@@Fabsi87not exactly. He’s actually introducing a fair amount of carbon into the steel by using a charcoal forge. Most of the carbon will be near surface so he’s basically case hardening. But quenching will definitely have an effect.
Reinforcement bars have a very uneven carbon content, because they are made by melting together all kinds of steels, mostly mild steel but some spring- and toolsteels too. They are too brittle for fine ornamental forging but too soft for blades. I only make arrowheads from them because they are easier to forge than springsteels but a waterquench gives them a little bit of hardness, not enough too be brittle but I've seen examples of that too. This knife should have been forged out of a leaf spring instead.
As I understand it, the idea is that manufacturers don't really control carbon content that closely with rebar, so you j u s t might be lucky and find that yours does pass the file test after heat treat. On my channel there's a rebar sword video. - after making it I realised it didn't matter to me whether the rigmarole had achieved anything as I'd better not sharpen it, given that everyone who sees it wants to pick it up and look at it, so I don't keep it sharp anyway. But obviously, most people want to make a functional item and wouldn't be content with having made a mere wallhanger.
Generally speaking, you can somewhat tell if it’s harden-able by how well it sparks when you grind it. The more sparks, the better. At least that’s what I have heard while watching Forged in Fire for 9 seasons.
Looks 18 inches or more. And YES to the point about the water quench. Balls it took. So my question about that is when you quench in oil. Is the knife harder or the same as water? I never saw water quenching before. THANKS
Большой довольно грубо сделаный клинок из очень простой стали, в принципе если это просто робочий нож то вопросов нет и мастер имеет неплохой наработанные навык изготовления. Но считаю что для такого большого ножа лучше было изготовить лезвие из двух сталей, внешнюю часть например из рессоры, более гибкую и пластичную и режишюю кромку из подшипника. Это конечно намного трудоемнее но и более лутьшего качества было бы. Да и просто понаблюдать за работой было бы интереснее. Хотелось увидеть как мастер сделал бы например мачете.
Most rebar is mild steel and not hardenable. There are some types of rebar that is made of good steel that is hardenable, I’m doubtful this is that kind of steel though.
I saw what you did there, shaping that whole thing with an angle grinder. Aside from the obvious with the electricity and all, 150 years ago you would have burned for a witch. That was some pure sorcery sir, and I for one applaud your mastery of the dark arts.
Nice job, but how do you work without ear protection ? No noise-canceling headphones, and I didn't see any earplugs. The noise is hellish, take care of your health, at least you're hearing, when you lose it, you never get it back. The machine that hits metal is a dream for many blacksmiths, who do everything by hand! You're in luck ! 🤠👍
Wonder what the Carbon content of that steel he was using,, could have a very brittle knife there (water quench & no tempering) Also that groove and the "saw teeth" on the back are great stress risers, just begging to be crack initiators (particularly with brittle steel)
As always magnificent craftsmanship.
Definitely one of my favorites by your hands!
You have made a beautiful heavy chopper, well-done.
O demir parçasını ustalığınla sanatınla bu göz kamaştıran bıçağa dönüştürdüğünü izlemek çok keyifli ellerine sağlık Türkiyeden selamlar.

Beautiful piece of art, and hardwork ❤🔥👏👏👏
Asombroso dicen que no existe la perfección pero me parece que este herrero lo logró es está obra maestra 😮😮mis felicitaciones 👏👏👏👏
Best yet, superb craftsmanship.
A true master.
Wonder! Congratulations, Master! 👍👑👍
Amazing work
Very nice blade. Good work.
Sick build!
This is the best rebar knife I've seen anybody make
LOOKS LIKE THE RAMBO KNIFE.
Work of art
Gorgeous 😍
Totally awesome.
I'm here for the water quench.
I want this knife. Amazing job
That was a ballsy move doing a full quench in water…😮
Not to mention the blade's color not being even and was way too hot in a spot!
@@renegaderetiree60 Rebars are soft steel so hardening is pretty much useless.

Ya that made me hold my breath

Okay, you got me. I see you wearing them so I've kept my word...lovely grinding and hammering.....
Linda Faca Bowie. Parabéns
Super nice
That's a big ass knife! Looks awesome! Super sweet😎
Этот мужик знает толк в своём деле. Настоящий мастер🔥
Шикарный клинок😍
Только заколить забыл!!!
@@ВладШмелёв-п5з эм. На 8 минуте он водой закаливает...
Beautiful I want one
Nice work. You make it look easy. What type of wood in the scales. Nice grain. Looked really hard. Thanks.
What a hell of a knife from a Chunk of Rebar 🎥🏆👍
Nice work
I want it. You did the Best I've ever seen. Great job!
Wow! Simply wow
الو سلام برادر خوب وعالی عالی است ❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Very nice as usual 😊
A piece of art !!! Job well done
دس خوش...🙏🌹🫡🔪
Nice
This is a piece of art *-*
Damm that is one big knife. Beautiful. I would be proud to carry that one. That wood must be awful hard? Thank you.
Wicked
That is one beautiful big knife. Amazing job. 🫨👍
Very cool man 😎👍💯🔥
It can cleave skallz, as it should. Well done!
Nice! this knife is a better looking than the ones I see at stores.
Undoubtedly, but, definitely, unique, unprecedented, unparalleled, unmatched, masterpiece of art and professional workmanship.
Работа мастера!
That knife is bad ass
ایول😮🤝👌👍
To handle such a large angle grinder for such intricate work must need strength and talent
Now that's a knife
Croc' Dundee's accent!
Мощный клинок для мощного кузнеца 💪⚔️🔥
I'll take two please! :D

Most rebar isn’t hardenable, some can be. Who knows if this is.

@@philsturgill3435 Yes! And by whether the sparks it throws out subdivide in flight!
@@philsturgill3435😂 f,I,f has made everyone a blacksmith
It has some very complex sparks it's kicking out so it looks hardenable

That's not a knife, this is a knife.
Beautiful. The only thing I would change is to give it a Damascus pattern.
Rambo would approve!
I would pay good money or that awesome work.
Ωραίο μαχαίρι φίλε μου. Όμως γιατί χρησιμοποίησες νερό για βαφή και όχι λάδι;
Mick Dundee would love it
Honestly I'm more impressed that sir have 100% of beard save in all videos than knife making skill
Aside from from the belt sander i used to do exactly this with my early blades though i never used rebar simply because i didn't have a source.
Again my deepest respect can i ask you something?
Why you don't have a logo all you're creations are very special that will survive you i know.
Solid

Вся беда в том что конструкционные ст2,ст3 вообще не каляться,если конечно повезет,то может попасться сорок пятая,вот там вроде на воду можно калить
assalam alakum bro .nice job

Does rebar even harden properly?
no, it's a low carbon steel. Lot of time spent which could have been better used.
Most rebar is mild steel and not hardenable. There are some types of rebar that is made of good steel that is hardenable, I’m doubtful this is that kind of steel though.
How did you get into knife making?
❤❤❤

Thank you for your kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! More magic in the future.
Wow
beast
12:57 - That was easy. ;) Since this blade is rebar, wouldn't it easily rust?
not if you keep it properly oiled
in my experience, reinforcement bar steel suitable use salt water for quenching.
Nice job, but how do you work without ear protection ? No noise-canceling headphones, and I didn't see any earplugs. The noise is hellish, take care of your health, at least you're hearing, when you lose it, you never get it back.

Где-то тихонечко плачет Рэмбо 😢😂
Rembonu ağladan "usta" başqa bir kanaldadı😂😂
What does the motor oil do?
Either the camera is playing its tricks or the heat was very uneven before quenching.
Do you sell or knives I'd like to buy this one
Həci ❤ di
Might as well be a shortsword lol. Knife looks awesome
Какой функционал этой железяки?
- Вах как страшно???
Are they for sale?
In the end, I bet he was thinking "it will cut".
butter 😂😂😂
Я надеюсь что не ошибаюсь с маркой стали.... Это же МГ2Р? Или я не прав?
МГ2Р это "мягче говнвна в 2 раза"
As someone who has had metal in there eye you need to use some safety gear. Clear and didymium glasses\Goggles, respirator.
Getting that blade to cut is easy, put it to break something and see if it breaks under pressure would have been more interesting to see
Вот это пщак!)))
How can we purchase your work?
What type of rebar?
When did he temper it?
