I'd kill (not literally... maybe) for a chef's knife like that. What a mindblowing beautiful and perfect piece of art. Congratulations for your work and God bless!
Just in case you don't know, this is technically not "real" damascus steel. It has those patterns, but it's not made how it was made. The real damascus technique is definitely ultra-high carbon crucible steel, though the specifics are lost to history. It's a fascinating subject! Hope you will look up more stuff about it, and begin to love this odd and interesting type of steel!
I'm not sure why you hollowed out the middle portion of the blade, then made it thicker towards the edge, it's extremely thick towards the edge, while it may look cool it does not make a good chefs blade, the more your sharpen this the thicker it becomes behind the edge, that's normal, but this knife goes beyond normal, a typical chefs knife has a full flat grind, a sabre flat grind, or a hollow ground, or partial hollow grind, all of these grinds provide strength while giving it a very thin edge that will not increase drastically in thickness behind the bevel, also the multiple extreme angles will not be so good for cutting thinly, it is very cool looking, but seems not so useful in the kitchen, especially over time, and I'm curious how it will cut through different foods, not well I'm guessing, there is a reason the shape of a chef's knife is pretty uniform and has not changed much over a long time, at least not the thinness and grind, i think it is a very novel design, and i have to admit it looks very cool, but I'm skeptical about is performance especially over time, but that shouldn't deter you from trying new things, i bet i could find a perfect use for a blade shape and grind like that,
What a beautiful piece of work sir!!!! Could you do that with a Contractor stake? I have one that i have always wanted to see made into a piece of art like this. What would something like that cost me?
This is the only way to make Damascus (well without the fuller which is pointless in a knife.) People use screws or twist the metal to make pretty patterns but you don't get the benefit of the sharpness of layered steel anyway other than having flat layers or folded steel.
The strongest swords in the world were made with only 3 blades. If a sword were made from it, it would be the strongest sword in the world with 20 blades.
Your tools do a wonderful job. Now do it with a hammer instead of an automatic press, and an actual whetstone, not a several thousand rpm belt sander. Then I'll be impressed.
Thanks for watching, check out the website link in my profile for available knives
Why do you dunk it in oil before forging it? (Legit question, trying to be educated💀😂)

Truly stunning work on this mate!!
That bevel / fuller up the centre takes this to a completely different level of craftsmanship!!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks for watching, much appreciated 🙌
I can not find the words for that. Beautiful is not enough to describe how it looks like. Congratulations, nice job!
Thank you very much!
Beautiful, don't think I've seen a Damascus kitchen knife with fullers like that before
wow... that's an art
An art that whatever dumbass with a welder, a DIY forge, and some scraps of metal can replicate. All he needs is a youtube tutorial.
Beautiful work! Much respect ✊
Thanks!
@@lewgriffinknives216where is the knife available
Wow!!! BEAUTIFUL KNIFE!! THAT'S AN IMPRESSIVE EDGE!! HARDLY ANY FRICTION, and it slices CLEAN THROUGH BOTH EDGES SIMULTANEOUSLY!!!😮
You're a gifted craftsman.
Thanks much appreciated

The primary bevels are thinned on stones. It is called S-grind which lightens the blade giving balance while reducing surface contact with food
Absolutely beautiful, I'd pay $500 for you to do the same thing but turn it into a Seax instead.
😊
It's like a timeless peice of art cuting & shaping the nice memorys of cooking
This a beautiful video, beautiful music and a work of art for a knife 👌💯
Amazing art brother well done ❤
Thanks much appreciated
Beautifully Functional! Thank You, J
What a beautiful piece of work sir!!!! Could you do that with a Contractor stake? I have one that i have always wanted to see made into a piece of art like this. What would something like that cost me?
Thanks, not sure what a contractor stake is but my custom orders are closed at the moment. Work is available through my website
The music brought me to another time

beautiful knife
Dude your blades are stellar. 👍🤙❤️
Thanks much appreciated!
I like that design a lot.
Потрясающая работа. Произведение искусства. Интересно какая стоимость ножа.
Stunning
Es muy hermoso el patrón damasco que conseguiste amigo😮❤❤
Thanks!🙏
Looks amazing, well done
As a blacksmith for over 25 years I can say for sure that that’s one of the blades ever made.
Much appreciated 🙏
Beautiful work!!! 👍
Thank you very much!
oh my goodness! i want to be this good one day
🙏
Wish I had the resources to make my own
I love the profile, the pattern, the s-gringd! Noce
Thanks!
The strongest swords in the world were made with only 3 blades. If a sword were made from it, it would be the strongest sword in the world with 20 blades.
Wow, interesting
I would frame that masterpiece and hang onto my wall
Thanks that's high praise 🙏
Precioso trabajo.Excelente
beautiful knife that’s it 👍👍👍👍
Beautiful 😊
Many thanks!
nice video
Thanks
Pure art
it's a beautiful knife
Wish I had one
That is beautiful! I have to ask why you dip the metal in oil first though?
Thanks! To help the forge welding
I like the part where he shows you him making the knife
It is beautiful magnificent that is a knife with which a Greek god cooks
is it from damascus?
Nice work of what we saw of it .. kinda fast .. it was like poor, and your gone....
How to make a knife in four steps....
Good work 👏 🙌
Thank you 🙌
Where do you get the angle grinder abbrasive cup wheels?
I don't get them anymore they're a bit dangerous, available online a few places though
Amazing pattern,great forge!
Thank you! Cheers!
Какой красивый узор😯😌
Amazing!

Knives are available through my website every few weeks
Gorgeous
🙌
You use kerosene when you forge weld ?

That’s nice
This is art

Thanks 👍
Can we buy it? Please 😢😢😢
Can i buy it?

Beautiful work
kerja sempurna dengan akurasi tinggi,sangat mengagumkan.
Guy ordered a 24.99 Pakistani "demascus" and showed us the result. Nice
Think you didn't watch the video properly
@@lewgriffinknives216 I definitely did. There is about 29 more steps after crunching the metal together. Maybe you just made a Pakistani idk
in no way does thius look like pakimaskus.
سلام دوست عزیز ،من این چاقو رو می خوام میشه لطف کنی و بگی که چجوری میتونی به دستم برسونی ممنون میشم ❤
Hello. Via the newsletter on my website
Maybe that’s coal🤔 correct me if I’m wrong🤜🏿🤛🏻
Nope not coal. Which part?
Beautiful
Thank you! Cheers!
I need wolverine claws from xmen make it silver
I'm kind of stupid, actually just stupid, so I have to ask: what's a food release blade?
It's a concaved blade so there's less flat surface to reduce food sticking
Maybe a knife for food but i don't recommend using it in fights because it lacks balance
Crayons 😻😻
Ich möchte so ein Messer gerne kaufen ..wo kann ich das kaufen ??
On my website, subscribe to the newsletter for an update when new knives are available
Can someone explain why they use layers of steel instead of just forging a solid thick piece of steel?
It is to create a pattern
Thank you. I just learned that. Very cool
the technique is called damascus bruh..

I'm from Damascus and its not the easy to make the same bro
Sorry, but it's not Damascus steel😢
It is
how many type of metal did you use for the damascus pattern? what are they?
1095 and 15n20 steel
Wunderschön!!!!

I misread that as ghetto knife 😂
It could be 🤔
I need one how can i get it

EXELENTE.
*IT WILL KEEL*
I don't understand why kitchen knives are made from Damascus steel. However, there is a possibility of introducing defects such as delamination.
Its pretty. Damascus serves no purpose other than its pretty.
@@kniferewiewscool2646 It will have enough function to decorate a room as an ornament.
Fark thats sexy
Was ist das für eine Flüssigkeit, wo er es Rein tut.
Es ist sehr schön mit dem Strukturen. 👍
It's ferric chloride
Dreamworthy.
Perfekt👍
Wtf is food release blade?
The flat part of the blade is concaved to reduce the surface area and help food release while also reducing weight

Not Damascus
But ,indonesian keris motif
