      Hey, so I hear that you say quillion. I just wanted to point out that it's actually spelt and pronounced "Quillon." No 'ion' at the end. It _can_ be spelt that way, but it's less common. I've also heard a lot of other black smiths say quillion as well. I'm currently working on a book, and I used the word. It tried to auto correct it, and so, curious, I looked it up and was surprised to find that it was spelt quillon.
      And whether you say quillion, or quillon, it doesn't change the fact that that is an absolutely beautiful blade. Keep up the great work dude.

      @@liquid24 yeah, I know it’s pronounced more like “key-own” dagger. It just sounds a bit pretentious like that. 😜. Kind of like how Americans pronounce foyer improperly but it becomes the norm. (Pronounced “fwhy-ay” not “foy-er”)

The graphics you provide really help a lot, I can imagine what is going on. I didn't realize forge men could create these patterns with real metal like this! I used to think they just carved in patterns afterwards or something, but the steal was solid blocks. It is so much more satisfying to realize that they are true metals running through there.

    You know you explaining how you patterened the Damascus was so informative. Like I never understood how someone could predict the pattern that would come out, but you explaining along the way with little infographics made it so easy to understand. You really have a brilliant mind. Have you ever considered teaching because you seem like you would do really well at passing along this knowledge to others. Great video! hope you did well in the challenge since I am seeing this well like 6 months after this video went live.

    That dagger you made is absolutely BEAUTIFUL! My father loved knives, blades and craftsmanship and when he got cancer I wanted to get tools and stuff to make some knives so he could keep busy and work his fine motor skills as well as it would be something we could both do together and create beautiful functional tools that looked like pieces of art. He was diagnosed with esophagus cancer and then brain cancer and in November 2021 he passed away. He would have absolutely loved this dagger and all of your other pieces you’ve created! Now that he’s passed I still want to try to bring this idea him and I talked about to existence. You and other knife makers here on CZcams are very inspirational and it’s giving me that itch to start and practice so one day maybe I could be in one of these challenges.
    Anyways, thank you for your content, it’s great to see from start to finish.
