  • Of all the knives Iโ€™ve seen this is truly the one I would most want. Iโ€™m old and canโ€™t afford much but if I had the money I would surely buy one just like that one!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

    Beautiful knife, I love the use of reclaimed steel and a raw chunk of wood! Greatness isnโ€™t always expensive ๐Ÿ‘

    I love that bold pattern! The more bold random patterns are so much more eye catching for me. I need to get back in my shop/barn and forge something. It's just been too hot in TN.
  • I liked it, firstly, you didn't show the welding arc, secondly, I thought you were having unnecessary fun cutting and forging good steel, but an interesting pattern came out, and thirdly, and most importantly, you created a solid piece of knife. Realy god job
  • @MrDoss89
    It's definitely one of your best. I'd be proud if that was my work.

    Elijah, that pattern and blade turned out great! Thanks for sharing!
  • Wicked pattern! Not sure what brand that trowel was but Iโ€™m pretty sure the Marshalltown brand was a hardened steel. My brother was a commercial brick and block layer his whole adult life and trowels were his favorite tool. No kidding I watched him use them as knives and machetes when needed, cutting whatever needed it on the job-site. He would cut the steel band on pallets of brick and never had an edge deformation. Seeing you turn one into a beautiful knife brought back some memories! Thanks for the videos
  • By far one of the best paterns I've seen you come up with to date, Awesome job!!!
  • @brysonalden5414
    Clearly, twisting the billet added serious differentiation between the steels. Beautiful.

    I've seen you struggle with forge welding in the past but this sir, is a win. Blade looks amazing.
