I'm forging a 200 layer skinning knife with 52100 and 15N20 steel.

“Hey Dad, what you doing?” Sounds like a happy family, that’s worth so much, good on you !! Nice knife too, can’t wait to see how it turns out. Regards from Down Under.
Thank you, I am blessed.
I like the respiration filter, I tune in to MichaelCthulhu as well!
So cool that you don’t just show videos of complete success. Thanks for letting us learn along with you from mistakes. We’ll done. Appreciate the video
I see so many vids of people just holding their work in the drill press vs using a clamp to hold it. Nice work, I always just cringe and wait for the helicoptering.
that's going to be a sweet knife!
Hey dad! Thats so awesome bro. Can't wait to see you teach your kiddos on how to make blades. Its something I wish I would have done.
Thanks, yeah it's fun
Looking great! Looking forward to part 2.
De-burring is incredibly satisfying
Great watch. Artistry!
Hi dad!! You should be saying hi back!! Maybe you didn't hear him
Super Video 👍
Always remember that when pattern welding all of the metal from the INSIDE OUT must be at a weldable tempurature. And the outside will tend to be hotter than the inside. You have to leave the metal in the fire long enough to heat all of the metal to the right temperature. But if the fire is too hot or you leave the metal in the fire too long the outside can be come too hot or scorch and you can get weak or brittle spots once you start folding the metal or welding it. I have Blacksmiths in my family and have training as a blacksmith myself, and this is one of the things I was taught and have learned.
I love the look of many small pins vs fewer larger ones
Glad to hear it!
old parmesan cheese containers work good for sprinkling borax
I love the press at the higher height.
Me too!
Glad to see new videos. Been missing em.
Thanks man, glad to be getting some content back up. I've been busy just making knives
I understand using "buzz words" in your title but appreciate you referring to it right in the video.
Excellent video, way better & more in depth info than any forged in fire show period. I've been stock removal over the years using old L6 sawmill blades & heat treating at the end. I would incourage anyone that recognizes the value of a good blade should try their hand at making their own knife & sheath. 🤙
Glad to see I’m not the only one that welds on his knees😂😂
haha, yeah you do what you have to do to get the job done
very impressive
I like the multiple pin patterns. Historically they didnt have the adhesives we have now, so pinnage was a way to increase the handle holding strength.
Me too.
That makes sense.
it could also allow you to thinner pins which might have allowed you to tune your brass usage more accurately in order to use the least amount of brass possible while still having an adequate handle.
it could also allow you to use thinner pins which might have allowed you to tune your brass usage more accurately since the higher surface area of multiple small pins would make the handles attachment less dependent on the wood allowing you to use the least amount of brass possible while still having an adequate handle.
What a beautiful machine, it would be a dream come true to acquire a power hammer like that. Looks like you treat her well!
I already know I want this knife! I've been extremely busy filling orders lately. Tis the season
I found your channel via Panhandle Hermit
Awesome!
You really got the use of the power hammer under controle fast.
Also like the setup with the power hammer and the press next to each other, looks like a good workflow setup
Thanks! Definitely a useful tool. I like the setup too.
I'm trying to get an old style little giant powerhammer, approximately 50 pairs of tongs, and an old coal forge that the family has no interest in. Hopefully the man comes up with an agreeable price.
Looking good!
Nice,
Very informative video. I enjoyed learning from your instruction and experience
hola me gustó el video saludo:
🤜🤛👍👊💪
good job
That looks like it is going to be a beautiful blade buddy!
Thanks Jeff!
I would love to see someone make canister Damascus out of machinist chips.
I've done that with drill chips, or swarf
@@FireCreekForge I will hunt that video down.
Thank you
Thanks for watching!
Seeing that you had the delamination issue because of the 1/4" pieces. Would it still be possible to get it to work if you had done a few smaller billets getting the 1/4" pieces forge welded and then stacking up the different billets and forge welding them together so that you would have been able to achieve what you were trying?
More experimental stuff planned?
I may have a couple ideas...
That's a really wide skinning knife. What is it meant to skin?
It seem a lot of forgers don't press or hammer the ends of their billet. Is that normal
I don't understand exactly what you mean.. you want to press/hammer all the way out to the end of the billet
@@FireCreekForge I watch a lot of different channels. Most of them don't go from end to end. I'm learning and trying to get proper knowledge. No one teaches forging here where I live
So only 52100 steel was used?
No, 52100 with 15N20
Try kerosene, isn't it filtered alot more.
If you find a local place that works on helecopters chances are they will have jet b fuel that can not go back into equipment it is even cleaner than kerosene and they will usually give it away since it costs more to send it back to be refined again or disposed of. Runs great in diesel equipment at a 50 50 mix too.
To be clear, I meant that the can of diesel I have is kind of dirty. But kerosene would be a good option anyway.
@@FireCreekForge stupid question prob. but why not regular gasoline?
@@MrThecorp I think I hat would be dangerous as gasoline vaporizes
Do you have any plans for your hydraulic press?
Doesn’t WD-40 contain silica? Does this have any effect on the end Damascus.
I don't know, but I've used WD-40 in the past with good success
👍👍🙏
Thanks for watching
Wait your visiting back🙏
I be willing to bet if you made up alot of bar stock it would sell like hotcakes. Let people build their own knives that doesn’t own a forge and hydraulic press. 🤔 just thinking out loud
I have had that thought..
If you ever go that route ive got an idea of a layered stainless or s90v
lovechild in my head of a bowie/cleaver. Basically a cleaver with a tanto point. Front heavy for chopping and with a tanto for making it fit where you want it to go
Did I miss the whole process of drawing out the steel with repeated hammering?
? did you miss the power hammer in the video?
@@AlexLozier @4:15 he starts and the metal delaminates, where does he relaminate it and fold the steel over and over to properly blend it?
Do you combine cold roll steel with hot roll steel
Yes that is fine
Watch shurp he has it down
Weren't you supposed to weld the layers together I'm not an expert or anything I don't know but I thought I've always seen people weld them together
Yep, that's what I did
Oh I thought after you got your 200 layer stacked up or wherever it was you just stacked them you didn't weld them are you just going for a random pattern at the end it showed a little bit of the pattern it kind of looked like it was going to be a ladder but I'm not sure I'm pretty sure it's just a random
omg the magnet on with sander i'm so dumb :/
ya mean bison horn? north america doesnt have buffalo. since you are in texas,you should know that.🤦♂️
No, buffalo. Other side of the world buffalo.
@@FireCreekForge so asian buffalo horn?
@@d1specdrifter Yes
@@FireCreekForge 👍👍👌😁
Ur mistake was ur forge welds. No hotdog weld on edge. Hamburger everything air shall not pass
It's kind of a shame to pattern weld 52100.
a
정말 수엽하고 대장간 아저씨네
That's not how shurap does it..... i don't think you know what you're doing, that's probably why your welds are coming apart
oh, ok. well the main is I know why it happened this time and I can avoid it next time. :)
NO. Should be 1 video. Don't drag it out. Not worth watch
Is it important for you to do voiceovers?? Honestly this makes your videos boring. Just some friendly advice. I don't mean to disrespect but that my honest opinion.
What i mean is you need to improve on your voiceovers.
Everybody that makes knives finish them in one video what's up with you how many videos we got to watch? I just unsubscribed
This ain’t real damascus
👎
i just got my press done and used it for 1st time today made a billet 52100 and 15n20 press is working good have a few bugs to work out mainly small leak here and there was a fun project will send you pics Mark 😃 do you have a email i can send to?
Nice! Shoot me an email from my website, thanks!
