REALLY happy to see you forge this out..unlike many who just do a couple presses then mostly material removal.. Nice tools and equipment, anvil. Good job.
HI Man! super video! If I may! once I saw, that one should grind off the surface of the twist, BEFORE squaring it, then you reduce the chance of "folding over" some of the "ridges" that sre created during twisting.. especially the corners of the forged and newly squared piece will have more solid and usable parts... just a quick grind with an angle grinder after twisting before one heats it up to square it.... Love your work!
I think i figured out that you used the rounded to stretch the blade wider?🤔 At first, I wasn't sure if it was for the pattern. Awesome video and, of course, awesome blade!!👻🤪🌶🤘😎♾️
Love the content. I am not a blacksmith so I don't know the answers to these questions. I hope someone with more knowledge can jump in and answer them. 1. I noticed the steel being worked when it had cooled to grey in color. I know that working cold steel can cause some kind of issues, but can you tell from color when it is too cold to work and if so at what color? 2. I use super glue (CA glue) quite a bit. I would think that it is too brittle for use in a knife handle. except for time, why wouldn't you use epoxy instead? 3. I know they use Ferric Acid, coffee, and even vinegar for etching steel. If you were to use red wine, would it etch the steel as well? If so, would it leave a reddish hue to the etching like how coffee leaves a brownish hue?
1 the steel looks cold but its still at a dull red heat. If i turned offnthe lights it would be visible. So its still safe to forge. 2 super glue with the accelerator creates a pretty strong bond but besides that once i glue up the epoxy on the inside also holds all the pieces together. And most times i dont have 7 hrs to wait for the epoxy to dry. 3 I have no idea if redwine would work.
Have you ever tried something like a small electric hand sander to help settle the powdered steel? Or would that be too much vibration? Love these videos!
Not sure. I bought that one a couple years back at bladeshow and i already threw out the bottle so i dont remember. You can buy sum 1090 with 2% nickle from maritime knife supply though they sell it for a good price.
Man that's a great knife!! When you do the coffee part of the etch, is the coffee cold, warm or hot? I've always been curious about that and never figured out how people do it. I assume it doesn't matter, but you know what happens when you assume...you make an educated guess from a limited set of facts. XD
@@ICU2B4UDO actually not... I would only use twisted damascus as cladding for a sanmai blade to have this wonderful look... for a blade that needs to be strong...like a sword or so...for kitchen knife especially the ones only used for slicing and cutting fine stuff it is not that relevant... the risk of having failures is too high.... (bend test fails at higher rate)

Nice tools and equipment, anvil.
Good job.
Some styles can only be stock removal. This fortunately isnt one of them so im free to forge it out.
Another gorgeous knife, JP. Love your control of your press.
Thank you I appreciate it.
that's a dope blade. nice work
Thanks
awesome channel! the way that canister finally came off was soooo satisfying 🤤
The easy removals are always the best.
Outstanding job yet again my friend!!!
Thank you

Its definitely safer to go that route
Nice piece JP. Solid work with that press.
Thanks JP i appreciate it
Great job sir...
Thank you
Super awesome pattern!
Thanks
Beautiful knife JP!

Great knife 👍👍
Thanks
That was the easiest cannister removal I have seen
Ive had easier 🥲
hermoso trabajo!!!
Thank you

Ive always done it with a hammer and had no issues so ive never changed the process. But other makers uses different tools to vibrate the cans
It does need to be a wee bit sharper but that's a freakin' beautiful piece of art...
Thanks
@@JPsBladeworksASMR ...You bet...
Magnifique 😘😘
Thanks
Nice Knife. Well done.👍
Which Metal powder did you use? Where did you got it?
Not sure. I bought that one a couple years back at bladeshow and i already threw out the bottle so i dont remember. You can buy sum 1090 with 2% nickle from maritime knife supply though they sell it for a good price.
Do you ever do any normalizing cycles before you quench? Never seen that in your videos.
Lovely knife!!
I do for every knife but i dont usually record it.

I used to mix it hot and let it cool but now i just mix it cold. It makes no difference in the end result. Sominjustbmix it cold and use immediately
@@JPsBladeworksASMR Nice, thanks.
What is the purpose of the twist? Is it for looks or does it strengthen the steel?
Both...
Looks
