Important! Be wary of scammers, I have caught a few of them impersonating me, trying to trick people inte to contacting them. Always check back to this comment to see if the winner has been announced. Another thing to look carefully at is the name tag of the person writing. mine is "@nilsogren" , they usually have weird tags promting people to reach out via telegram or so. DONT engage with them.
Also, I am aware that the name for the actual welding technique might be wrong. I did consult with a few different smiths and that's what we came up with.
Thank you for watching!

You definitely jump to the point the third time. Very impressive work nils ögren thanks for sharing godbless and be safe.
I would love to receive the beautiful JUMP welded axe. I recently made some Japanese knives at our local forge. When you pay for a course you really want to take something home. It’s great that you can afford to make mistakes and learn. ❤️🇦🇺
I really like how the majority of your axes are made fully by hand and without too many power tools/hammers.... It's really inspiring. I might just jump back into my tiny garage with the smallest gas forge and mini anvil and have a go at making something with my very own hands and simple tools. Thank you dearly Nils!
Jump
Jump !!! Love the axe. Ive done that type of weld on multi bar twist knives. Sounds simple but can be troublesome at times. Just got to reflux and jump back on it.
You and torbjorn being friends makes me very happy. Especially that photo of him
We are also Arnold movie fans!
My heart did a little JUMP when I saw the damascus reveal at 15:00 as it cooled! Love it.
I love how you JUMP into a build and keep going even when it doesn't go as planned. You learning from your mistakes has taught me a lot. Thank you, and keep it up.
As a beginner blacksmith who doesn't have access to those big fancy power tools yet, this channel is super helpful when learning things. Thanks man! Jump!
I love that you're one of the very damned few smiths that don't use any power tools for your builds. I was happy to JUMP in and subscribe. Nice work!
Yes! That was also the very first thing i where taught by my old master, he said to me this: "If you start with the powertools You will newer learn the process in depth, powertools does come in later whan one are at the skill that you simply need to save time, but they are not for learning"
The overuse of powertools bothers me. Smiths smithed for thousands of years without em.
Ehm he usually uses power tools, his press and power hammer as well as grinder. He doesn’t in these more tutorial style videos though
@@cleanixx5343 Then I'm even more happy with this. The fact that he'll do a build like this the harder, slower way for that purpose makes me absolutely giddy. :)
@@cleanixx5343 I hawe a powerhammer and a big, stationary grinder as well as handheld powertools, but for teaching beginners this is the right way in my opinion.
Any sane person would jump at the chance to own an axe like this. Seeing you learn and work through your mistakes and share that process is very kind.
I JUMPed on board the channel a while ago, but I cannot resist leaving a comment.
I have not tried it, but I have always wanted to use this technique to steel the edge of a rail spike knife so it will actually make a functional cutter.
Man O Man, that transition from body to blade really JUMPs out at you. Absolutely love the craftsmanship.
I loved watching you use hand tools to forge this axe. Always enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work. “Jump”
I think the JUMP into trying this three times shows your skill and determination. Thanks for all the videos and the teaching.
You did a great job of explaining the problems you faced making this sort of weld. My grandfather called such welds "flush welds" and, sometimes, "face welds". My grandfather would use a heavy file to create a "sawtooth" pattern at the interface where the mild steel met the harder steel (not pattern-welded in his case, usually some manner of hardened tool steel) to increase the surface area of the welding point. That and copious amounts of flux. His motto was "never enough flux".
Those aren't mistakes, Nils, that is character!
Jump and Jiminy the third time is always a charm. I really like the Damascus in the edge.
You also use some different techniques, but I haven’t seen anyone teach on any of the other channels. Thank you.
Hey Nils, I love to see that you make your experience, and we all can learn with you. Thanks a lot!!!👍
Jump. This series is an inspiration, thank you Nils 🙏🏻
I jump for joy each time one of your videos drops. Gorgeous work.
My son and I have been watching metalworking at night together. This came up on a suggestion and we had to Jump to watching it right away. We loved this one! Cheers!
I really like the laidback and informative way you do your videos. Someone watching can JUMP to their own project and forge an axe.
Thank you for sharing the full process of learning the jump weld along with the failures. Really enjoyed watching.
Thank you for your videos! Always nice to JUMP to your channel and see your passion for the craft. 😊
Jump. Great video, Nils. Really appreciate you trying hard things and letting us see what happens.
I'm so glad that you've also included the learning curve and iterative process of it. I like your channel.
Nils, you have to experiment to learn as you have said before. Thanks for showing the failed jump tests. It was helpful in explaining (teaching) the difficulty. Fancy, putting a Damascus edge on it.😊
First time watching any of your videos and I love it! this was a great place to Jump into your process and videos and I will be taking copious amounts of notes as I hope to do a little blacksmithing in my garage in the future!!!
Jump!! Beautiful axe and great video as always. Thoroughly enjoy your presentation and showing what can happen with previous attempts. Thank you Nils!
I would JUMP with joy owning such a beautiful bearded axe handmade with the jump welding technique. Well done!👏
First time I JUMPed on this channel. What a great video to start with. Time to binge watch the rest of your videos! The axe looks beautiful as well.
Been following you since the beginning days of you and Sam on the Podcast... really appreciate your growth and sharing both success and mistakes with us... thanks Nils- you have an awesome day my dude! JUMP
JUMP, it's a very nice axe and it is satisfying to see you don't give up in the process now matter how many problems shows up in the forging process, keep up the good work Nils
It is nice to see a true craftsman at work, it gives me a reason to JUMP for joy!😉
JUMP - ing right into the comments to tell you how happy this video made me! I love your adventurous style and your clear explanations.
I've never seen a jump weld done before. Amazing job!
This JUMP - welding is very interesting and thank you for going over your mistakes with us, you are a great teacher!
I love the rustic but refined hand work you do, and your constant experimentation. You are advancing your craft.
Liked your third attempt for the jump forge welding. Really enjoy seeing you use all the hand tools in this video. Keep the good content coming out for us.
Found your channel via the master Torbjörn Åhman suggested videos. The jump was not that far and you now have a new subscriber. Keep up the good work making awesome videos!
Absolutely love the sharp lines between the body and JUMP welded edge. Just beautiful and worthy of a subscribe!
I JUMP at subscribing when I saw your smithing skills. Very nice work and thank you for sharing knowledge.
Inspiring and well thought out video on a neat jump weld approach! Thanks for showing the failed versions too. Those are so valuble to learn from. I feel I learn from those as much as the successful ones.
Another great video! Thank you for showing us the jump welding technique.
JUMP. I am such a huge fan of the channel, every project has me glued to the screen
“Jump” Another Awesome Video.
Thank you for time to share your learning which helps us learn.
Jump weld has a beautiful transition, I like that it isn't quite a perfect line. Beautiful work as always Nils, hoping to pick up another axe from you soon!
I had no idea what you were trying to accomplish but it was worth the wait and I JUMPed with joy when I saw it done! Great work!
Worked out well. Appreciating your videos in the world of blacksmith youtube; the aesthetic is really nice, the photography makes the moving of metal very obvious and pleasing, the changes of camera angle, the jump cuts, the proportion of talking to the camera and getting on with the job, all very nice, satisfying and educational. Cheers for your good work.
Such a great transition, love all the axes you've done! Jump!
JUMP
Persevering and learning from your mistakes is great to see. It's always hard to get anything new right first time so it was great to see you get this finished.
Great video, I love the JUMP weld technique you showed!
Fantastic once again! Thanks so much for sharing your exploration and experimentation, it's truly a pleasure to watch!
I'm impressed how you don't let any error deter you from one item to another and able to jump to another item. Looking forward to your next project.
That was a super interesting technique. I am loving the use of all hand tools so far. I have an interesting in getting started in blacksmithing, would love a video from you on a basic set of tools for beginners. JUMP!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge it gives me confidence to try new techniques.
Always love seeing how you JUMP into a project and give it your all. Just watching the lunp of hot steel turn into something so beautiful is amazing.
What a jump I’ve made into a true old school blacksmith! Wonderful work!
Thanks for sharing more of your skills. I think it really speaks to your character that you showed the failed axes as well. Can't wait to learn this technique myself. Jump
Amazing work . Just wow. I learned a few things just watching you work sir . Thanks so much.
I have only forged a couple time and loved it! I can’t wait to finish my setup so I can Jump into some hands on learning and fun!
What a beautiful axe. The transition to the edge steel is great. Lovely work. Jump!
Jump! I love your videos. As a novice smith, I really appreciate how you talk people through what you do and why you do it.
I really like this JUMP welded axe! It looks amazing!! Job well done
Things like this really make me wanna JUMP right into blacksmithing. There's so many different skills and kinds of knowledge that go into it!
I like your exploration of the different weld possibilities for axe construction. It's interesting how the jump weld is different to the scarfed weld!
Felt like I had made a JUMP into the past and watched an artist in the days of old !
Love ya work mate ! 😎👌
Nice Jump technique, outstanding result!👏💪 Good luck to everyone!
I absolutely love how you JUMP welded the blade. It is absolutely beautiful! Love the contrast between the Damascus steel and the mild steel
Hi. I had to "Jump" to add a comment after watching your upload. Love the work you do and thanks for taking the time to document and share your work. Best wishes from West Wales.
Great video. I’m impressed by your jump weld as well as that you didn’t use any power tools and that you’re brave enough to try new things and film them.
I’ve been considering taking some forging classes locally, and I think you may have given me the kick I needed to JUMP into it! Awesome axe!
Beautiful videos. I'm watching a couple every day now.
That Jump weld looks awesome! I'd be happy to win that. Fantastic craftsmanship as always, Nils! I always learn something new watching your videos.
I really enjoyed seeing you succeed but it also was nice seeing the failed ones you did while learning JUMP welding!
Nils,
Another great video, the fact that it took you three times to make it the way you wanted, shows your jumping dedication to trade. Thank you for taking time to build, film, edit and post this video.
( JUMP )
I can only imagine how comforting it was on the third and final try to see the weld was successful. I’m glad you kept at it too. I think it turned out lovely and would be proud to have it in my shop.
I will eagerly jump at the opportunity to win such a fine piece of axe. I'm amazed you got the forge weld to hold in open air like that, you're a very precise craftsman.
This chanel sure jumps up expectations for hand tool axe forging. Love and hate it, now i propably have to give it a go myself
I love that pattern on the JUMP weld. Was cool to see the pattern when it was hot during the normalization. Thanks for the video and the opportunity.
JUMP. I really like that you show the little details of your work. Thanks for the great video 😀👍
This was an awesome video. Very well done. And your skills are amazing. This is what makes the amount of viewers jump.
Always get the itch to jump back into the workshop after videos like this. Awesome work mate.
I really enjoy watching you work, learning from you as you do, and would JUMP at the chance to own one of your incredible pieces.
Amazing work. Glued to the screen for entire period. Didn't JUMP or skip any part.
JUMP
brutally challenging project!! Love the axe amazing work !!
JUMP JUMP JUMP .... precioso trabajo!!!! Saludos y gracias por tus fantásticos videos!!!!
I would have never thought of making a “ jump “ weld on an axe.. very interesting and beautiful work…
Always excited to see new content from you in my notifications and I admire your determination for a successful jump weld. Not many people are willing to show their failures that led to the achievement of completion and will heavily edit their videos to seem more proficient than they are. This would be a piece I’d proudly display in the home shop. Can’t wait for the next video. Take care of yourself!
I love this piece! I would definitely say that the second attempt is the correct way to go...the end product is gorgeous! the pattern on the edge JUMPs out at me, capturing my gaze...🤩
Cool video! I like that you use hand tools for a lot of the work. It reminds me of how much we can do with basic tools. Interesting JUMP technique!
Love watching you work as always. The JUMP weld was very interesting to see you do.
Kudos, Nils, for hanging in there to figure out how to troubleshoot this JUMP weld!! You're a GENIUS!! I like your thinking!! This turned out BEAUTIFUL!! You're a TRUE craftsman & thank you for sharing your talents with this community!! Greetings from 🇺🇸! 🪓🌲🪓🌲
jump - Glad to see you didn't give up, and were open about how you failed and what you learned. Thanks for sharing.
I have made the JUMP to believe you are the best traditional axe-smith on CZcams. It was beautiful to see the pattern coming through during the different heat cycles.
Man, Ive been following your videos for a while and am always amazed at you art and craftsmanship. Im an amateur blacksmith, along with being a full time graduate student studying music, and have always wanted to try the sorts of things you cover on your channel! Axe making is such an art. Ive made some small carving "axes" from railroad spikes in years passed, along with some other wood working tools and knives for friends. But, I have some material saved for a project similar to this, and hope to give it a shot soon!! I would Jump for joy if it works out! forge welding is still something I need to work on, but trial and error are good teachers. Please keep it up, always enjoy your videos! - A
I just discovered your channel and have been wanting to get into blacksmithing for a good while now. That's an amazing axe with s beautiful look. I'd JUMP for it
This channel totally jumps out as one that is severely underrated. Deserves a huge jump in number of subscribers. It's entertaining, educational and what could be more relaxing than 20min of steady kling kling klang kling klang noices
...And beautiful axes by the way. Keep up the good work!
Figured I would JUMP right into the comment section. I really like the way your axes have a hand-crafted look. You don't just follow some common template, you make your own work. Thank you for making your videos.
Wow! Another awesome technique and project Nil! I would jump at the opportunity to win that axe! Thanks again for taking us along through your process!
JUMP... Great to see you trying all these techniques.
I love watching your videos, and the fact that you show all the issues makes it even better. Your Jump weld may not be perfect but still looks good. Thank you for sharing the whole process.
First time viewer always nice to see people experimenting and taking a Jump forward in skill whenever they can
