    Erick that is one sick blade bro! Don't you love it when experimentation and hard work produce such an excellent functional peice of art! Next time add some 1084 and coffee etch for a whole other layer of contrast! I love that we are all jumping into this cu mai stuff right now! A+ man

    • @theriversexperience9383
      @theriversexperience9383  Před 3 lety

      When you see the handle scales you will get the contrast. I will be making another one in march that will have some cool contrast and a bunch of craziness going on.

  • @TyrellKnifeworks
    @TyrellKnifeworks Před 3 lety +1

    It came out beautiful! I think it was a good idea to leave it shiny. It should look amazing with the handle you have planned!

  • @michaelzinz4658

    An old roaster will work great for a quench tank and heating up the quench oil

    Awesome work man. It’s beautiful! I’d like to forge something like this out of quarters if possible. I know that probably going to be very difficult though haha

  • @alphaomegasurvivalsupply6548

    That thing is sick, cant wait to see it once those handles are on. Definitely tippy top shelf work my friend, your getting better with every one. This one is going to be hard to top lol.

    Hello, nice grinding skills and a very nice knife. How will the copper hold up in use? I wish i had a place to try and do stuff like this.

  • @JohnJohnson-bg2oo
    @JohnJohnson-bg2oo Před 2 lety +1

    Watched you make that a while ago, and it's still one of the most amazing knives I've ever seen!! Where do you get your 15n20 from? All of the sawmills here in Idaho don't give away OR sell the worn out bandsaw blades, and I don't want to deface United states currency, so any kind of information would be great!

    • @theriversexperience9383

      I get the 15n20 from Pops Knife Supply.

      @@theriversexperience9383 thanks, I just built a little forge, and tried the mokume gane with a couple of quarters. Turned out alright, but I'm just getting started. Was given some circular sawmill blades, I've been told they're 80crv2, and have made a couple knives so far, and wanted to make bolsters? Guards, not sure of the terminology yet, but right before the handle! 🤣

    idk if I like this one, Mokume Gane is supposed to look like wood grain... not oil in water.

    Could this project work with silver?

    • @theriversexperience9383
      @theriversexperience9383  Před 2 lety +1

      Some people use nickle silver but I would assume it could be done with just silver. It would be a pricey gamble though.

      @@theriversexperience9383 True, however, consider how well it would sell especially considering all of the individuals out there doubt there who believe in werewolves and vampires. Let alone the number of views you would get. Just putting that on the corner of your table for you to consider.
