las cosas que se pueden lograr con un pedazo de metal e ingenio, creo que es una de las cosas más simples lindas que eh visto
You've got to be kidding me! I came up with a damn near identical design the other day. Turns out it must have come straight from the blood of my ancestors.
Great looking knife!
Regards from the north
Awesome work Mate, I wish I had you skills. 👍
Excellant work as usual!!
Sir, you are so masterful at making knives, and swords. It wouldn't suprise me to find that you sweat razor blades!
excellent interpretation of a classic! I imagine what a Karambit made in this style would be like. it would make a beautiful hybrid!
Kirk Mario no, it wouldn’t.
Karambits are useful if you like a self-limiting knife. Name one nation that conquered the world with a recurve-style blade...
@@stevesyncox9893 I say this only from an aesthetic point of view. already has a hole in the handle and I like the construction. Of course, if you don't like Karambits ...
I don’t like hybrids, only my opinion, likely came across a bit harsh. Was not the intent. Mind typeclik. Peace man.
I love this design! I want one!
Absolutely beautiful work!
What a workshop! Damn
Great knife design always thought the same as you on its timeline.
Great work there!!! 👍
Perfectly Beautiful!
Best i have seen of one of these i like how you didn't put it in the ferric chloride for to long which gave your knife a beautiful faint damascus
Que buena versión .gracias por el video
This knife is beautiful.
Never seen a vise rigged up like that to be a touchmark press, I like it and might have to borrow the idea!!
Nice really nice
Muito bom! Parabéns pela habilidade.
Wow bagus banget motif pisau nya om

Very nice knife
hermoza hoja... me encanto!!!
*Imagination to reality* 👏👏
Ficou muito bom mesmo 10
Awesome men
That is a beautiful knife there sir. The title is misleading though. That's no simple knife there. I've watched plenty of forging videos so I know that Damascus steel is no easy trick. It takes a lot of effort to make it happen. The knife is a real piece of fine art that is usable though. Great job!!!!!!! I hope one day to be able to do such a project myself. As it is I am just now starting out in my black smith endeavors but I hope to get where you are currently at one day
Hey I have another strange question for you. Dose it get hot working in the shop next to the furnace? It just seems like it would get hot in there.
A bit
Amazing 💯💯👏👏👏👏👌
love it..yeahhh💪👊🔨
1:20 looked like he was about to crack the thing in half😂
I always like your job and cteation sir...your knifes is beautiful and heavy...tebal dan cantik..
Gute Handwerkskunst!!!! Bin richtig neidisch :-)
Excellent! Do you sell what you make?
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I am curious to know where you learned the origins of this knife from. I've spent some time trying to find out more about this style of knife (it is usually referred to most often times as a blacksmith knife by smiths, at least in the u.s. anyways) and I can't seem to find any info whatsoever :/
There are some historical finds that look like it but not the same.
أستمر متابعك من العرأق تحياتي الك ❤ 💙 💚 💛 💜.
poah, das snel. weer een goede video hoop ik.
Do you make these to sell I’d be really interested in purchasing one
بصراحة رغم أنك حداد ماهر وفنان بنفس الوقت لكن هذه القطعة غير متلائمة مع بعضها بمعنى أدق أنها قطعة لا ترقى لما رأيت من قطع سابقه كنت تعملها🤗💐
