I've noticed it multiple times in previous videos - especially the armor-series - and I'm noticing it here too: I love how Adam lets these great artists and craftesmen explain in detail things and processes to him he already knows, without making one single remark that it's not new info to him - like here when he's being explained the risk of stress fracture if those corner cuts aren't rounded. Of course Adam knows this already well - but still, he just keeps rogering the info. That kind of "respect to the master" is a rare and great trait.
There's definitely some benefit in that, too. Listening to others explain things you already know can help you understand them a little bitter, or maybe learn some additional uses for various methods and techniques; but also, you get to add new "tools" to your "teaching toolbox." I myself am a big fan of analogies, so listening to others explain things I already understand--or at least I think I understand--adds more depth to my own explanations when I'm trying to teach someone else! Listening to people is definitely a skill, and the best way to get better at it is to practice!
Agreed, plus even if you as the person making the video already know this, the people watching the video might not know it, so it helps us lay-folk keep up to speed with what's going on.
I've long noticed that Adam is an extremely generous listener, he doesn't interrupt or correct or say "I know". He's also generous just in general, if you think about it, sharing his knowledge and stories and experiences with us, and he has a knack for remembering the name of literally everyone he's ever worked with and loves to give them credit. He's a real good dude.
Which is why Mythbusters worked for so many years! If he already knew everything and didn't actually test it...well It would have been cancelled after a pilot episode.
I think most people that have had their shirt get stuck in a machine, or anyone that knows someone who have had their shirt stuck in a machine will do the same... Sorry for long comment.... I am a potato
@@tested Just want to say kudos to whoever wrote this comment. What a great way to kindly address a comment that could be considered snarky, with positivity and being very generous with information! We aren't owed anything but thank you for keeping us updated on the happenings behind the scenes at Tested!
It's a sensible thing to do if you hang around any sort of heavy machineries. Reducing the number of things on your body that could get stuck on moving parts.
Lol that guy teaches the way I do at my job. Stands by and gives hints, expecting you to mess up and learn from your mistakes. I love these videos where it's Adam going out and learning something new from other legends
Hey all, professional blacksmith/knifesmith/swordsmith in NYC. Adam, if you ever make it out to Brooklyn, you are welcome at our shop. We'll get you working on a steel blade and heat treat it for your second day of swordsmithing. :)
The tested team has this amazing talent for finding these wonderful, wholesome makers who enjoy sharing their knowledge, I'm very happy to see these longer episodes - great content!
"Hey the MythBusters guy is coming" "So what, I did ALL FREAKING SWORDS from Lord Of The Rings and The Hobbit. AND IT TOOK ME 6 WHOLE YEARS." Don't Judge the guy on his pants. Judge him on Anduril.
"That's the reason you heat treat", as he bends the blade on the original Boromir's sword at almost a 45 degree angle. Holy bendable swords Boromir!!!!
Such an awesome video. I love seeing highly skilled people work on their craft and discuss the little details. Peter was a great teacher / guide for Adam. Would love to see more long detailed videos like this in the future.
Seeing Adam so giddy and eager to learn new skills at his age with just such wonder like a kid brand new to the world; And for all these years makes me so warm and fuzzy inside.What and amazing human being, truly. LOVE YOU ADAM! HUGE FAN! :)
thats what i love about him he is fast in his own shop doing stuff he knows but as soon as he is out of his element he slows down and listens to people to teach him
Adam is a fantastic example of a very talented and experienced maker, showing complete and humble respect to a master of a different skill-set teaching him something new. And Peter Lyon is a fantastic teacher … explaining what, how, and why very clearly. Then he steps away and let’s the student get on with it, but is immediately at Adam’s side when he needs to be. Really enjoyed this video.
@@philips3236 YES! THANK YOU! I know shit happens. But this is constant. And there's no excuse with the level of production such as this. Or lack there of, I suppose.
Excellent... great to see Adam back making. Most enjoyable vid in a while and a big mention for Peter also, a real gent with the aura and calm of a Master !
Such a great episode. Peter "Lord of the Blade' Lyon mentoring Adam by basically saying, "Here's how I do it, have a go and i'll show you the bits to watch out for" Really impressed with the finished article. When he did the sword museum episode recently I could see him take what he'd learnt here to his understanding of those swords and the way they were made. Adam almost deserves honorary Kiwi status for the all the positive promo and fantastic way he showcases our talented Kiwis and our NZ can-do attitude. My two favourite bits had to be seeing Adam's semi-orgasmic reaction to hearing 'distal taper' and Peter seamlessly switching and converting between metric and imperial.
I know I’m late in on this, but in this world that seems to be so crappy at the moment, how absolutely heartwarming is it to come across a guy like Peter who is just straight down the line a nice guy?
Adam, 38 minutes into this you have a 'school child look' on your face, you're so proud. Your face when he says you're doing a good job. Love it man. Another great video, THANKS!
Fantastic Video! This is actually exactly what i'm looking for since i'm in building Swords like this myself. The part where they discuss the blade geometry, and how grinding will affect the shape is invaluable to me. So again, THANK YOU for this amazing video!!!
I remember making a sword once... used a broken hedge trimmer blade and used some foam for the handle. Used tape also to attach the foam to the handle part. It looked like something you would see from mad max or something...
he seems to me like a generous nice guy. very patient and also its sounds to me, like he really had joy making this with adam and see adam learn. i would go and get a drink with him. cool video and thaks for not cutting it down to much :)
This guys is an amazing teacher, the way he is able to articulate the smallest detail such as the need to reduce downward pressure while moving the blade from one side to the other is incredible!
Even more reason there should be closed captions on all content. Nevermind the fact that even if this mic was perfect I STILL cannot hear well enough to understand it all :/
Peter seems to be a great teacher. Patient and explains everything very clearly. It also helps that Adam is so skilled. Grinding a fuller is a lot harder than it looks.
This was awesome! Im so happy you got to make that sword. And that guy Peter Lyon was amazing. He did what he loved and he was good at it! Im so chuffed about this!
Like Adams eagerness to learn. He has almost a childs curiosity and it is refreshing and hits home he loves his job and knows he can always keep learning.
I think it’s interesting how so many people are commenting on his sweatpants without noticing how he’s got everything tucked. It’s an old factory tactic to prevent getting you clothes from getting sucked into the machines. It’s just a really cool detail that you can notice that comes from someone working for years in the trade.
To anyone interested in historical sword building and concepts, I recommend looking for "Peter Johnsson: Paradoxes of Sword Design" it's an in-depth documentary on scientific swordsmithing and all the complex calculations needed to make a sword have correct balance, shock resistance, percussion and pivot spots to make it feel like a _sword_ and not a sharpened crowbar
For a well radiused tang, first drill holes where the tang meets the hilt. Then, you can band saw the excess away and your radiuses will proper and your finished sword less likely to break.
its so impressive to see a true master at work. Love the editing on this episode, so much wisdom from experience that cant be recreated on second takes!
Peter Lyons is amazing and I always knew that in the abstract. This video solidifys it for me. He was super informative and very patient with Adam. I have been a hobbyist knife maker for about 3 years now and I learned a ton from this video. Also as an aside, grinding a blade is all about fluid consistent movements, sweat pants are actually very appropriate attire for what equates to yoga movements
Those blanks make me smile. Looking where the pommel should be made from, where to cut and where to carve. I'm on my first year of machining school, and it's definitely the right place for me. Going through the processes needed to get the things out from their metal shells fills me with happiness =)
This man is talking my language and I love it! Building armor, I totally know that feeling of dancing the edge between perfection and disaster. There always comes a moment in the shaping process where there is no going back and you'll have either done it or ruined it. He has put it into words beautifully! But I'll never get used to hearing "aluminium."
Hearing Peter Lyon talk about Lord of the Rings swords in that kiwi accent has me thinking about going back and watching all the behind-the-scenes footage for the LotR Extended Editions. Can't recommend that compendium of knowledge enough if you're into filmmaking. The entire behind-the-scenes is probably four or five times longer than the films themselves.
I'm confused lol. This must be very old footage. In Adam Savage's One Day Builds: Excalibur Sword! , he references this sword and that video was from 2017.
My point is that he is considerate (although, he’s clearly intelligent too). In New Zealand ‘aluminium’ is the correct pronunciation. But in the company of Americans Peter chose to pronounce it ‘aluminum’.
You can literally see Adam becoming more and more excited about sword making as the video goes on.... It's Adams childlike excitement that let's me know I'll be seeing more stuff like that in the future. LoL Keep up the amazing work Adam/Tested¡!

What a fantastic teacher he is, and big respect to Adam for not assuming he knows everything already!
Which is why Mythbusters worked for so many years! If he already knew everything and didn't actually test it...well It would have been cancelled after a pilot episode.
It takes skill to be a good student.
I love the passion and affection the Weta folks still show for LOTR. You can tell it was more than a few movies for them -- it really was a world.
Weta is just amazing in every way. just the way he talks about his grinder is passionate
look how proud Peter is teaching his craft and seeing the progress Adam's sword is going through...
This guy is a fabulous teacher.
@Joe Jon stupid bots, admitting to felonies
Love your channel, looking forward to trying out some of your tips/techniques on mine.
I like Peter a lot!
And I like how he lets Adam do what he thinks is right and only guides him through the important things.

There always comes a moment in the shaping process where there is no going back and you'll have either done it or ruined it. He has put it into words beautifully! But I'll never get used to hearing "aluminium."
I’ve really missed your one day builds....my joy has increased immeasurably now!
It's awesome having these videos from the PREMIUM CONTENT on RUclips for everyone to watch.
When he bent Borimir's sword my anxiety hit 100 so fast lol
Great Video guys, I really like these lengthy ones that show almost the entire process. Really respect the craftsmanship from Adam and Peter.
Hearing Peter Lyon talk about Lord of the Rings swords in that kiwi accent has me thinking about going back and watching all the behind-the-scenes footage for the LotR Extended Editions. Can't recommend that compendium of knowledge enough if you're into filmmaking. The entire behind-the-scenes is probably four or five times longer than the films themselves.
I'm confused lol. This must be very old footage. In Adam Savage's One Day Builds: Excalibur Sword! , he references this sword and that video was from 2017.
From the description box: "Enjoy this video from the Tested Premium video archive". So yeah, old footage.
@@acousticpsychosis They probably didn't use this before because of Adam's terrible lav mic quality.
@@LilithNobody it was only available to Tested premium subscribers until now.
Good to see Peter rockin his best linishing pants 👖.
Very rewarding to watch how mutual respect grows throughout the entire process
Props to Peter for saying ‘Aluminum’ rather than ‘Aluminium’.
My point is that he is considerate (although, he’s clearly intelligent too).
In New Zealand ‘aluminium’ is the correct pronunciation. But in the company of Americans Peter chose to pronounce it ‘aluminum’.
This is one of my all time favorite One Day Builds. So awesome to see you work with a legend and craft your very own sword
You can literally see Adam becoming more and more excited about sword making as the video goes on.... It's Adams childlike excitement that let's me know I'll be seeing more stuff like that in the future. LoL Keep up the amazing work Adam/Tested¡!
I love to see Adam - an experienced Maker - learn new things.
Peter is a true artist with swords. Awesome video Adam!
This was so enjoyable to watch. Good to see a decent craftsman's touch from the Weta bloke.
No audio from Adam, Norm not the best of camera men, but fantastic to finally see this.
The camera was appalling. Poor video quality overall.
Looks like they just "winged it" and the audio turned out bad ... Whatever :) Still interesting to see.
