It's been pointed out I didn't quench the tang and that is why the etch wasn't as visible there. Tru!

I very much enjoy your videos. I have stage 4 thyroid cancer. When I can not sleep at night you help me get through! Cheers! Thank You very much!
I hope you Still alive Bro, enjoy tour family and tour life...
Stop lying
NAILED IT!
boom
Lol
God damn it beat me to it
Figured I'd see someone talking about how the knife was "hard as nails" but that is close enough...
Practical Renaissance HA!!!!

A true master of his trade
Thank u for the great pfp from 4:40-4:50. Been great all this time
in each video will learn something new :) awesome work :)
That’s awesome every time I watch it. More please of the nickel line, it makes the knife stand out
Awesome stuff buddy thanks for sharing. Trying to build knives from different things on my channel now I'm catching up on all my work 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Wow that is in my opinion the most beautiful knives you've made so far; texture, colour, shape... really shows your skills are improving you made that look easy!
Of all your knife builds I've watched, this one is probably the coolest. Love that dark dark edge and the bright nickel stripe, and the prominence of some of the nails.
This guy is good plus he is funny!!!! I love the robot. This is the type of person that I would love to have as a teacher and as a friend. Great sense of humor and an awesome job
Wow, this knife is straight up stunning. Definitely my favourite one of yours thus far. I love the fine nickel line following along the transition of steel types... You are truly an amazing artist
You're the only one to try those crazy damascus experiment, always wonderful
I have no idea why, but I love this video so much. Every time I see it on my list I just have to watch it. You did an amazing job, SIr.
I go to your store every time I am in Tulsa. My daughter and I love it. Thank you for offering great priced knives for knife lovers.
You certainly have a way with steel.
I salute you, and all the effort you put into your knives.
Watching your work is like a spiritual experience.
This is the prettiest knife I've ever seen you make. Absolutely love it. The nails came out just right and that thin nickel line was just superb. Amazing craftsmanship.
Why has no one said this yet. GB you nailed it.
boom
For me it's the prettiest knife you've forged so far, and I've been watching you for about 2 years now! Hands down one of me favourite yt-channels. Keep it up, mate!
One of the most beautiful knives I've seen you make.
Aside from good looks, does this knife have any special toughness due to the combination of different steels?
Landrew0 sure. The edge is 1095 wich is a great steel and the spine is softer steel (nails are made from mild steel) so it absorbs shock easier. That caracteristics make a sharp and durable knife.😉
I love how often you include your failed pieces. You always see on TV or documentaries etc where they always say "One wrong strike and it could be all over" or "If we hear such and such during the quenching we have to start over" yet it somehow always works out. It's awesome to see the actual process in honest detail
Stealth Bobber that's because TV is 9 times out of 10 fake
How on Earth may I be blessed enough to purchase a knife just like this? It is my Dream Come True knife.... Thank you for the awesome video. Matthew Fakes.
heat treated steel etches differently. since you only hardened the blade it will etch differently from the handle. beautiful knife. i love how you can actually see the nails. hopefully i can get my forge back together soon and give this a go
mark16443 yep, that’s exactly what i was going to say. You really hit the nail on the head with that one 🤷🏼♂️
GB, please please please please please make a knife out of different sized ball bearings.
That green beetle is a beautiful knife. Well done! the nickel strand throughout the blade had me sold.
Glad I saw this one. Have a bunch of nails from the mid 1800's I want to try this with.
excellent work and all the explanations...especially when it comes to the quenching and tempering...only the sky is the limit :-)))
Beautiful pattern there with all those nails.
The nickel line is really bright and goergous!
Lovely piece of work done there I must say.
Cant get over the nickel line somewhat creating a sort of a hamon line making the knife look even better.
Thenk you for this film which has inspired me even more to start tha journey down the path of knife making.
Best of luck!!!
The reason I think why it did not etch as well on the handle part, is because you only heat treated the blade. The part that is heat treated will expose the pattern better, it gives a better contrast between the steels. The part that is not heat-treated will show a very faint pattern, not as good as it would heat-treated. That's why a lot of knifemakers quench the whole blade, because they want the pattern to be exposed throughout the whole blade and handle. Very similar to Hamons, when you heat treat only a certain part of the blade, which is the cutting edge, it will etch differently than the part that is not heat treated. Hope this helps you out with your up-coming projects!
That was awesome. I really like the line from the nickel , it shows up so bright next to that 1095. Great work GB, keep up the good work!!!!!
May be the best looking knife you've done so far. I like it a lot. Thanks for sharing!
That is FREAKING AMAZING! Love the bright line of nickel as well as the "color fade" in the blade. Awesome!
Making damascus steel without a powerhammer is a respectable work. The knife got really pretty.
Followed this channel for months and just realized we are in the same city. I saw a billboard recently. Great work!!!
God that's beautiful. Probably your best looking piece so far. That faux hamon you made with that nickel is amazing. Well done.
Kudos, sir. That nail knife looks absolutely stunning!
This and the fish hook have been my favorite of your canisters. You've really upped your finishing work, especially on the ricassos.
I can't even believe that you can make a knife that nice out of nails and a piece of square tube and some powder. Really cool video dude I want that knife I love how the spine is so thick you Blu my mind.
Wow, i think that is the most beautiful knive you have ever made. Really, really cool knife!
Awesome knife Sir !!!!!!!!!!!!! The wood you choose for your handles is gorgeous looking. Well Done
Man you hit the nail on the head with this one.👍👍
This is awesome. I think it's my favorite that you've done so far.
That is a phenomenal knife. Beetle, your knives have improved so much, that's absolutely gorgeous. I'm very impressed!
I wish you had put this one on eBay. Beautiful work can’t wait till you make another. Thanks for the great videos.
Wow, beautiful!!!
Was sceptical about that nickel liner, but damm, that looks pretty...
its really the icing on the cake, makes the knife in my opinion
Arthur Herbst mommy.
doesn't nickel dissolve into steel and make it bad?
Awesome work as always. Love that you keep challenging yourself
This is one of my favorites you have made so far. Great work, thanks for sharing this
As always, very interesting and informative video! I love the bits of humour thrown in there as well. Knife turned out awesome!
That's crazy cool ...the nails & nickel knife...nice job..GB
This is an astounding blade! Great job!
That dark edge and the bright nickle line looks awesome!. Always look forward to your videos and your style. Good experiment on making the micarta. At least me know now that it doesn't look so good
That turned out great.....good move adding that single sheet!
That is so darn cool, great work as always!
By far the prettiest knife I’ve seen in a while... would like one of my own but with maybe some red construction paper or cloth layered into the sand paper
Looked cool.i know all about the furnace gloves and stuff.i worked at marshalltown trowel,a company Dave Lennox started over 140 yrs ago.ran a furnace that burnt 2300 degrees.was neat running equipment,rolls,hammers and such that were 50 to 70 yrs old
That has to be the best looking knife I've ever seen.
Absolutely stunning knife! And as always a pleasure to watch you work.
I respect your channel you showed your mistake an why. You just got a new subscriber!!! Oh thanks for the glove dance party moves gotta make sure I use them .
Subbed, very happy to find a black smith that does commentary on their videos!
beautiful loved that you could see the nails in the etch
Really cool stuff with the nickel to separate the 1095 edge! good job!
Those nails look great. Well worth the effort.
That nickel strip really paid off. Made it stand out sweet.
Great job. Keep up the good work.
The blade and the handle together look so beautiful! Amazing job
Think this is my favourite knife you've made, really like the pattern, shape, and handle.
That knife is freaking gorgeous!!!
Ha! The robot, I love it! Good work man, it’s a beautiful knife. That line of nickel is pretty sweet looking too.
Very therapeutic watching a master at work. Nice work - truly.
hardened high carbon steel will etch darker than soft high carbon. Thanks for videoing all your work. I enjoy watching!
That is one hella beautiful looking knife, love the nickle line pattern, great job mate !!
Very , very, very awesome and beautifull. Thanks for WIP
Here's a whacky idea; You've been trying to make a knife out of drill shavings for a while. Have you considered using *SCREWS* (as in un-coated wood screws)? They are usually nice, hard steel, and they have that twisted body. So you may actually end up with nice curls in the damascus? Worth considering, or hare-brained?
Addicted to Projects what about carbon steel springs? Flattened out it would be a great spiral effect that should be really pronounced. I thought about trying it
Yeah, I think that's an even better option!! :)
Addicted to Projects carbon steel springs + higher nickel steel springs combined with powdered steel would be an awesome mash up.
Addicted to Projects its a good idea but if you can't use the shavings then you throw them away. Its kinda like how you use a magnet to pick up your grinding dust to reuse it
The only screws I've ever found are either coated or stainless. So, a few weeks ago I tried marine grade 316 stainless. Only about half the surfaces welded and there were some gaps in the screw driver slots. So even if I find uncoated carbon steel screws I would have to figure a way to keep gaps out of the screw driver slots. Would look pretty cool though.
Turned out beautiful. You do wonderful work. 👍😝
I think this is my favorite knife you've made😀👍 great job
that nickel line is beautiful. what a fantastic looking knife.
Last nail in the coffin. I subbed so good.
Just beautiful! Like the thickness of the steel!
You nailed that on the head. Good job man.
I can't tell you how much I would want a knife like that! seriously! I want one LOL. I'd love to be able to make one. I'm getting there, just need an anvil, forge, steel, hammer, and a few other things =D LOL!!!
wow man you na... done a great job on the comedy. Had me in stitches. More alright.
Beautiful knife. Enjoyed the video as well!
That is the most inventive use of a jigsaw I have ever seen!
thats one of the coolest knife blades ive ever seen!! good job man keep it up
A true art. Very impressed.
Wow! Easily my favorite knife behind your San mai blade.
Love the nails! I tried this using fluted masonry nails to make stars, maybe I will try it again!
that knife is beautiful. My favorite one that you have made.
New to the channel and I have to say.... "That is one SICK, SICK KNIFE!!"
Amazing! this knife came out really well done. They amount of work you put into your videos and knifes is incredible. Also the drill spiral knife you did in your last video was sick.
That's a pretty cool knife. Well done.
Great job. This has to be one of my favourite knives from you!
I think this is possibly my favorite or one of my favorite knives you have ever made
DUUUUUUDE! I just found your channel as I'm venturing into some knife making on my own channel soon. That knife is insane! You make me want to make all the knives.
Now that's a handy knife, and I would buy it.
Beautiful knife. Makes me wish I was the essential Craftsman more than ever. ;)
Love the essential craftsmen's channel! Beauty knife!
Love the whole nails in the pattern. Keep up the great work sir love the vlogs.😎
Killer content and great knives. I'm always stoked when you release a video.
Maybe my favorite knife you have done yet. I would love to see you do a canister damascus project like this with 52100 steel.
