So, apparently Pink is an option for Dykem colors. I'm now imagining a prank war that'll go on in the shop between the two of them, and ROFL at the outcome.
@@deand8070 still 1000% better than another youtuber who was on step 9 and hasn't made a video in the past 6 months - won't say who but was creating The Antikythera Mechanism ( 9 steps in 2 years sad )
Does Will have any experience with using a coke forge? Alec started out doing exclusively coke forging but I can't imagine that it would be very fair if Will doesn't know how they work. They seem awfully tricky if you don't know what you're doing.
@asdasd asdasd - not actually sure that's a 'furry', because when you look at the picture close up there's no fur, the 'tail' seems to not be attached to the body and looks more like a beanbag or something, and the ears also resemble a costume piece more than anything else. Even if you assume the tail and ears are a part of the character, the general consensus is that merely having a tail and ears (eg catgirl, wolfgirl, etc style) isn't actually enough to qualify as a furry. But this character doesn't even seem to be that. So... Eh. XD Cute cat by the way. ;p
Absolutely love these versus episodes. No quest for perfection, just to guys beating their steel into submission ... ok that doesn't sound very nice, but you get my point! Good work.
I never understood why forged in fire would wait so long to temper the blades. There is a lot of internal pressure that can crack a blade if you wait too long.
I think they temper them off camera. On the Beat the Judges special they showed that they have tempering ovens in the warehouse they use for filming. So they probably have them temper in there before putting handles on them. Will would always say that now that the blades are heat quenched and tempered, it's time to put a handle on them. So they most likely just temper off camera.
Okay, honestly these are some of my favorite videos you make. I love the concept and it's great seeing how the two of you interact and yet have such different ideas! Team Steele btw
Yaaaaaasss! WvA is back! No more long breaks or blades cut out by water jets! Make forging great again! Sorry that was a lot of !’s. I’m just really excited for a WvA episode.
Alec steele is the channel i originally followed but i want stelter to get this win. They are awesome together I hope they never have a falling out. Excellent duo bro's 😎🤙
Awww, as soon as i saw khukri in the title, i thought you were going to spend 20 episodes making my absolute Dave type of blade. I'm glad you're making a khukri, but i do wish you'd make a much more fancy giant product. Looking forward to part two though!!!
Love to see the Little giant getting so much love! Tiny power hammer...so much feel! As a shade tree smith I am a little freaked you got that bad of warps after that many cycles.
I bet they're not willing to risk their credibility on Forged in Fire, it has been known to "RUIN" the careers of lesser known smiths, but with the work these guys have turned out in the past people know they make high quality blades... BUT IT WOULD BE AWESOME if they did and it's about TIME!
Love the new Paragon oven.....with an oven that big you can make much longer swords. An Irish Ring Long Sword would be a great sword that you and Will can put your own spin on
Alec!!!! We need more Mokume-Gane experimentation! Apparently Mokume can be performed with more than 2 metals at once (ie: Gold, Platinum, Iron)! I'd love to see what you and Will can do in a tri-material blend.
I am extremely excited for the next step of the kukri's, but I am even more excited what will come from the new heat treating oven! I love this channel, keep up the good work!
So I asked my son out of all the makers on you tube and we watch many of them, "who is the most entertaining ?" And we both unanimously agreed it is you guys. Well done keep it up don't mess with your formula!
I had an interesting idea, Damascus made from only mild steel stock, the trick here is processing half of the stock in a specific way before forge welding; what you'd want to do here is to carburize or case harden half of the stock thus providing an incredibly thin layer of high carbon steel.
I like how paragon was like “ Let us show y’all the correct way to ship equipment” such as your mill and lathe that we’re both damaged. Seems like a good sponsor to have !!
A two handed kukri was mentioned by Stelter and I had instant hopes of seeing someone make the Armadyl Godsword from Runescape. I have suggested all of the Godsword styles and even the old school Runescape Godsword with interchangeable handles to many smiths on youtube and have yet to see one come through. Maybe you guys could get Jagex's support/sponsorship to use that nice big new oven you got for hardening some life sized Godswords.
This is a great channel. I don't normally say things like this on RUclips channels, but it's captivating. When I saw Will break the sword-breaker blade, I actually called my wife in. She looked at me like I was crazy. Could you make a warhammer? Carry on making awesome tools and weapons!
I'd really love to see these guys do this segment (steele vs stelter) like once a week or biweekly, definitely more often than they currently do know. Love seeing how they both attack a build with different ideas to achieve the same end result. Keep it up lads.
You guys need to both make a giant, balanced, sharp, beautiful chopping knife and sign up for "knife or death" on TV. And wear your VS. shirts on the show and run that course over!
Now...you need to build a raised platform to go with the new Paragon Oven...to ease the loading process...I would if I got that oven...lol I hope y'all have a great day & be safe.
That was a real fun episode, I love it when you guys give yourself some challenges like that. And there's not that much more challenging then Forged in Fire 3 hours blacksmithing. If they don't invite you one of those days, which they really should now that you moved to the US. It'd be interesting to you two tackle some of their harder challenge like a canister damascus from random steel sources. We've seen you dealing with damascus pretty often, so I think it'd be nice to see how you'd tackle it in that scope. But hey, no worries if you don't either. Your videos are always a good time ^.^
I love how Alec can just sense whenever Red Dycem is being used in the workshop.
"Satan's Dykem". ROFL!!
If he doesn't want red used, don't buy it. lol
So, apparently Pink is an option for Dykem colors. I'm now imagining a prank war that'll go on in the shop between the two of them, and ROFL at the outcome.
@@TheBottegaChannel better yet get a bottle of blue Dykem, clean it out with brake cleaner good and put red or pink Dykem in it! 🤣
SATANS DYCAN!!! YEET!
Looking forward to part 17 of 2.
😂😂
I thought calling it Part 1 of 2 was optimistic.
@@deand8070 still 1000% better than another youtuber who was on step 9 and hasn't made a video in the past 6 months - won't say who but was creating The Antikythera Mechanism ( 9 steps in 2 years sad )
That joke is getting old.
@@johnydeepthroat
YOU'RE getting old! 😄
*Upsets metal*
*Metal starts stress eating*
Alec: I have upset it to fatten it
Metal: *Visibly Upset*
Opticlash0.2 I see what you did there 😂😂😂
HA HA HA HA!
Metal, sobbing with a tub of ice cream in hand: **incoherent mumbling**
I love it, that's amazing 👏
Love these pure forging vids.
Hey Alec and Will, how about a primitive blacksmithing versus video? :) charcoal and hammers and files! :p
TheFilipinoKnight that would be amazing. I loved the hand made knife video
Does Will have any experience with using a coke forge? Alec started out doing exclusively coke forging but I can't imagine that it would be very fair if Will doesn't know how they work. They seem awfully tricky if you don't know what you're doing.
@@giggityguy he has to. He's been to countless hammer ins and such and should have enough experience to run a solid fuel forge.
@@katrinalundberg4228 It wouldn't surprise me, I just don't know one way or the other
...and bloomery steel for the extra challenge?
Can you please make brownies in one of your paragon ovens just to prove the temperature control
Bet my entire paycheck Alec ends up putting some sort of gem in his.
Yeah sure, I’ll take that bet ;)
Plottwist: he is unemployed ;) :P
When does Will acquire himself a space-suit for the grinding room?
When he has proved himself
Yikes, diaper furry
When he stops using red Dycem.
The mask is $1,300 soo might be a while haha
@asdasd asdasd - not actually sure that's a 'furry', because when you look at the picture close up there's no fur, the 'tail' seems to not be attached to the body and looks more like a beanbag or something, and the ears also resemble a costume piece more than anything else.

So... Eh. XD
Cute cat by the way. ;p
The kukri that Alec has designed looks more like a bolo.
@@alifesh alec needs to prepare for his honeymoon
lapu lapu ftw
Yup - A kukuri has an angled spine which is a MUST or not a kukuri
it actually reminds me a lot of a period accurate kopis in some ways
Bolo or parang but not kukri
Absolutely love these versus episodes. No quest for perfection, just to guys beating their steel into submission ... ok that doesn't sound very nice, but you get my point! Good work.
I died a little when I saw red dykem but my boy Alec’s dykem sense kicked in and he saved the day!
"Hydrate or Diedrate". I want a shirt.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH SATANS DYCEM?!" I lost it here.
Im still hoping for a Steele vs Stelter: Spoons edition
That, & an epic series of making the most awesome Damascus spoon ever.
The most deadly weapon
Spoons are still legal in the Uk so Alec won’t make them. But how about some potato peelers
Me too!!!
I never understood why forged in fire would wait so long to temper the blades. There is a lot of internal pressure that can crack a blade if you wait too long.
Because shattering blades makes ratings go brrrrrrr!
I think they temper them off camera. On the Beat the Judges special they showed that they have tempering ovens in the warehouse they use for filming.

Team Steele btw
Team Stelter btw
It’s so good to have Steele vs stelter again.
I think with the new heat treating oven it’s time for another claymore. Extra challenge, do it in feather damascus, because that would be badass.
Alec: alright so i’ve got my design laid out its about 20” long
Will: so i’ve decided i’m actually going to make a small sword
on another note: can we pleeeease get a damascus poleaxe/halberd?
I would love to see them make a pole arm
Ohhh yess
Yaaaaaasss! WvA is back! No more long breaks or blades cut out by water jets! Make forging great again! Sorry that was a lot of !’s. I’m just really excited for a WvA episode.
YES! I've been waiting for a S v S forged in fire episode!
I'm always so damn proud watching you two lads, as if you were my own. High five to the parents. Good seed.
I was hoping for more Steele vs Stelter and have always wanted you to make a kukri! Christmas came early
0:18 especially since, as I recall, he poured coffee over not one but two laptops in one move.
I love that you guys have a competitions and you always help each other with the others work. A person can learn a lot from you guys 😃
Alec steele is the channel i originally followed but i want stelter to get this win. They are awesome together I hope they never have a falling out. Excellent duo bro's 😎🤙
6:53-7:07 I feel like there's some good meme material here...
"Satan's dykem" should be on a shirt :D
That new paragon oven is gorgeous!
I think this may be the fastest I've clicked on my notifications 😂
They should go to Nepal, and see what they do there.
Awww, as soon as i saw khukri in the title, i thought you were going to spend 20 episodes making my absolute Dave type of blade. I'm glad you're making a khukri, but i do wish you'd make a much more fancy giant product. Looking forward to part two though!!!
You should make a series where you cook in the paragon oven's
Love to see the Little giant getting so much love! Tiny power hammer...so much feel! As a shade tree smith I am a little freaked you got that bad of warps after that many cycles.
I AM SO HYPED FOR THIS!!! I was wondering when Steele vs Stelter would move into full projects!
Glad to see you bring back the S v S and with my favorite knife design.
What ever you do... Make this a series.
You guys should try some of the forged and fire challenges done in the show.
Also... Try out for the show!!!
Steele vs Stelter is already a series :)
@@renealbrechtsen9743 I know. I meant Steele v Stelter forged in fire challenges
I bet they're not willing to risk their credibility on Forged in Fire, it has been known to "RUIN" the careers of lesser known smiths, but with the work these guys have turned out in the past people know they make high quality blades... BUT IT WOULD BE AWESOME if they did and it's about TIME!
@@macgyver5108 Agreed. I always thought that going on the show mighty have been a risk. But they should be able to shrug it off.
Stelter has gotten a lot more comfotable with Alec's processes and personality, I love it!
HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA “WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH SATAN’S DYKEM” this had me laughing for like ten minutes good job will
SATAN'S DYKEM!
Edit: Can we get satan's dykem shirts with like a dykem bottle with a cute face on it like them mugs?
Can’t wait to see these beastly blades finished!
Yes. Fire and hammer. Glad to be back to basics
That Paragon oven is da bomb! Super fast.
We should do a collaboration! We are in the same town!
Love the new Paragon oven.....with an oven that big you can make much longer swords. An Irish Ring Long Sword would be a great sword that you and Will can put your own spin on
I love every trip to the grinding room is a awesome jam session
Alec!!!!
We need more Mokume-Gane experimentation! Apparently Mokume can be performed with more than 2 metals at once (ie: Gold, Platinum, Iron)! I'd love to see what you and Will can do in a tri-material blend.
Alec is just way to good at those beautiful bolsters
Paragon stuffs looks awesome!!!
Normalizing in the forge? How barbaric. 😂
Something very exciting has happened!
I've had a haircut!
Steele vs Stelter is back?! Yessss
I am extremely excited for the next step of the kukri's, but I am even more excited what will come from the new heat treating oven! I love this channel, keep up the good work!
Looking good. Love the integral guard Alec
Kukuri #2, Can't wait to see them finished!!!!
I miss this channel being this good.
I'm 100% Mexican, I was born in Azcapotzalco I am a CHINTOLOLO! Greetings and thanks!!!
yes, YES, YES!!! More Steele vs Stelter please!
Alec got a much better start to his Kukri with upsetting it but I like Will’s plan for his with the two handed design and the general shape.
That new oven is ridiculous! I can’t wait to see the projects that come out of it.
Two incredibly talented craftsman. Thanks for continuing to inspire and share.
Stelter vs. Steele! My Favorite!
Alec with the hammer flip skills
We need more steele v stelter in our lives
Pretty sweet seeing the ACE branded garbage bin turned to perfect view.
I love the kukri style blade. Cuts very good
I like how Will explains that he designed his kukri to be... well, a kukri, then Alec proudly shows off his smatchet.
Heck ya! I love the lightness and fun the two of you bring to the table each day!
I love the googly eyes on the power hammer cylinder.
So I asked my son out of all the makers on you tube and we watch many of them, "who is the most entertaining ?" And we both unanimously agreed it is you guys. Well done keep it up don't mess with your formula!
1) My second favorite knife
[I have to admit that the super practical chefs knife I use twice a day must come first]
2) The competitions are fun
We really need an armour build series!
Paragon heat treating ovens are the deal. Thanks for the great video.
I could tell who forged what in the thumbnail on this one Alec’s hammer skills really stood out on this one with the integral guard
Paragon is so freaking awesome
The kukris look awesome! You guys should do a Falcata build. Basically same shape but with a swords reach... Cool stuff!
You're both amazing craftsman!
Awesome! I was really hoping that next episode of Steele vs Stelter would be Forged in Fire style and I'd love to see plenty of these in the future.
Wow these guys from paragon treat you well! Amazing ovens! Beaauutiful
I had an interesting idea, Damascus made from only mild steel stock, the trick here is processing half of the stock in a specific way before forge welding; what you'd want to do here is to carburize or case harden half of the stock thus providing an incredibly thin layer of high carbon steel.

Awesome, I really like those. I would really like to see you dedicate a series to one.
Gratz on the new coffee machine
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH SATAN'S DYKEM?!?!" Gets me everytime 😂🤣😂🤣
Thanks guys!!!
If Paragon makes food ovens I'll be all over that.
I am proud of Will
I cannot say the same about you Alec. Red dykem can't simply be thrown out. There is no escape.
Now...you need to build a raised platform to go with the new Paragon Oven...to ease the loading process...I would if I got that oven...lol
I hope y'all have a great day & be safe.
This kukri competition is bound to get kooky
Challenge: KUKRI
Alec: I'm going to make a bolo!
Will: I'm going to make a falcata!
The music if phenomenal!
Gonna be tough to call a winner. Will has gone for the tactical variant, while Alec has gone traditional. Going to come down to the finishing work.
That was a real fun episode, I love it when you guys give yourself some challenges like that. And there's not that much more challenging then Forged in Fire 3 hours blacksmithing.
