Dragon Scale Twist How To! Epic dragon bottle opener.

  • In this video I will be going over how to make an epic dragon bottle opener using a very special twist called the Dragon Scale Twist. A tapered and cut twist creates a scale like pattern that you might find on a Dragon! I got this idea off of a fellow blacksmith and CZcamsr Chris @MtPhillipMetalWorks and I will be sending said dragon to the lucky devil.
    In the video I will cover how I forged the twist in detail and show you how I create the other parts of the dragon. If people are keen to see how I made the head and limbs leave a like and if we get 1000 in less than a week I'll make a how to video.
    This technique is directly from the mind of Matt Harris of Harris Metalsmith Studios, for more information visit harrismetalsmith.com or check out his Instagram @harrismetalsmith harrismetalsmith. I asked Chris for permission to have ago at this twist in this video.

    That bottle opener and the two dragon heads are the dogs' blocks man. Congratulations on a job well done. If I get picked in the raffle, I'd just take one of the heads with a crook in it in bar form so I could incorporate it into a cane as a cane head.

    I got 1.37 into the video and stopped to say how much I recognise the technique. My own teacher (Master in my eyes) let me start from scratch then gently guided me to more difficult techniques on forming my dragon heads. The way you did it is very close to my best effort. It looks better than mine, and the finished effect is about ten levels above me. Respect from a beginner in the craft, hopefully my sculpts will get a bit better with some practice.
