Blacksmithing: Centuries-Old Skill: Master Craftsman Forging a Sickle ♥️🫡♥️

[@ericsprado4631]

The smith is very skilled. Whoever is doing the subtitles needs to study up a bit.. The stump is not repurposed as an anvil-it is an anvil stand. The anvil is steel..-As a smith with 60 years experience the most amazing thing to me is his ability to do all that forging and still have a clean shirt. I walk into my shop and my shirt is instantly black.. Great video.

[@PersianHandCraftsP]

Dear Master, I don't know where on earth you live, but I am very grateful for your kind message. It is absolutely true. That old tree trunk is the base of the anvil, not the anvil itself. ✔✔🌹🌹🌹🌹

Now I know where to go for a good hand scythe.I have seen them made before, but this man took extra steps......and used REBAR to start from. You just have to respect that kind of skill.

[@PersianHandCraftsP]

Thanks a lot. 😊😊😉😉......but...I'm really sorry. It was because of me (the videographer). I asked this great master to make a sickle for the thin grass in my small garden at home, very quickly, so that I could film it in the short time I had with him. And of course, it shouldn't be too expensive, because I might only use it once. The master insisted on giving me the tool that is at minute 1:20, but I refused and said that I wanted a tool that I could film in this short time. And the result was that many people criticized the master's work in the comments. But it was my fault. I will soon go to this great master and film one of his wonderful works. 😔😔🙏🙏

Матерьиал для косы конечно дрек полный, и кстати арматура не закаляеться, так как содержит мало углерода..

[@sekishuusaiyagyuu7517]

Прежде чем позорить русских своей безграмотной речью и пустословием, вам следовало не полениться и хотя бы прочесть ГОСТ 5781-82. Например, класс арматурной стали АIV(А600) - марка С80 с содержанием углерода от 0.74 до 0.82% прекрасно поддается закалке. Согласно зарубежным стандартам, для производства арматуры также используется немало марок не просто с высоким содержанием углерода, но и легированных хромом, марганцем, алюминием и т.д.

[@welder260]

Арматура бывает разных марок и классов!

[@PersianHandCraftsP]

Мне очень жаль. Это из-за меня (видеооператора). Я попросил этого великого мастера сделать серп для тонкой травы в моем маленьком саду дома, очень быстро, чтобы я мог снять его за то короткое время, которое у меня было с ним. И, конечно, он не должен быть слишком дорогим, потому что я могу использовать его только один раз. Мастер настоял на том, чтобы дать мне инструмент, который находится на минуте 1:20, но я отказался и сказал, что мне нужен инструмент, который я мог бы снять за это короткое время. И в результате многие люди критиковали работу мастера в комментариях. Но это была моя вина. Я скоро пойду к этому великому мастеру и сниму одну из его замечательных работ. 😔😔🙏🙏

Danke, lieber Freund. Ja, es ist wahr. Der Stamm dieses kräftigen Baumes, der als Ambossbasis dient, liegt etwa drei Meter unter der Erde. Und das ist sehr attraktiv.🌹🌹✔✔

[@mruss381]

People being overly spergy and critical, you don't need very high carbon steel for a sickle/scythe. Ranges vary, but .6 to .7 will do fine. Rebar varies as well, but is most like mild steel, so the low carbon end admittedly. However, considering you'll be swathing with it and not chopping wood or hammering, I think these sickles will do just fine.

[@PersianHandCraftsP]

Thank you for your attention and explanation, dear friend. I will soon post a video of this master's very powerful work.🌹🌹🌹✔✔✔✔

[@adrianjagmag]

0.6-0.7 is high carbon. Rebar is usually much lower (though it depends on the grade). But as you said you don't need high carbon for hand scythes.

[@mruss381]

Curieux, le fer a béton est un acier doux qui n’est pas destiné a faire des outils de coupe…prenez plutôt de l’acier à ressort beaucoup plus adapté à ce genre d’utilisation.

[@PersianHandCraftsP]

Merci pour votre suggestion. J'ai vu pendant le tournage qu'ils utilisaient des métaux et des ressorts plus résistants pour fabriquer des outils plus solides, mais comme cet outil était destiné à couper l'herbe molle, il a été fabriqué de cette manière afin qu'il soit moins coûteux et prenne moins de temps pour le consommateur. ✔✔❤

Absolutely true, my friend. I saw that for heavy work and thick branches, much stronger and springier alloys were used. But this example was made for a small space and little grass, because the person who ordered this work had very little grass. And since the stronger alloy cost him several times more, he did not want it. Please also watch the end of the video to see how this scythe worked. Thank you for your attention.🌹🌹

Pseudo Heat treatment on an non hardenable steel and still trying to hammer it after the pseudo quench is a joke ..., and it does not even cut in 1 time the grass ... Why not use spring steel and make a more durable tool ... This one gonna last 1 week and go to dusbin after that

@@PersianHandCraftsP How can a piece of an old car spring cost more than new rebar? You made a plasticine sickle and still make excuses.

[@PersianHandCraftsP]

🙏

[@MrRangiku01]

​@@asdertrender7555 if you do just a little bit of research you will find new rebar goes for approximately $3-7 for a 10ft stick while a scrap yard will charge you around $25-40 for a coil spring. Also used coil springs can be rather dangerous to work with do to the stress they are put through which can cause micro fractures and cracks that will ruin the work you put in to making the blade so most bladesmiths opt for buying new spring steel from a distributor which will usually run you approximately $10-55 per piece depending on size/weight of course...
