You seem to have become like best friends with Guga. If I were in your position, I'd be best friend with him too. :) Keep up the great content, both of you.
You should totally get yourself a forge so when you don't have enough material at least you can forge at a Tang for the handle so it's all one solid piece.
I probably said this before me but…. Let me understand something they replaced you and Callie whit grace? She’s like the host of the show? I’m not tryin to hate but she’s quite annoying I’m keeping the tkor Channel only because of you guys honestly I don’t watch graces vids you were the channel creators best friend how could they do that? She’s not engaging and not entertaining and not you. Anyways it ticks me off.
It makes me a so happy to see you succeeding so much with your own channel. Was such a mistake for TKOR to let you go, but honestly I think it's worked out for the best. You're making much higher quality content now, and because it's what you care about, the passion bleeds through the videos!
Last time I checked your sub count you were around 100k. Now you're up to 200k. I'm so happy for you that you're starting to fly on your own. I won't be surprised to see you at 1m. So many creators know you and would love to work with you if you want that. Keep up the good work
It’s just crazy that 2 of my favorite content creators are collaborating!! I’ve been watching both you and Guga for years, I don’t care if you guys met naturally or through a management decision, the videos are superb. Nate you’re doing amazing on your own, keep it up!!
Good work, just a note dont try welding heattreated steel it wont hold (yes its a knive it will be okay in this case probably) done some toolsteel welding and u need to be carefull with doing so, need some heattreating aswell and so on.
Knife looks great, but I would personally use longer damascus part and put the weld further into the handle, so it's less stressed during use... And also weld it before heat treating would be good idea, as mentioned.
You should watch Kyle Royer, he has to be one of the greatest bladesmiths on the planet. After etching his blades he leaves them to soak in an in instant coffee bath and it brings out the dark striations of the pattern in crazy black detail.
I collaborated with Kyle! He made me a BEAUTIFUL bar of steel that I made into a knife, I've got two videos about it! He is so good. Ferric chloride and coffee don't work well on stainless steels though!
I love the thought you put into this for 'Guga'. I've been a long time subber to both your channels and I really appreciate the obvious friendship you two have. Oh, and I'm a knife nerd, so this was epic!
one of the better HT runs for a tuber. scale that as a knife maker that has been doing his own nearly 20 years dama steel is some $ stuff. you did a great job with your gear. that post HT weld gives me question but hey its a knife not ment for big impacts
I also make knives on a part time basis and always enjoy watching techniques used by other makers. Many of decisions were different than what I would have done, but you ended up with a beautiful product at the end. I've never seen a knife makers shop that is so clean though, mine ends up covered in powdered steel no matter how often I vacuum it.
Woah! this was not something I would think this channel is churning out, the knife looks great "first time" maker. "One thing I could speak on for comfort while cutting is a thumb relief, especially for the larger slicing movements"
I think you should have used as much of the Damascus as possible to get it to the center of the handle to make it stronger, it just looks like this could be a weak design
Dude, that stainless damascus, I should say... I didn't know it exists! Now I want it soooo bad 🤣🤣 I was a liitle worried with that point where Nate put the 2 steels together, but I hope it will never fail 😁
Interesting way to finish Damascus, have not seen that one before. Makes it looks like wood, in a way, or like water ripples that suddenly froze. With a bit more etching and deeper pattern it ought to make for an interesting feel and finish on something like a wrench as well.
When Nate’s explaining the acid soak around 8:30 he’s positioned in such a way in front of his lights that it makes it look like he has white eyes under his glasses a few times lol
Love your video's ... could you do a video showing cheap vs expensive products cleaning your basin @2:41 in this video (to be honest ... my OCD gets triggered in a bad way every time I see this dirty basin in a video) hope you understand
Oh my! NATE! I haven’t seen you since Grant passed away and you were the main face of TKOR. And I went back and looked at the channel and it’s veered away from what I remember
I'm a welder and you should have done Tig because tip is better for stainless because you can use stainless rod to weld it. If you did that. It would have be able to not show up making a better finish.
Beautiful knife! Nate what would you recommend as a starter wet stone for someone that wants to sharpen their own knives? I really want to get some but with all the options I don't know what to pick!
Nate this looks awesome! If you are up for video ideas, I love your food experiment videos. Would you consider videos that test multiple recipes of the same dish? I’m genuinely interested your group’s reactions. Plus, with options of “trying the best cookie recipes” titles/thumbnails, I think it gives you more ways to break out of your normal audience and expose people to the other awesome content you make. Hope the Guga collabs have been helping too!
I'd like to suggest an idea for a video. You should take your knowledge of different steel qualities and compare different commercially available Chef's knives to assign a value to the uneducated consumer. Me as a semi-educated consumer would recommend J.A. Henckles rocking santoku for price durability and utility costing around $80 but maybe you know better.
Awesome knife! Although the out of order clips around the grinding confused me for a moment. You went from finish gridining the handle profile back to cutting the rough handle shape with the cutoff tool. Threw me for a loop.

Keep up the great content, both of you.
Bismuth is also a key ingredient in Pepto Bismol, though not nearly as visually stunning as their pieces.
You should totally get yourself a forge so when you don't have enough material at least you can forge at a Tang for the handle so it's all one solid piece.
you seem to now have more energy and more fun than on the king of random

The most epic knife have! Thanks Nate… fits my hands like a glove 😂
Hope to see it in a future video of yours!
Guga, share video on your channel, nate need some recognition :))
I hope it’ll be in some videos
I hope to see more of you and Nate.
Love your videos! You taught me how to cook a steak properly!
Who else wishes they had a friend like Nate
i just wish i had a friend 😢
i wish i had both guga and nate as friends honestly 🤣
I have a friend named Nate, is that close enough?
Thankfully I do who makes stuff like this for me and family.
@@ketameanii I'll be your friend!
I hope you had a good time working with our Damascus. The knife looks great! -Damaworks
I hope to see the knife in a future video on his channel!
That finish on it is so unlike the usual Damascus that is more commonly seen!
Beautiful metal!
It makes me a so happy to see you succeeding so much with your own channel. Was such a mistake for TKOR to let you go, but honestly I think it's worked out for the best. You're making much higher quality content now, and because it's what you care about, the passion bleeds through the videos!
Honestly tkor is now a shell of what it once was, it's great to see Nate continue its legacy with the classic interesting projects
@@zUltra3D Couldn’t agree more. This channel has the soul that TKOR used to have when Grant was still around.
why did TKOR let him go?
@@jacobsidorov watch his video on it

That is really cool and definitely fits Guga's aesthetic.
This channel gives me so much comfort and joy, it feels like talking to an old friend, just so great

Full tang would of course be best but gotta work with what you got
Genuinely happy for Nates channel growth, it's only the start I reckon. He'll grow exponentially in 2023, my guess is around 2 million subs

Ya the weld is small, this is not a chopping knife, the join is inside the handle, and the heat never made it to the blade, it will be fine.
I've been a knife enthusiast for a couple years now, but that's my first time seeing stainless Damascus. Very cool looking.
I love your knife making videos, it helps me feel more confident about pursuing to be a knife maker. Great job 👍🏽
i've seen this guy somewhere was he in any other tv shows or yt channels?
@@boba9358 the king of random?
@@dierandomdie ohhh yeah ty
Nice technical explanation, sounds like a great teacher.
You need a close-up slowmo of the knife going thru the paper
The handle looks majestic! Great job Nate! Now I want new knife too :)
I also make knives on a part time basis and always enjoy watching techniques used by other makers. Many of decisions were different than what I would have done, but you ended up with a beautiful product at the end. I've never seen a knife makers shop that is so clean though, mine ends up covered in powdered steel no matter how often I vacuum it.
love all your videos but the knife-making ones are usually my favorite, great work!
Woah! this was not something I would think this channel is churning out, the knife looks great "first time" maker. "One thing I could speak on for comfort while cutting is a thumb relief, especially for the larger slicing movements"
you can now buy flux cored stainless steel mig wire FYI.
gorgeous piece
As a blade enthusiast i salute you fell beautiful knife, beautiful design and finely crafted and honed 👏👏👏
That came out so good
I think you should have used as much of the Damascus as possible to get it to the center of the handle to make it stronger, it just looks like this could be a weak design
brother it's a kitchen knife, the metal doesn't go under extreme stress in the same way a bushcraft knife would.
I love this guy from the bottom of my heart
Heeey, knife spotted in the new Butter Chicken video!
Stainless damascus. 😍 ooh.
Dude, that stainless damascus, I should say... I didn't know it exists! Now I want it soooo bad 🤣🤣
I was a liitle worried with that point where Nate put the 2 steels together, but I hope it will never fail 😁
I'm so glad nate left TKOR and has his own successful channel. He didn't slander them or put them down, but just left and started his own thing.
Shut up faker...
That knife is awesome!
Great video as ever, you've really found a relaxed editing style that really complements your content.
I love your sponsor ❣️
i do like that subtle patterning.
That knife looks great!
Nice knife Nate ,like it very much
7:25 the wall with a hundred belts
I need more.
Interesting way to finish Damascus, have not seen that one before. Makes it looks like wood, in a way, or like water ripples that suddenly froze. With a bit more etching and deeper pattern it ought to make for an interesting feel and finish on something like a wrench as well.
Can you do a video on using sharpening stones for sharpening knives?
That knife is amazing. I can't wait to see Guga use it.
When Nate’s explaining the acid soak around 8:30 he’s positioned in such a way in front of his lights that it makes it look like he has white eyes under his glasses a few times lol
I love the look 🔥🔥
That knife is gorgeous!!
This is a top tier duo
Just recently found you again. Glad you went on your own Nick. Loved TKOR but I haven’t really watched it since you left.
Looks so great!
The best feeling is holding a knife that fits perfectly in your hand
Wow that knife is NICE!
Wow such a beautiful knife.
Great job on the knife Nate.
Nate, that knife is absolutely awesome
That's a sweet blade, Nate !!! ◾◼◼⬛⬛⬛🟢🟩🟩🟢
Guga has lots of energy. I have tried so of his tests myself.
Beautiful craftsmanship
Similar to Benchmade Meatcrafter. Impressed by how this knife sharp is!
6:30 video shows cutdown shaped handle, then jumps backwards to Nate cutting shaping the handle. lol
oh my god this is awesome
That’s freaking sweet! Great job Nate!
i love guga's channel and this new channel of yours
Great project
good job, Nate, making a knife for Guga
Amazing work, 👏
Absolutely loved this video 🫶
Now that's a knife!
Very cool knife 🔪
LETS GO NATE
Great video looks good
New Subscriber, from Guga, with love
Woah you make that for Guga?? :D
Please make more this is wayy cool
That’s so cool
What a glorious piece of work Nate! Great job bud seriously that’s epic
I have a few Damascus knives and you made a beautiful piece.
That is an awesome knife I enjoy your video
Awesome
Great vid Nate!
‘continuity’
Damascus was from Damaworksllc
I like this channel, its like a more advanced TKOR
Love these type of videos nate
Every skilled Butcher that I ever talked to about Knives regarded Stainless Steel with Fear and Loathing-Nah, more like Elitist Contempt.
Amazing
perfection 👌
Welding after can compromise your heat treat/temper unless I'm mistaken... but fantastic work 👏🏼 👌🏻
Love your video's ... could you do a video showing cheap vs expensive products cleaning your basin @2:41 in this video (to be honest ... my OCD gets triggered in a bad way every time I see this dirty basin in a video) hope you understand
Thank you
Oh my! NATE! I haven’t seen you since Grant passed away and you were the main face of TKOR. And I went back and looked at the channel and it’s veered away from what I remember

Outstanding!
Awesome looking knife. Good job!
Great Job Nate! Always good to see your vids!
Very cool stuff nate
Would it not work better to have the fan on the other side of the acid, allowing more air to pull away the fumes?
Great job Nate! You do awesome work. Glad to see that your channel is growing, you deserve it.
Beautiful knife! Nate what would you recommend as a starter wet stone for someone that wants to sharpen their own knives? I really want to get some but with all the options I don't know what to pick!
King deluxe 800 or 1000 and a leather strop with green compound is all you need
Nate this looks awesome!
If you are up for video ideas, I love your food experiment videos.
Would you consider videos that test multiple recipes of the same dish?
I’m genuinely interested your group’s reactions.
Plus, with options of “trying the best cookie recipes” titles/thumbnails, I think it gives you more ways to break out of your normal audience and expose people to the other awesome content you make.
Hope the Guga collabs have been helping too!
I'd like to suggest an idea for a video. You should take your knowledge of different steel qualities and compare different commercially available Chef's knives to assign a value to the uneducated consumer. Me as a semi-educated consumer would recommend J.A. Henckles rocking santoku for price durability and utility costing around $80 but maybe you know better.
Awesome knife! Although the out of order clips around the grinding confused me for a moment. You went from finish gridining the handle profile back to cutting the rough handle shape with the cutoff tool. Threw me for a loop.
finally some good music
I'm a professional chef, I'd love a knife made by Nate. I've been to his knife website, they really cool.
