    Nice anvil.
    Extraordinary talent on that saw.
    One thing I learned is to use a small round needle file to round the inside corners of the shoulders on the blade before installing the hilt. This will reduce the stress on that part of the blade making it less prone to snapping if used to pry etc. Nice job on that.
    You are a very talented individual for sure. Love watching all your creative ideas come to life.

    I highly recommend you wrap the waist of that anvil with some chain or use a few magnets on the sides and under the horn to quiet that ring, it sounds terrible on the video and won't be doing anyone's hearing any good that isn't wearing protection. The only time a ringing anvil is useful is to test that it's not cracked or delaminating (if it's a wrought body) otherwise it should be quietened. Keep up the good work

      No, it will soften quite easily using this method. In order for the steel to change colors (to the straw color) the temperature of the whole piece is raised slowly. This is a method used by many smiths.

  • @bischoffjoel
    @bischoffjoel 4 года назад

    I think the reason why your blade became magnetized is because of the way you rubbed it over the other block of steel to bring up the temp on the edge. Magnetizing any piece of steel is basically just aligning the molecules in a general North-South direction. I'm not entirely sure why the heated metal did that, but the rubbing motion across the blade seems like that would be the likely culprit.
