What is the name of that liquid that you put that steel into? Please reply🙏

Interesting ones spot hammer style? I will be totally trying. On anvil stands, can put stakes in the ground to stop anvil on wood block from moving.

Yeah no tong's 👍. So much easier.

I Ifound a piece of half inch metal found in my junk I plan on using it for an anvil and I have an old wore out toaster oven I'm going to try to make a forge out of the toaster oven an old hair dryer for a blower wish me luck please.. thank you for your golden videos sir...

New to this here channel...had to pause because you said if I don't have a car, I can't ask for directions? I'm interested in becoming a bladesmith, and you're saying I can't learn techniques before I purchase the tools and equipment to do the task? WoW 😒

What did he spray on it at the end?

When I was on the show that shall remain nameless. I normalize my blade 3 times. It was the only one that didn't take any damage. Ben told me it was the best heat treatment he's seen on the show 😂

Is there a particular oil used to bring out the pattern of the steel? I feel dumb asking, but it often seems like Smiths use something special for that but it's never said. I'm looking to get into smithing soon, and while I won't be forging Damascus for quite some time, having the knowledge stored away would be nice. Thank you for the detailed video as well.

"By hand" Starts with a band saw and electric saw.

Great video!

Loved this video. Bladesmithing is already in my heart as an art form even though I've never struck hot iron. Can't wait to get started.

Jason should stick to knives, he obviously knows nothing about music history. There are lots of documentaries on the Beatles, so instead of running his mouth about stuff and making himself look so ignorant, maybe he could watch one and that might clear up the facts about the issue for him. Love the knives, but being a slight TV personality doesn't make him a know it all on every subject. After his stupid comments I have a mind to unsub, it's that bad.

I don't get the idea behind 1500 degrees & plastic with flammable oil. Man that's dodgy

Now your here in my hometown I've gotta take your classes

Forge welding layers of the same steel , is for the pattern only.

Hi, just want to say thank you for this video. I am new to forging and your video was great. Your advice on just being a maker made a few things click for me and just wanted to share my appreciation.

Thank you for this video. I live in Sweden in an area where blacksmithing is a secret art and the blacksmiths keep it so. The usual answer I get when I go to a blacksmith and talk about blacksmithing is; I don’t what to create a competitor. This video is the start of me knowing what to do. I have tried blacksmithing a couple of times, but when you don’t know what to do or why, you get fed up really quickly. Now I can start properly.

Thanks for this gem. I like how common sense and basic logic intersect with facts and experience in your videos. Makes it real easy to learn 👍

The siliconing bit is best advice!

I really like Jason Knight as a teacher, also as a person. Nice charactered man 😎

I agree with everything except one thing. I bought a Work Tuff Gear knife and it was my first knife with a finger choil. Im not going to lie. I love using the finger choil for finer work.

I love how you bent your preform forward a bit to combat the sabering.

That's 4 heats for me to 1 for him.

This has been the most helpful video for me learning bladesmithing. Thank you for doing this.

I’ve been wondering, is this laborious method how the steel for all those cheap Pakistani knives is made? It’s a fact that people in primitive industries work hard!

It may be by hand, but it’s a 2-man process! A striker is like having a small trip hammer. It’s a lot of work because tool steel, even yellow hot, is pretty stiff. It doesn’t move easily!

So I wonder how he really feels about quenching in PVC pipe. :)

Brother I appreciate your method and explanations.

I appreciate your no bs video, raw and information filled. I have been debating for years, yet have held back. I am coming to the end of my time in the military, and I realize that I am going to need something to invest in for the long run, that helps to get me out of bed in the morning. I enjoyed your forged in fire time, but this video was honestly my tipping point. I look forward to diving into this skillset with a passion, and I appreciate people like you that have kept it going. Thank you sir.

Thank you for doing these videos. I'm just starting out at bladesmithing and live in a small town so this is the only way I can get the information. Again thank you for doing this

Thanks great video watched it a few times honestly.

Hey I’m buying some steel for knife and sword making, what thickness do you recommend? I’m buying 80crv2

You are extremely inspiring sir

No power hammer needed, just at 5:45 anf other spots have someone else hold it while one hammers. So you dont need a power hammer, just an assistant.

Thank you for this. I just bought a PW 153 lbs. It is in excellent shape (I think from 1 -1 -3), one from 1905 made in England. So excited as I had a Volcan 90lbs 1940s (not so good).

I have a question! Where are you? I wanna know if u am in the same area as you to maybe take your class. Chances are low but I figured I’d ask, and if not how do you recommend finding a class to take that I can trust?

I finally got a forge and anvil just need the gas

That “half on, half off hammer technique” is something I need to get better at, it moves metal crazy fast

What is he spraying on there to turn it black?

Thanks for you're awesome videos I've been brute forging chef knives like crazy you're insight was 💯

You briefly mentioned O1 tool steel , I know the w1 designation is for water quench for manufacturing purposes and the O1 designation is for oil quenching for manufacturing purposes. What are your thoughts on O1 for knife making?

Just getting started myself. I made my first knife around 5 years ago at my Batchelor party. My best friend took me to a class. Since then I have been working and slowly gathering tools and supplies. My second knife ever is almost ready for heat treat. I love to cook so I’m focusing on making knives I can use in the kitchen. We raise our own chickens, I hunt deer in season, and we garden during the planting and growing season. What should I use for handles as a beginner? Scales or burn in? There is plenty of hickory at my disposal but I have not yet cut near as much as I like to and I know the wood needs to be stabilized before using as a handle. Any advice would be MOST appreciated! Thanks in advance!

no such thing as modern Damascus steel, If you knew what you were doing you'd know that.

Real Damascus has a nanotechnological archetectural arrangement to its molecular structure. If your steel doesn't, THEN YOU ARE NOT MAKING DAMASCUS!

The only thing I'm missing is a place to smith. Hate being stuck renting an apartment, hopefully I can get a home of my own within the next decade.

At the beginning of every episode large scans their youngest daughter across the checkout lane and the screen reads the new message for the beginning of the show and due to now we have smartphones you will be able to pause it and blow it up and read the message clearly

Nice to see that somebody else has been watching The Simpsons if you want to see a hidden message though there is one when they Marge scans their youngest daughter lacrosse the checkout station at the store pause it and look closely at the red words on the screen

18:55 whata that liquid?

Question. What is the technique to do it by hand without welding the pieces?

Damn, dude. I watched this video about 5 times, then went out and tried it your way. I had a point in a barstock in seconds. GREAT information and technique!
