I’m just sitting here high as hell, trying to imagine blacksmiths back in the day who didn’t have these machines and still made beautiful swords like the one here. Good stuff man
take up the hammer man become the Smith!
I love the fact that it's not all shiny and claiming, it looks rustic like it would actually be used. Great work dude, I really enjoyed watching this 👍👍
i did not expect that the resulting pattern from nails would have been so energetic! super close fit up too, beautiful result.
I love when people see a project like this and say "well if I had those tools I could do that too". Then you take them to the shop and hand them a bar of steel and the first thing they do is ask how to start the forge. I just shrug my shoulders and say..."well now you have the tools". They can not fathom the art, skill and experience that goes into a beautiful creation like this.
Yes, pretty much literally this... These are often the same people that want the premium of the premium in tools, but when it comes down to it, they haven't a clue how to use them. To my great disappointment I never got into metalwork or forging, and I would love to get into it, but I simply don't have the space to set up a workshop at the moment. But the point is, it's not the tool that makes the result, it's the craftsman, and whatever tool he can use to create it that matters, I'd say. :)
How long did it take you to unlock the damascus camo?
5000 kills probably
I bet the challenges were 50 low blows 30 kills from behind the enemy 25 kills without taking damage and 500 total kills
He had to get gold on all weapons first....
If you're at the one yard line, in the super bowl with less than 5 seconds left in the game AND Marshawn Lynch in the backfield... you run the damn ball.
Not a Seahawks fan but everyone took all my outdated CoD knife references.
Damascus wasn't hard at all
Except for that god forsaken 3 kills w/o dying on the riot shield
Good! Now make nails out of the sword
💀
When the buyer gets an "arrow in the knee"
The cycle continues
An interesting build. I don't often see a canister damascus used, most often its the traditional pattern or ladder pattern more rarely. And the way the blade came out was fantastic, good work!
I've never been THAT into forging or smithing or idk what you even actually call it. But this is the second video I've watched by you and I gotta say - they are extremely calming to watch. Almost to a level of being ASMR or whatever that weird like, audiophile noise porn is lol. The lack of dialog is actually a welcome feature. I just sat back, enjoyed taking in all the various sounds and how they would make me feel/what they would make me think of and had a great frickin time watching your vid. Good on ya, buddy.
ikr. Like I'm not into forging a whole lot (I do enjoy it and would love to forge a sword one day but like you know) but I find these videos so relaxing that I watch them before I go to bed
Then you'd like Freerk Wieringa's videos on utube as....their actually more like movies. I've watched just about every one.
Madness that all this fettling and forging was done by hand back in the day
why is there this strange obsession with DAMASCUS for all types of blades, knives, cleavers, swords e.t.c.?
In its simplest terms a harder core means a finer more durable edge. And the outside pattern looks pretty lol. So you don't have to make the choice between pretty or usable.
Damascus in addition to being pretty can actually get sharper than uniform steel, the layers have slightly different hardnesses and when you sharpen them up it creates microscopic serrations on your edge that boost its cutting ability
"Total build time - 100 hours"
That was with modern power tools. I can only imagine how hard it was back in medieval times!
I’m honestly amazed at your genius. From editing choices, to feeling of the video, TO GOING AS FAR IN THE STRAIGHTENING PROCESS AS YOU DID. Sir I hope one day to learn from someone like you in smithing I can’t afford or even dream to afford a smithing set up but I can still strive. I’m glad there’s still masters at it as much as you are. I know you probably won’t read this but sincerely on every level i acknowledge your genius on EVERY level. Thank you for sharing. New sub today.
Dude he didn't straighten it properly it's suppose to be straightened before the heat treat because it makes the blade brittle
No master here forged in fire is more accurate than this
@@Youcantdothatbudloser
You really nailed that sword build.
I'll see myself out.
Nailed it
Come on, it was a good one
Really hammered that joke home…
Are you fixing to get beat on?
Insane. 4 weeks and 100+hrs into 15mins. This was satisfying to watch. Not to mention, now I'm tempted to ask if you sell them, even though I know I can't afford anything from you just yet. Cos the time, energy and dedication alone is worth paying for. Big ups. I've got my eye on you.
I love the way you forge stuff.
A very talent man !
Beautiful job !
That blade is such a beauty! and to think it was made from nails, wow!
Thank you for labeling each stage that really helps. Good work
Awesome! The Damascus cladding turned out amazing.
Beautiful sword and a wonderful job making it also!!!
Enjoyed your video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
❤ beautiful sword and great video. I now also understand the two part pommel construction used in many of these swords (allows for the peening) Thank you!
I love your work it´s always a pleasure to watch your videos , keep it up!
Jesus man. You never fail to blow me away. Your craftsmanship exceeds expectations every time. Keep up the good work bro
Thank you sooo much for not putting the nail steel in the cutting edge itself. i hate it when there are two types of steel in the blade...
I am honestly impressed how fast you forged the shape of the blade since Will Willis said it is generally one of the hardest swords to make.
Amazing work! Also my favorite sword!
Nicely done with hand hammering the blade!
Thanks for showing the weight of this sowrd by Kilograms. The fact that this is only 1.3 kg makeing me wanna play so much with this sword
5:37 Wow! (bad wow)
6:42 Wow! (good wow)
It would be funny to have your pummel like a Stone Cold Steve Austin flipping the bird
You should make a knife outta all the little metal shaving that come off of the hammer forge that’s been collected over awhile
That is such a gorgeous sword! Well worth the 100+ hours.
That's one gorgeous sword.
Interesting way how to put the hilt together, I've never saw this kind of construction.
That's the normal structure of swords like that. Maybe minus the modern threads =D
@@InsongWhang Really? I've seen early viking era swords (migration era - oakeshott type X) all the way up to post-viking norse style swords (petersen type AE & Oakeshott type XII) in museums and have never seen a releasable pin holding the lower pommel in place. Maybe someone replaced ALL the ancient swords with replicas to hide this from us and you the ONLY person on earth that knows it....maybe you the thief?!
@@marcburkett9834 Ok. They used modern threads.
Wow, this was an incredible find. Thanks CZcams algorithm!
Am really starting to love forging now 😅
Great build!
I wanted to say a small trick I saw on FAF. One smith put the tube in the forge to let it oxidize and let scaling form and then the billet came out very easily.
WOW! THAT"S BEAUTIFUL
Wow, dude, you *nailed* this!
Absolutely nailed it! Bravo!
Beautiful work!
Cool pattern welded idea...💪💪💪
Beautiful sword!
One of the best forging Videos I have ever seen Les grinding more Hammering Work nice
Keren banget bang pedang nya, paku bisa juga jadi baja Damaskus 👍
Definitely stealing the Ratchet Strap straightening jig idea. Love that.
Beautiful build
Again you deserve to keep to keep that, all you need left is dual viking war hawks and a spiked shield.
I've never seen someone heat treat the blade in the middle of the forging process.
Beautiful work. Makes you think how did they do all this in Viking times
Oh wow. That actually turned out beautiful. Thought it was going to look all scaly and burnt
Brilliant work 🧐😎
Awesome build.
Love the look of the Viking Sword
Thanks for the comment, Expect more videos soon. Send me a direct message.. I have a gift for you.......🎁
beautiful viking sword and pattern
Hey man great great build. My grandfather is a Viking archaeologist in Ireland, and he love something like that, he has a Claideamh Mòr as well
Thanks for the comment, Expect more videos soon. Send me a direct message.. I have a gift for you.......🎁
Que espada tan chingona!!!
That was awesome, can't wait until I have all these tools (which will be soon)!
Nice job well done
I watched an old rustic blacksmith who had the same problem of warping in the quench tank like yours. He found out that if you orient the horizontal tank to magnetic north the warping disappeared. When the metal is at quenching temp it is affected by the earth's magnetic fields. I hope you find this at least useful
AMAZING crucible steel Viking weapon but one thing is missing the runes saying +Ulfberh+t beautiful specimen of history man
You definitely nailed it.
I never knew Damascus was a sword, a handsome one too
Do you not have a straightening jig for your vice? Could have saved you those two hours.
Still, the end result can't be argued with. Looks great!
Great work , congratulations my friend
Weight's actually pretty good. Nice job.
Totally amazing
Bro unlocked the damascus camouflage skin for the viking sword
Nice result!
It will KEAL!! Awesome video.. thank you
I wonder if nitride nano coatings would be good for swords? Since i've been seeing ads of it being applied to metal tools to improve wear resistance
Will the nano coatings make the sword more practical or would it ruin the quality of the swords?
Awesome stuff man....I love your channel. Thank you
Great work dude, I really enjoyed watching this 👍👍
Looks incredible
Señor creo que le falto la parte del normalizado y/o se doblo porque la fragua era muy corta :(. En cualquier caso, saludos cordiales
Amazing work
It looks awesome
Actual Damascus! Thank you Sir!
just amazing
Damn fine work boss. The handle tapped in to shape against the hilt was real slick. But I'm a little disappointed in the screws for the pommel....
Yea i know.. Needed to make it disassemble-able for the time being
Nice work! What did you use to line your damascus canister? I've only ever seen white out or no white out, this looks like it has some advantages. Thanks!
cooked stainless steel foil, didn't work that great tbh
That's an awesome Viking eara sword!
You Definitely need to compete on Forged in Fire
Настоящий, боевой меч!
You nailed it
Very Nice. Call it The Rusty Busty.
that is beautiful mate😎👍👍
Impressive work.
Man I love Damascus steel great looking sword bro
Thats not actually Damascus
Such a cool sword, can you make one out of old saw blades? I wonder how it would look or ball bearings 😮
Axcellent work.
Impressive!
Gorgeous 🔥🔥🔥
Sehr sehr schöne Arbeit 🤜🖤🤛
I had about 6 warps to straighten out in a rapier a few years back...
I feel your pain
next time try to twist the blank of the blade. The drawing has become more beautiful. I served in Siberia - I saw the work of an old blacksmith. Super blades were forged by grandfather.
Did the straightening have any effect on the hardeness?
Would love to see a knife maker doing the Desperado throwing knives that Danny Trejo uses, hint hint.
@8:22 ...this sound is heaven!
What type of foil did you use in your can? I've only ever used white out.
Beautiful
Wow, beautiful.
What was the foil that you put in before the nails and steel powder?
