      Exactly. Then you add in that the patch was significantly more obvious with the paint (like he basically could have just sharpied a bright red circle on the damned thing) and it completely killed it.

      @mandoky1647 Před 5 lety +125

      I kind of get why because the sanding from the plate replacement looks tacky, but If you really want to get technical you could use a variable speed grinder with a low grade scotch bright pad and polished those scratches out. Then you could kind of have the new shiny original look, and of course anti rust it.

    • @mandoky1647
      @mandoky1647 Před 5 lety +41

      Also when you sand with a grinder don't do small little movements. That just makes it dig in more and create more scratches. Go with the contour of the shape your are sanding.

      I would've talked the customer into a black oxide instead of that dumb spray paint choice. If I were the craftsman I probably would've told the guy I can't spray paint it but I can apply an actual black oxide and he can ruin it himself if he wants to.

  • @coffeebeanben
    @coffeebeanben Před 2 lety +23

    Going through the comments that have been made already, there's a lot to take away in this video. Here are my pros and cons:
    PROS:
    1. I like it that this was done with a relatively minimal tool set. Some restorations have endless grinding stones, files, rotary tools, and other bits at their disposal; this one's more approachable.
    2. I do like the look of the black vs. polished steel.
    3. Attention to detail on the edging and polishing is good.
    4. I like the attention to detail when straightening the piece, especially with the bowing marks and applying the torch to let the cooling do a lot of the work.
    5. The welding of the square patch shows good welding technique.
    CONS:
    1. The black / shiny contrast could have been achieved with a cold bluing fluid, which would have lasted longer. If you're going to do the paint and call it a restoration, I'd have liked to see some filler in the substantial rust pitting.
    2. The edge-hardening exercise seems largely irrelevant, because it looks like the piece is only mild steel and not high-carbon steel. I say this because a) Grinding the object fails the Spark Test, and b) details on how the smaller blade is attached indicates that it was welded and not forged.
    3. If you're going to do an edge quench, use oil, not water, and make sure the heat is hot and even before quenching; don't quench in sections.
    4. Patching the center of a fairly thick piece like that will create stress fractures in the metal during cooling if you weld in a square.
    4a. Instead of replacing the torched-out holes with a metal patch, I'd have cut them out and left the hole, similar to what's done on the small blade.

    2 things, first the holes in it could've been cut into a decorative hole, which was occasionally historically done on weapons. Second, the dang heat treat. The blade wasn't near hot enough for a good quench it needs to be orange. A slightly bright orange but not much hotter, all that happened was normalization (softening) of the steel. And because the "treat" was done in sections, it makes different parts of the blade different steel grains, making it weaker overall. And holy lord he quenched in WATER. That's how you get cracks and fractures in a blade. Quench in oil, never water.

      @@jmeister7482 the problem with water is it cools the molecules too fast. And something that's rigid and it gets cooked to quickly, it becomes brittle. As I said, it breaks apart the grain structure of the steel. Oil cools the blade relatively quickly but not too quickly, making it hard with a little bit of flex instead of too hard and very brittle. And yes, the oil does tend to catch fire when you put in a piece of metal that's around 1500 degrees but once you take out the blade, the flame goes out. That just happens. It's not dangerous, especially in an outdoor or well ventilated quench tank

    Hi professional knife maker here, some tips on your hardening.
    1.Rather get a container that can fit the entire object you're wanting to harden because you'll get an evenly hardened blade. Also use oil instead of water, helps avoid cracking
    2. Can use a torch like you have to heat up the blade but make sure the edge at least is evenly heated and use a magnet to check when it's ready to quench. All steels have varying temperatures they'll harden at but they'll become non magnetic when they're ready so heat up evenly alomg the whole edge until magnetic can't stick to it.
    3. Sounds like a myth but is real when you harden point the tip north to avoid warping. This is when it becomes magnetic again amd is effected by earth's magnitism.
    Last thing temper your blade at 180 degrees Celsius for most carbon steel for 1 hour 3 times after it cool to room temperature.

      Would be better if it was carbon black oil that is seasoned on through repeated heat treating. The heat treat would also help to normalize the blade tension after edge hardening and welding the plate. The whole blade should have been annealed before edge hardening. It is actually very dangerous to use a heavy plate that might shatter on a long moment arm; probability is higher that a large, heavy, and sharp piece comes flying off.

      It would have to be a prop, because that axe will smash to bits when it is smacked against something as hard as bone. His hardening quench was dumb, the metal is meant to be hot enough to not hold a magnet to it, bright orange, to be then quenched. And then you should also know the carbon make up of that metal to decide on a water or oil quench. Water will make it super hard, but more likely to warp, and also crack the metal. Oil quench is safer for people who obviously do not know what they are doing.
