- I'm using high carbon steel rods to create a neat pattern welded Damascus steel dagger. This knife has a stainless steel guard and elk antler handle.

They agreed to send me some additional equipment for me to use in my shop, (TX grinder, and now the surface grinding attachment) and I've supplied them with some media content to use on their own.

I’ve been following your channel a while ago, to see how steel pieces turn into beautiful knives, usually before falling asleep, so without audio😂. Some time ago my 3-year-old son started to watch your videos with me. You are Mr Beard Guy to him. It became kind of a ritual for him before falling asleep, he “wants to watch Mr Beard Guy”. Thanks for that.
That's awesome, thanks I appreciate it!
I've watched this a few times. Pick up new tips every time I do
Мужик, Россия за тобой следит, спасибо за видео!!!!👍
"So, the goal here is to..." Drink!
You use that a lot, dude. A LOT!
That and, "I'm going to go ahead and..."
I like that surface grinder attachment, that’s a good investment 👍
It's handy!
That is nice, and you are such a pleasant person to watch. 👍👍
That’s a sweet little dagger
Thank you!
Thanks enjoyed watching, very skilful looked like a real quality knife, will definitely watch future content.
OMG! I LOVE that pattern!!
Wicked pattern. Love watching your project vids.
Thanks!!
May I recommend a small sand blasting cabinet for cleaning canisters and metal. You will wonder how you worked without one after using it.
It’s beautiful
Thanks!!
That looks pretty cool.
Just spray some white paint in to the canister. The titanium in the white paint will prevent the material of the billet to stick to the material of the canister bud. I promise you wont regret it. Great video, great knife.
That pattern is one of my favorites I've ever seen.
Another very cool knife
Thank you!
Bee-u-tee-full! Love this!
Gorgeous blade!
Well done sir! I would like that!
Nice work 👍👍👍
Cool pattern.
Thank you
Could use the scrap sides of the damascus for guard pieces or end caps, maybe.
BEAUTIFUL !!
I was cringing when you were slicing on the bandsaw..... Beautiful dagger...
Looks good
The finished pattern looks awesome!🔥
Man you make some beautiful knives
Beautiful Damascus pattern, rather unique. Would have
Very nice!
Thanks!!
Great work Capt
Nice
I always use a vernier to scribe for sheet metal, they are perfect for it. :-)
I think you could make a small paring or trout knife for the cut offs
Sweet
Another amazing award winning build!
Beautiful as always
While you do have a press, and a full size grinder,
It’s reassuring to see how many of those specialty tools a lot of bladesmiths have (surface grinder, center scribe, power hammer, tig/mig welder, fixture table) you don’t have and still produce extremely good knives
That is a beautiful dagger!
that came out amazing Elijha that pattern is gorgous 😳😳 love it ,Mark 👍👍
Thank you sir!
Love the pattern. It appears to be similar to cable damascus pattern.
Love that pattern!
Thanks I appreciate it!
Cool. Really good work as usual.
I love twisted damascus daggers. Trying to design some of my own. Really good pattern.
Thanks!!
Hi, been following you for a while. Onmy just Saw the episode of FIF that you won. Excellent job by the way. You have come a long way since by the looks of it. With your machines etc. I particularly like your use of using old sawblades also in Damascus. Thankyou for being an inspiration. From Australia 🇦🇺
Now im wondering what a canister full of various sizes and types of cleaned welding rod would look like..🤔
Thank you
It's a beauty
Amazing! You've got some skills brother! Love your videos
Great job
Beautiful knife. Always amazing to watch a masterful artist at work. 😄😄
That pattern came out amazingly
Love your work 👍
Interesting pattern. Nice job.
Nice work! The blade turned out awesome, and I like the handle. Gotta me honest, I'm not entirely sure about both of them together.
I am really impressed with how that pattern came out, good job man!
Thanks man I appreciate it!!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I've been seeing folks use thin stainless steel sheetmetal as liners to keep the billet from welding to the can....
I have been forging for about 3 months now but I have been going through a lot of drill bits. I also use reclaimed materials such as leaf springs and axles. What is the best drill bits that I should use to drill my pins with? What is the best pin size that I should use? Right now I have been using 3/32 brass pins.
Beautiful work !
Amazing blade and a nice job again!! Somehow the color of the handle does not fit for me but the shape is good!! Keep on and thank you!!
It will keeel!!
Noice
12:59 Have you ever use a syringe to put epoxy in the hole for the pin? It's a less messy way of getting the glue where you want it.
Turned out great! Love your content. Keep up the good work
Very cool it reminds me of the water worn crinoid fossils we find on the beaches here sometimes, super crisp build all round it looks fantastic
I like that surface grinding attachment, the results are great.
have you considered welding the spare pieces together in a different way, maybe in combination with some other damascus.
thankyou for sharing this build.
Thanks for watching! I could use the left over bits in another canister at least.
@@FireCreekForge for sure, I am a never throw anything potentially useful away sort of person, but something I have made generally gets kept and used for something else. I hate wasting anything.
There is a metal the welders college studey probably spelled wrong. But it is a work harden rod I believe this metal would make a nice Bowie knife😅
That turned out beautifully what kind of sheath did you go with for it
Thanks! Not sure on the sheath yet
I wonder if you could drain the water bucket below your belt sander and harvest the metal shavings to make a blade.
Tried that before..!
@@FireCreekForge Do you have it in a video by chance?
Love your work.
Do you have any plans for the other forged pieces, like a marking tool (kiridashi) or other similar small piece? Really cool build either way, that pattern is very pretty.
Looks amazing, another great piece. I just tried to purchase it but the transaction wouldn't go through. It kept showing try again later.
Looks like it went through, Thank you!
That blade looks awesome! What ever happened with you moving shops to Idaho or whatever
interesting, at first I thought it was a steel tube, but these are rods🤓
I kinda looked like cable Damascus
What were the black bits on the guard closest to the ricasso?
Some indentation left from hot fitting it.
Working on your stone??
purty
mmm, the old smiths never had power tools...............lol👍👍👍
But long ago they had apprentices...
I've been wondering why makers of canister Damascus via a press never put the handle for the canister into the hardee hole of their anvil and give the ends of the canister a few hits with a hammer to ensure a good weld on the ends.
I've found that isn't necessary for something like the project in this video, but if the contents of the can were smaller peices with lots of powered steel then it could be helpful. I don't do it personally because it makes it more annoying to remove then canister, and I don't mind losing a little extra off the ends . I usally make my billets over sized anyway.
pretty sure if you want to make authentic "damascus" anything you need at least 4 wives.
A $1000.00 blade with a $10.00 guard and handle.
Beautiful. Love watching you Bro.
Any chance of forging a big tactical blade like the "cold steel" designs?
Thank you.
Nice
